For a good long while now, IK Multimedia has been helping to satisfy the mobile noodling needs of electric git-fiddlers with a succession of instrument interfaces that bridge the gap between a smart ...

The sounds aren't just a scientific curiosity, though. The tenuous gas and plasma that drifts between the galaxies in galaxy ...

Acoustic lenses are remarkable devices that just got cooler. A recent presentation at SIGGRAPH 2019 showed that with the help of 3D printing, it is possible to build the acoustic equivalent of optical ...

GIK Acoustics’ Sound Block StackPack includes a trio of modular acoustic panels that can be free standing or wall mounted. The room is the most overlooked — and most important — component in any ...

Taking inspiration from a popular executive toy ("Newton's cradle"), researchers have built a device -- called a nonlinear acoustic lens -- that produces highly focused, high-amplitude acoustic ...

Researchers have developed a method to control sound waves, using a computational approach to inversely design acoustic filters that fit within an arbitrary 3-D shape while achieving target sound ...

Researchers from the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) are studying an Inca building from the mid-15th century ...

Synthetic, sound-silencing structures—acoustic metamaterials can block 94% of sounds. This ring of materials will be able to make vacuum cleaners, air conditioners, fans and other devices and products ...
