Product Development
For a holistic approach towards user-centered design, it is vital to include acoustics in your design processes. Knowing how your product emits noise, and using that to effectively implement noise control measures, can greatly improve the overall user experience.
Pleasant-sounding products are created by controlling the acoustics in product development. But how can you control the acoustic performance of your design?
Mechanical or electronic moving components can cause vibrations, which can turn into structural or airborne noise.
Our CAM1K and CAM64 can visualize these vibrations in high detail in order to identify the sound source and path. In turn this can be used to either remove, change or block the sound path in next iterations of your prototyes.

Noise Control
Products that emit excessive or unwanted noise are often seen as nuisances and are likely to be avoided. Not only is this generally not what you want to achieve, but external factors – such as government policies or competition – can also drive the need to design a quieter version of your product.
With our sound cameras, you no longer have to rely on a trial-and-error approach to solving your noise issue. Quickly identify which components are the biggest contributors to the overall emitted noise, and visualize how these vibrations originate and reach your users’ ears. Now you know exactly where to focus your redesign efforts, saving you time, resources and simultaneously improve your customer satisfaction.
Sound Quality
Sometimes it’s not just about the overall noise level, but also how a user experiences the sound in relation to the product. For example, vacuum cleaners might be loud but reducing the noise levels can actually negatively impact the perceived quality. A silent vacuum cleaner tends to be seen as ineffective, or even broken.
Our acoustic consultants can assist in creating a benchmark of which sound components are perceived as preferable in your product category. This allows you to verify new iterations based on their sound quality, without relying on time-intensive qualitative feedback activities.
Customer reference
Products are designed to answer a specific need from the customers. But a good product goes beyond just usability and answering that need. Cooler Master uses sound cameras to improve the overall user experience of their products. This approach allows Cooler Master to not only deliver better products, but also more silent products.
Acoustic Design Cycle
We have developed the Acoustic Design Cycle to improve sound behaviour in products. With the Design Cycle, you steer your development process from start to product launch to prevent and solve sound issues in product development. Met meer dan 10 jaar ervaring in akoestisch ontwerp, willen we bedrijven helpen om stillere producten te ontwikkelen en omgevingsgeluid te verminderen.
