Definitions

  • a suitable acoustic panel member may be transparent or translucent .
  • Typical panel members may be generally polygonal, often substantially rectangular.
  • Plural transducer means may be at or near different edges, at least for substantially rectangular panel members.
  • the or each transducer may be piezo-electric, electrostatic or electro-mechanical.
  • the or each transducer may be arranged to launch compression waves into the panel edge, and/or to deflect the panel edge laterally to launch transverse bending waves along a panel edge, and/or to apply torsion across a panel corner, and/or to produce linear deflection of a local region of the panel .
  • mean square deviation assessment As aid to assessment at least of smoothness of power output, it is further proposed herein to use techniques based on mean square deviation from some reference.
  • Use of the inverse of mean square deviation has the benefit of presenting smoothness for assessment according directly to positive values and/or representations.
  • a suitable reference can be individual to each case considered, say a median-based, such as represented graphically by a smoothed line through actual measured power output over a frequency range of interest. It is significantly helpful to mean square deviation assessment for the reference to have a be normalised standard format; and for the measured acoustic power output to be adjusted to fit that standard format.
  • Beneficial such control provision includes significant clearance to local planar members (say about 1 - 3 centimetre) and/or slots or other apertures in adjacent peripheral framing or support provision or grille elements. It is further feasible and advantageous deliberately to arrange for such as mechanical damping to result in acoustic modification including loss in the area 81, or even also marginally thereof, not to be obstructed, at least for higher frequencies. This may be done by choice of materials, e.g. monolithic polycarbonate or acrylic and/or suitable surface coating or laminated construction. Resulting effective concentration of acoustic radiation to marginal regions about plural drive transducers particularly facilitates reproduction of more than one sound channel, at least for near- field listening as for playing computer games or like localised virtual sound stage applications. Further away, merging even of multiple as-energised sound sources need not be problematic when summed, at least for such as audio visual presentations .
