The chair of Acoustics and Haptics has a large portfolio of acoustic measurement technology, as well as special acoustic rooms, such as

• a large anechoic chamber,
• an echoic chamber
• the Multi-Modalen Measurement Laboratory.

To ensure the comparability of research results, the measurement environments are designed complying with recent standards. Besides the acoustic characterization and further development of the measurement subjects and materials, the optimization of known and development of new, innovative measurement methods is a field of activity of the chair.

Frequently conducted sound and vibration measurements include:

Sound Radiation (e.g. Sound emission of home appliances)

• Sound Power Measurements (Echoic chamber: EN ISO 3740,
  Intensity Probe: EN ISO 9614)
• Sound Intensity Measurement
• Directivity
• Electroacoustic characterization of Loudspeakers

Machine- and Vehicle Acoustics (e.g. Vibration analysis on a car tire)

• Modal Analysis
• Transfer Pfath Analysis
• Order Analysis
• Laserinterferometrie

Room Acoustics (Schallabsorptionsmessung im Hallraum)

• Measurement of the Sound Absorption Coefficient (Echoic chamber: EN ISO 354, KUNDT‘s Tube EN ISO 105342)
• Reverbation Time
• Sound Level Measurement
• Virtual microphone array for measuring room impulse responses and room simulation in a multi-modal measurement laboratory

Hearing Acoustics (e.g. binaurale measurements in a  anechoic chamber)

• Binaurale Recording and Playback
• Audiometrie
