About the product

With ACO’s HATS (Dummy Head) that complies with ANSI and IEC standards, measurements can be made taking effects by diffraction or reflection that occurs when the acoustic wave propagates near the head and body into consideration. It uses omnidirectional type microphone and it is possible to record the sound with high presence that is very close to the real sound heard by human ear. (Binaural recording)
It is ideal for evaluation of headphones or earphones and measurement of automobile interior acoustic field. Also, highly precise analysis for architectural acoustics can be achieved by using Handheld Analyzer.

TYPE 8328A has ear simulator coupler (both ears) and is suitable for development/evaluation of headphones or earphones or measurement of acoustic characteristics of cell phones, etc.
TYPE 8328B has 2 microphones positioned near the ear canals and is suitable for measurement of automobile interior acoustic environment (interior noise, voice recognition), reflecting effects on response caused by human head and body.

Case Studies

■ Measurement for development or evaluation of headphones/earphones
■ Measurement for acoustic characteristics of cell phones, etc.
■ Binaural recording
■ Measurement for Head Related Transfer Function (HRTF)
■ Measurement of automobile interior acoustic environment (interior noise, voice recognition)

When performing acoustic measurements in the car, existence of human body in relatively small room cubic capacity cannot be ignored. For that reason, it is essential to make measurement of acoustic characteristics using HATS that simulates upper torso of human body having microphones at the positions of ears. It enables measurement of phenomena that are peculiar to the automobile interior including effects of human body, which is otherwise impossible to measure with ordinary microphones.
In addition, by using FFT analysis software SpectraPLUS-SC, analysis of 2ch frequency into cosideration for both of left and right ears, and measurement of phase and transfer function can be performed.
