Development of Hardware and Software Complex "Dummy Head" With the Use of Non-Professional Equipment

Abstract

This paper presents the results of research on the fundamental possibility of creating a hardware and software complex for acoustic examination of premises using non-professional hardware. It is shown that for such a creation it is necessary to adjust the characteristics of the measuring path, taking into account the non-uniformity of the amplitude-frequency characteristics of the subsystem "speaker-microphone". Using a two-channel measuring system adjusted in this way, experimental studies aimed at assessing the intelligibility of speech distorted by reverberation were performed.
