The Acoustic camera, also known as an acoustic beamforming array enables the user to visualise different sound sources at different frequencies and source strengths.
The resolution and ability to resolve sound sources spaced closely apart, and at lower frequencies, is determined by the overall size of the aperture and the number of microphones of used in the acoustic camera.
Although with smart software, image manipulation and deconvolution techniques on the beamformed results might give added resolution, when using the acoustic camera, the shape, dimensions of the array and the number of microphones will determine the resolution of the acoustic camera.
The Norsonic Hextile is a module based approach to the acoustic camera that gives the user both portability and great resolution for a wide range of measurement situations. The array dish is based on a hexagon shape, given it both its name, and the ability to combine several tiles into larger systems. Nor
