As some of the sound is absorbed at every reflection on the home theatre’s acoustic wall panels, it dies away ultimately. The time that it takes for the sound to die away is known as the echo time and is dependent on both the size of the home theatre room, and the amount of sound absorbed at every reflection.

Acoustics
1) Acoustics refers to vibrations that are audible to humans, ranging from 20-20,000 Hertz. All sounds originate from object vibrations.
2) Key characteristics of sound include requiring a medium to propagate, having a finite velocity, and traveling at different speeds in different materials. Sounds can be classified by pitch, timbre, and intensity.
3) Important factors that affect building acoustics include optimizing reverberation time, avoiding uneven loudness or focusing due to interference or resonance, and reducing echoes and noise. Absorbing materials and proper ventilation help address these factors.
Acoustics buildings
Acoustics is the study of sound waves and how they are generated, propagated, and received. When designing buildings, several acoustical factors must be considered, including reverberation, focusing of sound, echoes, unwanted resonance, interference, and extraneous noise. Reverberation is the persistence of sound after the sound source stops emitting sound, and the reverberation time depends on the size, surface materials, and absorption coefficients of the space. The Sabine formula relates reverberation time to the volume and absorption of a space. Proper acoustics in buildings ensures sound is uniformly distributed and factors like echoes, resonance, and interference are minimized.
Building Acoustics
Acoustics is the scientific study of sound, including how it behaves and is perceived. It deals with properties of sound waves like reflection, refraction, absorption, and interference. Acoustics is important for learning environments and other spaces where noise can be distracting or carry too much. Good acoustics involve distributing sound well, creating a sense of intimacy, and having proper reverberation times. Factors like reverberation time, loudness, echoes, and sound reflections off surfaces can impact architectural acoustics. A variety of materials like sound absorbers, reflectors, and diffusers are used to control sound.
What is echo
An echo is the reflection of sound caused when a sound wave bounces off a surface back to the listener. For an echo to be distinguishable, the sound needs to travel at least 75 meters away from the source and back, taking over half a second. This is because sound closer than that distance will overlap with the original sound and not be a separate reflection. Examples of echoes include those produced by wells, buildings, and enclosed rooms.
Acoustics I PPT.pdf
The document discusses key concepts in acoustics including:
1. Acoustics covers the properties and transmission of sound, and architectural acoustics applies these principles to buildings.
2. Important acoustic concepts include frequency, wavelength, amplitude, intensity measured in decibels, and reverberation.
3. A room's acoustics are determined by how sound waves propagate and are reflected off surfaces based on their material and shape.
4. Reverberation is the gradual decay of sound in a room after the source stops due to multiple reflections, and is measured by reverberation time.
Physics reverberation
Sound travels through reflection in auditoriums. Echoes occur when sound reflects off obstacles at a distance of at least 17 meters from the source. Reverberation, or prolonged sound, is controlled through sound absorption materials and curved ceilings and surfaces to distribute sound evenly throughout the hall.

Room acoustics
Sound can propagate as longitudinal waves through air and solids, and as transverse waves through solids. The velocity of sound in air depends on temperature. Common units used to measure sound include decibels (loudness), hertz (frequency), and sone and phon (perceived loudness). Sound reflects off hard surfaces similarly to light, while diffraction causes bending around obstacles. The amount of sound absorbed versus reflected by a material is quantified by its absorption coefficient. Reverberation is the prolongation of sound after the source stops due to reflections, and reverberation time is used to characterize how long reflections are audible in a space.

Room and auditorium acoustics design
1. The acoustical quality of a room is determined by its reverberation time, which is the time it takes for sound to decay 60 decibels after the source stops.
2. Reverberation time depends on the volume of the room and absorption of surfaces. Larger rooms and rooms with more reflective surfaces have longer reverberation times, while smaller rooms and rooms with more absorptive surfaces have shorter reverberation times.
3. Ideal reverberation times for concert halls range from 1.7 to 2.05 seconds, though the frequency response is also important for acoustical quality.
Room and auditorium acoustics
This document discusses acoustics and reverberation time in rooms and auditoriums. It defines reverberation time as the time for sound to decay 60 dB from its original level. Ideal reverberation times are discussed for characteristics like liveness and intimacy. Formulas for calculating reverberation time are presented. Examples of reverberation times in famous concert halls like Vienna's Musikvereinsaal and Boston's Symphony Hall are provided to illustrate good ranges. Acoustical ceiling panels are mentioned as a way to produce balanced and blended sounds in performance venues.
The Recording Environment part 1
This document discusses sound waves and room acoustics. It explains that sound travels as longitudinal waves through air and other substances. When sound waves hit surfaces in an enclosed space, they are reflected and create reverberation over time. The time it takes for reverberation to decay by 60dB is known as the reverberation time or RT60, which provides an objective measurement of room acoustics. Room reflections are important for both the direct sound picked up by microphones and the diffuse room tone, which conveys information about the size and surfaces of the space.
Magazine Artical
The document discusses various concepts related to acoustics, including:
- Live rooms which bounce sound around in a pleasing way, such as auditoriums and bathrooms, versus dead rooms with high sound absorption like for recording vocals.
- Reverberation, which is the reflection of sound off surfaces that allows sounds to travel further and is used in theaters but can become "muddy" if excessive.
- Soundproofing, which reduces sound transmission between areas.
- Unwanted noise can be minimized through reducing electrical circuitry, editing out noise tails, and using windscreens for outdoor recording.

This topic comprises of noise, sound and noise control in relation with environmental control system intended for architecture students
19 to 25 march
The factors affecting acoustics in buildings include optimum reverberation time, loudness, focusing, echoes, the echelon effect, resonance, and noise. Optimum reverberation time can be achieved through sound absorbing materials, curtains, carpets, and decorations. Loudness is increased with quality speakers and low ceilings. Focusing is remedied by avoiding curved surfaces and using sound absorbers. Echoes are reduced with low ceilings and sound absorbers on walls and ceilings. The echelon effect comes from regular structures like railings and is remedied by avoiding them or adding carpets. Resonance is reduced by hanging curtains, and noise is controlled through sound absorbers, heavy

The document discusses various topics related to architectural acoustics including:
- The definition of architectural acoustics as the study of sound generation, propagation, and transmission in buildings.
- The importance of applying acoustic principles to improve quality of life through work and leisure environments.
- The need to both enhance desirable sounds like music, while reducing undesirable noise.
Sound fundamentals
This document provides an overview of fundamental concepts in acoustics and audio fundamentals. It discusses the physics of sound, how sound is processed by the ear and brain, concepts of loudness and pitch, principles of sound measurement including decibels and meters, properties of sound waves like reflection and absorption, and applications in architectural acoustics. Key topics covered include the anatomy of the ear, function of the cochlea, psychoacoustics, principles of sound pressure, intensity and power levels, characteristics of VU and peak meters, and the inverse square law governing sound wave propagation.
Physics sound
The document discusses reflection of sound and how various devices use reflection of sound waves. It defines reflection of sound as sound bouncing back when it strikes a hard surface. It describes how a megaphone amplifies and directs sound by reflecting it, a stethoscope is used by doctors to listen to body sounds by reflecting them, and a soundboard in a large hall reflects sound to aid listening. Echoes occur when a sound reflects off a surface and the original sound and reflection can be heard separately if there is a time interval of at least one tenth of a second between them.
Auditorium ACOUSTICS
The document discusses the acoustical design considerations for an auditorium. It outlines key factors such as maintaining a low ambient noise level, providing appropriate reverberation time without echoes, and how the shape, dimensions, and seating arrangements of an auditorium impact hearing conditions. Different types of materials are also described that can be used to absorb or diffuse sound such as acoustical panels, diffusers, and noise barriers to improve the auditorium's acoustics. Proper loudspeaker systems and ceiling/wall designs can further enhance the sound quality within the auditorium space.
Physics forum
This document discusses the reflection of sound and its applications. It begins by stating that sound reflects according to the same laws as light, with the incident, normal, and reflected rays lying in the same plane and the angles of incidence and reflection being equal. It then gives examples of applications including echoes, reverberation, use in stethoscopes, whispering galleries, sonar, and echolocation by bats.
Indoor and outdoor acoustics
1. Sound is the result of shifting air pressure over time and travels in the form of longitudinal waves through air. Acoustics is the science of sound and how it affects our lives through communication, music, and other applications.
2. A recording studio consists of a live room for performances, isolation booths for loud instruments, and a control room for equipment. Additional rooms include dead rooms which have little reverberation for clear vocal recordings.
3. Studio design aims to control sound through soundproofing techniques. Walls have patterns to absorb sound and prevent leakage. Reverberation and unwanted noise are also issues that studio design and equipment aim to mitigate for high quality recordings.
Haas effect, Optimum reverberation time, Anechoic chamber
The Haas effect describes how the human auditory system is unable to distinguish between sounds arriving from separate sources if the time delay between the sounds is less than 30-40 milliseconds. Audio engineers make use of this effect by adding delayed signals to additional speakers to ensure the sound appears to originate from the stage rather than individual speakers, allowing sufficient volume throughout a venue. Optimum reverberation time depends on the volume and intended use of a space - shorter times around 0.5 seconds are best for speech while music benefits from 1-2 seconds. Anechoic chambers aim to absorb all sound reflections to study sources in free field conditions, maintaining very low noise levels of 10-20 dBA. Semi-anechoic chambers

The Evolution and Impact of OTT Platforms: A Deep Dive into the Future of Ent...
This presentation provides a thorough examination of Over-the-Top (OTT) platforms, focusing on their development and substantial influence on the entertainment industry, with a particular emphasis on the Indian market.We begin with an introduction to OTT platforms, defining them as streaming services that deliver content directly over the internet, bypassing traditional broadcast channels. These platforms offer a variety of content, including movies, TV shows, and original productions, allowing users to access content on-demand across multiple devices.The historical context covers the early days of streaming, starting with Netflix's inception in 1997 as a DVD rental service and its transition to streaming in 2007. The presentation also highlights India's television journey, from the launch of Doordarshan in 1959 to the introduction of Direct-to-Home (DTH) satellite television in 2000, which expanded viewing choices and set the stage for the rise of OTT platforms like Big Flix, Ditto TV, Sony LIV, Hotstar, and Netflix. The business models of OTT platforms are explored in detail. Subscription Video on Demand (SVOD) models, exemplified by Netflix and Amazon Prime Video, offer unlimited content access for a monthly fee. Transactional Video on Demand (TVOD) models, like iTunes and Sky Box Office, allow users to pay for individual pieces of content. Advertising-Based Video on Demand (AVOD) models, such as YouTube and Facebook Watch, provide free content supported by advertisements. Hybrid models combine elements of SVOD and AVOD, offering flexibility to cater to diverse audience preferences.
Content acquisition strategies are also discussed, highlighting the dual approach of purchasing broadcasting rights for existing films and TV shows and investing in original content production. This section underscores the importance of a robust content library in attracting and retaining subscribers.The presentation addresses the challenges faced by OTT platforms, including the unpredictability of content acquisition and audience preferences. It emphasizes the difficulty of balancing content investment with returns in a competitive market, the high costs associated with marketing, and the need for continuous innovation and adaptation to stay relevant.
The impact of OTT platforms on the Bollywood film industry is significant. The competition for viewers has led to a decrease in cinema ticket sales, affecting the revenue of Bollywood films that traditionally rely on theatrical releases. Additionally, OTT platforms now pay less for film rights due to the uncertain success of films in cinemas.
Looking ahead, the future of OTT in India appears promising. The market is expected to grow by 20% annually, reaching a value of ₹1200 billion by the end of the decade. The increasing availability of affordable smartphones and internet access will drive this growth, making OTT platforms a primary source of entertainment for many viewers.

Acoustic wall panels.pptx
- 2. Acoustic wall panels As some of the sound is absorbed at every reflection on the home theatre’s acoustic wall panels, it dies away ultimately. The time that it takes for the sound to die away is known as the echo time and is dependent on both the size of the home theatre room, and the amount of sound absorbed at every reflection.
- 3. Sound panels When the tone in the home theatre stops, the echo sound level won’t lessen instantly but will rather decay at a rate decided by the amount of sound energy that is absorbed at every reflection with the sound panels and other surfaces.
- 4. Anechoic chamber This implies that the steady state level will be higher in an anechoic chamber that has a small amount of acoustic panels, in respect to home theatre rooms that have a lot of absorptive treatments.
