When it comes to acoustic performance, consumers hold electronic products to a high standard. Consumers expect these electronics to provide an optimal user experience and run quietly, with many considering quiet products as higher quality. Conversely, it’s not only about noise suppression. Optimizing the acoustic performance of loudspeakers and microphones is key to the perceived quality of audio products. Producing powerful, high-quality consumer goods requires advanced noise engineering and sound characterization.
Watch the webinar to understand how a combined simulation and test approach in the early design stages delivers critical acoustic performance insights and enables innovation in less time and at a lower cost.
Designers of consumer electronics can also quickly evaluate multiple scenarios without expensive prototypes or delaying production. With a combination of simulation and test in early design, design teams unlock the ability to deliver critical acoustic performance insights to ensure the best product can be made at a competitive price.
Consumer electronics companies face challenges with increased complexity, new technology adoption and quick responses to emerging market trends. Miniaturization, high power density, increased cooling needs and lower cost goals add to the existing pressure to bring products to market faster. Developing leading and performant electronic products requires an innovative and adaptive engineering approach. Companies using acoustic testing in the early development stages can benchmark competitive products, pre-select components, and deliver data for use in simulation models.
