Smartvox-II is a vertical loudspeaker array that uses a linear spaced speaker
arrangement in combination with passive phase shifting, passive power shading and filtering, to obtain a constant directivity index for multiple frequencies (Conceptis based on the Messenger linear spaced line-arrays with patent algorithm). The fixed Azimuth angle of -10 degrees, allows for the unit to be placed vertical againstany surface, resulting in more clarity, lower reverberant field and therefor a muchhigher ‘direct-to-reverb’ ratio, leading to a higher intelligibility figure (STI).

SMARTVOX II

 

 

By ”aiming” the beam of a loudspeaker electronically using phase-shifting, power-shading and filtering technique for constant directivity, you can keep the column placed vertical against its surface (figure 2) avoiding any additional energy to the reverberant field, resulting in more clarity and a much better intelligibility.

The Smartvox distinguishes itself through its precise sound direction pattern in the vertical plane, independent of the frequency. Due to constant sound pressure over long distances fewer loudspeakers are necessary, through which less indirect sound is produced (see figure next page).
