The rooms in a school are filled with life - and that can get loud.
The stress that this causes for teachers and pupils is caused solely by the room and not by the pupils - and this can usually be changed quite easily.
Our Acoustic Optimizer minimises noise that is reflected from the corners of the room. The effect: significantly quieter rooms with clear acoustics, optimised speech intelligibility and a significant reduction in stress.
Advantages of the Acoustic Optimizer EWA:
- Highly effective: Prevents the generation of distorted noise.
- No overdamping: Speech intelligibility is significantly improved.
- Space-saving: No loss of room height, walls remain free.
- Cost-effective: No change to the lighting.
- Sustainable: Quickly installed - just as quickly removed (e.g. for rental properties).
- Safe: The absorbent core is non-flammable (A1), the cover fabric is flame-retardant (B1).
Speech intelligibility and learning success
Our brain is very good at separating relevant sounds such as speech from unimportant background noise. However, this requires an enormous amount of computing power from the brain. The more power is required for this filtering, the less is available for understanding the content. In rooms with poor acoustics, half of the brain's processing power is quickly lost to filtering out background noise.
Conversely, the better the speech intelligibility, the more capacity is available for comprehension and the greater the learning success - or the result in discussions.
At the same time, the stress for the presenters is reduced.
Optimise speech intelligibility.
Our solution is based on the latest research and findings from recording studios. The cause of stress-inducing noise is not the source of the noise, but what the room makes of it. This is because right angles throw the sound pressure back into the room distorted and amplified by up to 20 dB.
The Acoustic Optimizer does not simply attenuate the entire noise level of the room (as conventional surface absorbers do), but prevents the emergence of what is perceived as noise from the edges and corners of the room.
The use of the Acoustic Optimizer EWA creates quiet rooms with clean, clear acoustics, optimised speech intelligibility and a significant reduction in stress.
This is how it works:
The Acoustic Optimizer EWA eliminates the sound pressure phenomena (up to 20 dB additional noise) coming from the corners of the rooms. This is the real cause of the stress that rooms generate.
At the same time, the distorted overlays hinder the clear understanding of speech - which leads to even more stress.
The simple solution: the Acoustic Optimizer absorbs this sound or noise.
The installation time is usually only 1 - 2 hours per room. This does not restrict the operation of the facility. You can easily carry out the installation yourself. All installation materials including instructions are included in the scope of delivery.
De-noise your rooms with the help of the acoustic system and take the pressure off your employees. At the same time, you can help your students to concentrate, as filtering out background noise requires enormous "computing power" from the brain, which leads to premature switching off and therefore inattention.
