  • Apparatus and method for measuring noise
    Patent number: 10101242
    Abstract: An apparatus for measuring noise includes: a signal generator configured to input an input signal having an excitation frequency to an audio device; and a controller configured to measure rattle noise from a sound pressure signal generated in response to the input signal. The controller measures the rattle noise by comparing a frequency component of the sound pressure signal with a masking curve corresponding to the excitation frequency.

  • Apparatus for measuring and displaying a factor, method for measuring and displaying a factor, a program for measuring and displaying a factor being configured to cause a computer to run a method for measuring and displaying a factor, and sound scanner
    Patent number: 8269832
    Abstract: A method for measuring and displaying a factor includes: sensing a factor by using a sensing unit, which is movable in a plane, a curved surface, or a space where the factor for sensing is generated or contained and senses the factor; photographing the plane, the curved surface, or the space; simultaneously recognizing a position of the sensing unit by targeting the sound sensing unit when sensing the factor in the step of sensing; generating a factor map data by mapping the factor sensed in the step of sensing onto the position sensed in the step of recognizing; overlaying the factor map data with the picture data; and displaying the factor map data overlaid with the picture data.
