Bose Seminar - Thur Mar 20

Bose Corp Seminar

Thursday, March 20 at 12:00 Noon
214 Applied Science Building

Refreshments served

Description:

Neal Lackritz of Bose Corp will provide a talk about an ongoing research effort at Bose code named "Project Sound".  Despite the name, Project Sound is not directly related to sound or audio systems, but does involve many aspects of acoustics, vibration, signal processing and control system theory that should be of interest to students and faculty in Acoustics and related engineering disciplines. The project is also an example of the kind of high risk research effort that can be sustained over an extended period of time by a privately held, research-oriented company like Bose.
