To solve noise problem

I am uncomfortable in my condominium because I can't find the source of the noise. How can we identify it? And how much will it cost?

We normally receive phone or e-mail inquiries. Although these sound in a room, which are difficult to identify, the generated source of these sound are 'squeak & rattle' or 'mysterious sound'. We cannot do anything without finding out the generated source of the noise. Therefore we can investigate and analyze the source of the noise by using 'Noise Vision' our omni-directional sound source analyzing system. Even if we can identify the source of the noise using this system, we may not be able to create a countermeasure immediately, but the measurement result will be the clue to creating a countermeasures.

Measuring squeaks, rattles and mysterious sound

'Noise Vision', an omni-directional sound source analyzing system is used for sound source detection investigation to identify the source of the noise. Noise Vision has 31 microphones and 12 CCD cameras, and it can clearly display the direction of noise source in a photo. You don't have to worry, the noise will arise instantaneously because of the trigger function.
It wouldn't take much time to setup the equipment. After taking out the measurement equipment out of the case, it only takes 10 minutes to completely setup and begin the measurement. After a few minutes of the transmission of the relevant noise, it would be possible to check the direction of the generated noise and display the results of the analysis. To know what the generated direction is, it is important to identify the source of the noise which will help to create a specific countermeasure for the noise.
The expense of this measurement changes by the place of measurement, the number of measurement points and measurable times. For example, if the measurement is held in 23 wards of Tokyo and lasts for a few hours, the estimated cost including the report making would be around ¥300,000.
