The Bionic XS-56 microphone array has a diameter of 27 cm and consists of 56 microphones. The optimized microphone distribution guarantees a perfect sound source localization and a high dynamic range. The seven detachable microphone arms (setup about 1 minute) make the system very mobile with a small package size. The data acquisition hardware is integrated in the acoustic camera so there is no need to use external measuring equipement. Using the handle on the acoustic camera makes the system perfect for mobile use. Typical applications are environmental measurement, leakage detection and squeak, buzz and rattle localization.
