In its campus of Terrassa, the Polytechnic University of Catalonia (Upc) has installed the first Catalan automated acoustic laboratory that recreates three dimensional audio systems. This technology, introduced by the company Master Audio in Terrassa, reproduced in a ready room sound, through an automated system and a computerized equipment, whose data then extrapolates to any field. Thus, a loudspeaker emits a sound, thousandths of a second, which captures a microphone located at various distances on the speaker that receives the sound. Physical rules are then used to transfer the sample to a specific room. According to a spokesman for the company Master Audio r & d: "the system allows to reduce the time of introduction in the market". Also, the representative of the Master Audio company points out that this device allows you to obtain improved and reliable results prior to their implementation in any location. The new facility, unique in Catalonia, has won the award for the 'impetus to innovation' of the Chamber of Commerce and industry of Terrassa.
