Acoustic Imaging

Acoustic Imaging is probably the most advanced field within the whole of acoustics and finding the right products can be a bit of a minefield. At AcSoft we have the expertise to make sure you have the very best product for your application.

An acoustic camera is an imaging device that is used to both locate sound sources and to characterise them. It generally consists of a microphone array and an optical camera whose data is simultaneously acquired to give a representation of the location of the sound sources. The most popular method to obtain an acoustic image is to use beamforming whereby microphone signals are delayed relatively and added, with the signal coming from a specific direction being amplified while signals coming from other directions are cancelled.

Alternatively, particle velocity techniques can be used for localising sound sources on any type of object; from small hearing aids to large gas turbines. This technique provides you with high spatial resolution sound maps, over a broad frequency range and with an incredible dynamic range.

  • Visualise sound in real-time to detect and resolve noise and vibration issues with precision
  • Wide range of user-friendly acoustic cameras backed by expert support and guidance
  • Used across aerospace, automotive and manufacturing to reduce downtime and improve performance

Acoustic Imaging Equipment

Acoustic imaging has changed the way industries identify noise and vibration problems. By turning sound waves into visual data, this technology allows you to find problems with precision, improve designs and optimise operations. AcSoft is proud to offer a range of acoustic imaging solutions for various industries across the UK.

What is Acoustic Imaging?

Acoustic imaging is a technology that turns sound into visual representations so you can quickly identify noise and vibration sources. Unlike traditional methods, it gives you real-time data so you can analyse problems quickly. This technology is used in industries such as aerospace, automotive and manufacturing.

Our Acoustic Imaging Equipment

Here at AcSoft we have a range of acoustic imaging cameras each designed for specific applications. The Crysound Acoustic Camera is ideal for identifying gas leaks and mechanical deterioration. It is known for its ease to use and how quickly you can generate a report with very little training needed. Another well know manufacturer of acoustic imagin equipment is gfai tech, who are known for inventing the acoustic camera along with advanced analysis software.

Each of these devices will help you get reliable results, reduce downtime and improve operations. Whether you have a specific noise problem or want to improve processes, AcSoft has the tools for you.

Benefits of Acoustic Imaging

Acoustic imaging has many advantages. Real-time visualisation makes it easier to detect noise sources, helping to save you valuable time and money. The precision of these systems means you can detect and fix subtle issues before they become major problems. downtime.

Industries We Serve

Our acoustic imaging cameras are used by professionals in many industries, including aerospace, automotive and manufacturing. Whatever your industry we at AcSoft have solutions for your problem.

How to Choose the Best Acoustic Camera

Selecting the right acoustic camera depends on your application, environment, and budget. Acoustic cameras are powerful tools for visualising sound sources, helping you identify problems quickly in industries such as manufacturing, construction, automotive, and environmental monitoring.

When choosing, first consider the frequency range you need to capture. Low-frequency performance is essential for locating machinery vibration or structural noise, while higher frequencies are useful for leak detection or identifying small sound sources. The number of microphones in the array also matters – more microphones generally mean greater accuracy and resolution.

Portability can be another key factor. Hand-held or lightweight systems are ideal for fieldwork, whereas large arrays suit long-term projects. Just as important is the software and support behind the system. Intuitive software makes it easier to analyse, report and share results, while strong after-sales service ensures you receive training, calibration and updates to get the best from your investment.

At AcSoft, we supply advanced acoustic imaging solutions to meet a wide range of requirements. Speak to our experts today and we’ll help you select the best acoustic camera for your needs.
