Overview
Trident Multi-Channel Acoustic Analyzer
VIacoustics Trident software is a real-time multi-channel, multiple analysis, acoustic measurement application for use in:
- Product noise emission measurements (sound pressure and sound power)
- Building acoustics measurements (sound transmission and sound absorption)
- Hearing sciences measurement applications (background noise, sound field calibration)
The Trident software application can be used in most any acoustic environment. Applications include:
- Laboratory measurements in anechoic and reverberation chambers
- Accredited laboratory environments
- In-situ and field acoustic measurements
- End of line product test measurements
Trident operates on National Instruments data acquisition hardware devices such as:
These devices provide a wide range on input voltage capabilities, sampling rates, interface types and price points for creating everything from low cost sound level measurement systems to high end laboratory test systems.
Multi-channel real time acoustic analyzer software for national instruments digital signal acquisition devices. Measure sound pressure, sound power levels, FFT analysis, ISO 532B* Loudness analysis, calibrated time waveform recording module.
Learn more about Trident and it’s analysis capabilities on the Features Tab.
