Abstract

Technologies are generally described for automatically managing noise profile in a predefined area by determining a desired noise profile within the predefined area, monitoring noise levels and/or frequencies within the predefined area, and adjusting operational aspects of one or more noise emitting devices in order to achieve the desired noise profile within the predefined area. A noise management system according to embodiments may be centrally controlled or organized in a distributed manner with control modules on individual noise emitting devices interacting through wired or wireless media. Furthermore, the adjustment of the operations of the noise emitting devices in order to achieve the desired noise profile may be accomplished through computing an acoustic transfer function or measuring actual noise levels/frequencies.

Description

Background technique [0001] Unless otherwise indicated herein, the material described in this section is not prior art to the claims of this application, and should not be admitted as prior art by being included in this section. [0002] The use of noise emitting devices (for example, electrical appliances, computers, entertainment systems, and similar devices) is a common experience for users in their home and office environments. When multiple electrical appliances or devices are used at the same time, the sound emitted during operation can be additive and can cause the total noise level in the area to be extremely annoying or destructive. In addition to the level of noise, the frequency of noise also has an interference effect on people. For example, treble will affect some people more than others, and some buzzing noise will disturb other people. [0003] The effect of noise level and / or frequency also depends on the current state of the person. For example, people who operat...
