Anechoic room
The institute’s anechoic room is one of the latest nationwide. Because of its dimensions, equipment and frequency range precise acoustical measurements and listening tests can be taken.

• raw building dimensions: 12 meters length, 7,5 meters width, 9,5 meters height
• accuracy class 1 (according to DIN EN ISO 3745)
• lower threshold 63 Hz, upper threshold 20 kHz
• turning device for the measurement of the balloon data of loudspeakers

3-D Presentation Room
The special lab serves the development of three dimensional audio visual systems.

• cross bar system with 80 flexible suspensions for loudspeakers
• visual tracking system
• room acoustics follows the standard for listening rooms (ITU-R BS.1116.)

IOSONO^® Demonstration Room
The permanently installed IOSONO sound system enables the further development of Wave Field Synthesis based spatial audio rendering technologies.

• room acoustics follows the standard for listening rooms (ITU-R BS.1116)
• IOSONO^® sound system with 88 high- and mid-range loudspeakers and four subwoofers
  

Measuring Lab
The state-of-the-art laboratory is used for objective electric and acoustical measurements of audio hardware and for the evaluation of quality under standardized conditions.

• room acoustics follows the standard for listening rooms (ITU-R BS.1116)
