Noise cost *. Excessive noise can cause annoyance or loss of concentration, and productivity may fall. Deviation from noise standards may also corrupt products or data obtained. So, many approaches have been made towards noise-free environment. However, the noise theory is more delicate than most people think, and as a result, lack of noise theory may cause in expensive pursuits or even incorrigible hazards.
A recent review of various national and international standards States that many specialist areas require that the environment and equipment meet certain noise standards. These must be examined and engineered skilfully before these environments are declared safe and prolific to everyone. The preference therefore is for a quieter vicinity. In the product line, this is often reflected by the selling advantage of the quiet product has over its noisy competitor.
This is where ISTIQ comes in. Even before the incorporation of ISTIQ, we have been in the 'noisy environment' where the battles have involved business, managerial and technical aspects of sound. Every project is engineered with great care and technical backup. No doubt that the task of diagnosing and correcting noise problems in the past, has received little attention in a formal way. However, with integration of modern measurement techniques such as Spatial Transformation of Sound Fields and Sound Intensity, application of acoustic or noise control have been made possible.
In any way, the progress development in Acoustic in general throughout the world has been at slow pace. It is our keen interest to develop and be wilful partner of R&D in noise and thus, support the local as well as industry abroad.
