NLR offers a solution to demonstrate the impact of noise reduction measures in an objective way. Our capabilities allow you to visualise and demonstrate the reduction of noise from various sources such as aircraft, wind turbines, road traffic, trains, or industry. We can also recreate a community in a realistic virtual reality environment, enabling you to examine the impact of noise reduction measures from both the source and through shielding or other measures. This allows for a comprehensive understanding of the effectiveness of noise reduction strategies.
NLR can support you with:
- The NLR-Virtual Community Noise Simulator (VCNS), a unique facility that combines expertise on noise sources, atmospheric propagation, reflections, and absorption to simulate future noise impact.
- A fully-immersive 360-degree virtual reality simulator with 3D positional audio for an realistic experience.
- On-location demonstrations of noise impact solutions for groups ranging from 1 to 600 people.
- Expertise in translating and validating noise impact to specific locations and environments from where it is observed.
- Validated and calibrated sound levels presented using a dummy head to ensure accurate representation of noise impact.
