A web hosted system and method involving a client-server architecture permits
audio
designers to perform acoustic prediction calculations from a thin client computer.
A client computer or other Internet connect device having a display screen is used
by an audio professional to access via the Internet a host computer which performs
acoustic prediction calculations and returns results of the calculations to the
client. The results of the calculations are returned in the form of data visualizations,
such as an area view showing visualizations of sound pressure levels within a defined
space, an impulse view showing the time domain response at a defined location,
and/or a frequency domain view showing the frequency response at a defined location.
Calculations are performed based on user-defined inputs, such as speaker type and
location, sent to the host computer from the client computer and based on retrieval
of loudspeaker data from one or more databases accessible by the host computer.
