An acoustic camera refers to a device used for detecting, identifying, locating and categorizing mid-to high-frequency sources of sound. It collects the signals using multiple microphones and simultaneously processes them to represent the accurate location of the source. The signals are processed are further recorded for analysis to demonstrate the phase of the sound wave. The camera also provides noise maps for qualitative analysis. Acoustic cameras are commonly used for combating noise pollution in crowded areas, mapping rocks and identifying faults in machinery and mechanical components. They are also used to reduce noise emission from automobiles, airplanes, trains, wind turbines and manufacturing and power generation plants.

Acoustic Camera Market Trends:

Increasing automation of various industrial processes is one of the key factors driving the growth of the market. Acoustic cameras are extensively utilized to identify and locate sound frequencies to locate defects in materials and prevent leakage and equipment or infrastructure failure. Moreover, significant growth in the automotive industry across the globe is creating a positive outlook for the market. Acoustic cameras are used in vehicles during the design and prototyping phases for eliminating transient, intermittent and ill-defined noise sources that generate buzz, squeak and rattle (BSR) sounds. In line with this, the widespread adoption of acoustic cameras in advanced non-destructive testing (NDT) equipment is also contributing to the market growth. Various technological advancements, such as the development of combined audio and video acoustic cameras, are acting as other growth-inducing factors. These novel variants are used for controlling traffic and recording videos of vehicles breaching the permitted noise limits. Other factors, including rising consciousness among the masses regarding noise pollution, along with the implementation of favorable government policies, are anticipated to drive the market toward growth.
