Contributed to acoustic design integrating microphones and loudspeakers into portable and mobile (in-vehicle) 2-way radios. Helped assess customer-perceived value of next generation audio features through prototyping. Performed large amounts of audio / acoustics experimentation.• Assembled a test fixture to produce high SPL levels inside a Thermotron with an anechoic-like interior in order to run tests at extreme temperatures.• Conducted a test comparing wind noise performance of a… Show more Contributed to acoustic design integrating microphones and loudspeakers into portable and mobile (in-vehicle) 2-way radios.
