INTRODUCTION
• Audio spot lighting is a very recent technology that creates a focussed beams of sound similar to light beams coming out of a flash light.
• Specific listeners can be targeted with sound without others nearby hearing it.
• It makes use of non-linearity property of air.

HOW IS THE SOUND FOCUSED INTO A NARROW BEAM???
• Maintain a low beam angle that is dictated by wavelength.• The smaller the wavelength,the less the beam angle, the more focussed will be the sound.• The audio spot light uses ultrasonic energy to create
extremely narrow beams of sound .
FOCUSED BEAM OF SOUND

• The ultrasound column acts as a airborne speaker,and as the beam moves through the air gradual distortion takes place in a predictable way.this gives rise to audible components that can be accurately predicted and controlled…..

WORKING
• Ultra sonic frequencies :21 khz to 28 khz• Wavelength :few millimeters• Beam angle :3 degree
Narrow beam with small dispersion……

TRANSDUCER: Thesetransducers are arranged in form of an array called parametric array in order topropagate the ultrasonic signals from the emitter and thereby to exploit the nonlinearityproperty of air.

ADVANTAGES•Can focus sound only at the place you want.•Ultrasonic emitter devices are thin and flat .•The directed sound travels much faster .•Dispersion can be controlled.•Highly cost effective and longer life span.•Requires same power as required for regular speakers.•There is no lag in reproducing the sound…..

CONCLUSION
Even the best loudspeakers are subject to distortion and their omni direction sound is annoying to the people in the vicinity who do not wish to.the audio spotlight will force people to rethink their relationship with sound.audio spotlighting really
“PUT SOUND WHERE YOU WANT IT”
