Find the motion behind sound and noise

Ommatidia Laser RADAR measures geometry and vibration across many points in parallel. Investigate the surfaces behind sound, noise and resonance without loading the object with sensors.

For musical instruments, aeroacoustics, building acoustics, automotive NVH and vibration research.

Acoustic questions begin with structural motion

A resonant guitar body, a vibrating panel, a flow-excited test article and a building floor all create sound through motion. Ommatidia combines geometry with multi-point vibration information to show where that motion is happening.

Keep the object in its natural state

Study delicate instruments, lightweight structures, living tissue or moving components without adding mass, wiring or physical contact.

Relate sound to structural response

Map the vibration patterns behind audible noise, resonances and radiated sound rather than inferring them from a handful of points.

Work in realistic test conditions

Measure at a distance when access, temperature, motion, surface sensitivity or test time make traditional sensors a poor fit.

From acoustic signature to structural answer

Laser RADAR brings laser Doppler vibrometry and geometry measurement into one platform. Measure many points in parallel to see how a structure moves, where it moves and which response deserves attention.

Use the spatial view to test a hypothesis, refine a model and make the next engineering decision with more confidence.

Frequently asked questions

Short answers for teams planning sound, acoustics, vibration or modal-research experiments.

Can Laser RADAR help investigate sound and musical instruments?

Yes. Non-contact vibrometry can show how structures, plates, membranes and instrument bodies respond, helping connect an audible result with physical motion.

What does full-field vibrometry add to acoustic research?

It reveals spatial vibration patterns and localized response, helping researchers see where sound-producing or noise-producing behaviour originates.

Is it suitable for aeroacoustics and flow-induced vibration?

It can be useful when a stand-off view of structural response is needed around moving air, rotating machinery or difficult-to-instrument test articles.

Can it be used for tremor or biomechanical vibration research?

It provides a non-contact route for research measurements where adding a sensor could influence the motion being observed. Measurement design should match the study protocol and applicable ethics requirements.
