SpectAcoular! An Extension for Acoular
* Presenting author
Abstract:
Acoular is an open source software package written in Python programming language for processing and analysis of microphone array data. With its object-oriented design, it allows to build complex script-based processing pipelines. SpectAcoular is built on top of Acoular and offers additional modules to further simplify the handling of Acoular. It implements interactive controls (widgets) forbuilding individual graphical user interfaces with the visualization library Bokeh. Bokeh uses web browsers for visualization, whereby rendering and event handling is performed by a high-level JavaScript library. This allows to create real-time applications and to use the capabilities of Acoular independently from the operating system. In addition, building client-server applications is supported, which makes it possible to interactively control microphone array data processing in a distributed scenario.
