The global Planar Wheel Microphone Array Market was valued at 340 million in 2023 and is projected to reach US$ 454 million by 2030, at a CAGR of 4.3% during the forecast period.
Planar Wheel Microphone Array Market Overview
A planar wheel microphone array is an array in which all microphones are located in the same plane and arranged in a wheel-shaped or wheel-like geometric shape. This array structure enables it to capture sound signals from multiple different points at the same time and perform spatial audio filtering to generate the direction of the sound wave. The planar wheel microphone array uses beamforming technology to measure the sound pressure signal and obtains the acoustic imaging of the surface of the object being measured by post-processing these signals. The location and characteristics of the sound source can be determined by matching optical photographs and other methods. This technology has the advantages of fast measurement speed and easy layout, and is suitable for medium and long distance measurements.
