A bone conduction speaker includes a housing, a vibration board and a transducer. The transducer is located in the housing, and the vibration board is configured to contact with skin and pass vibration. At least one sound guiding hole is set on at least one portion of the housing to guide sound wave inside the housing to the outside of the housing. The guided sound wave interfaces with the leaked sound wave, and the interfacing reduces a sound pressure level of at least a portion of the leaked sound wave. A frequency of the at least a portion of the leaked sound wave is lower than 4000 Hz.

An active acoustics management system for the loudspeaker back-enclosure, including a first loudspeaker having a front side and a back side connected by side walls, the front facing in a first direction, is presented. An enclosure surrounds a portion of the first loudspeaker, such that the enclosure is open about the front side of the first loudspeaker and is closed about the side walls and the back side of the loudspeaker. A second loudspeaker is disposed within the enclosure behind the first loudspeaker, the second loudspeaker being oriented to output waveforms in the first direction, wherein the second loudspeaker is adapted to output waveforms in the first direction thereby to cancel at least some waveforms emanating from the back side of the first loudspeaker, using active control strategies.

An apparatus on a vehicle comprises one or more sensors, one or more nozzles that output fluid to clean the respective one or more sensors, and a compressor that generates fluid such as compressed air. The compressor is in fluid communication with the one or more nozzles. The apparatus further comprises one or more processors, and a memory storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the system to determine information of an acoustic emission from the compressor and to counteract the acoustic emission based on the determined information.

A device (1) for reducing a rolling noise of a vehicle (3) having at least one tire (2), the tire (2) rolling on a roadway on a tire contact patch (4), wherein the device (1) comprises at least one sound absorption element (5) attached to the vehicle (3) in front of, behind and/or laterally of the tire contact patch (4) in the direction of travel (F) of the vehicle (3) and having at least one resonance frequency and a curved first absorber membrane (6) facing the tire contact patch (4), wherein essentially the entire first absorber membrane (6) is oriented normally to a direction of sound propagation (S) emanating from the tire contact patch (4), and the sound absorption element (5) is located at a distance from the tire contact patch (4) which corresponds to a multiple of half a wavelength (λ) assigned to the resonance frequency.

A speaker comprises a housing, a transducer residing inside the housing, and at least one sound guiding hole located on the housing. The transducer generates vibrations. The vibrations produce a sound wave inside the housing and cause a leaked sound wave spreading outside the housing from a portion of the housing. The at least one sound guiding hole guides the sound wave inside the housing through the at least one sound guiding hole to an outside of the housing. The guided sound wave interferes with the leaked sound wave in a target region. The interference at a specific frequency relates to a distance between the at least one sound guiding hole and the portion of the housing.
