Adaptive vehicle horn

A system that includes a vehicle horn can reduce noise pollution caused by vehicles. The system can include a vehicle horn that has a signal-based mode and a sound-based mode. In the signal-based mode, the vehicle horn can output an electronic signal. In the sound-based mode, the vehicle horn can output an audible signal. The system can select one of the signal-based mode and the sound-based mode for the vehicle horn based on the driving environment data acquired by one or more sensors. Upon receiving a horn command, the system can cause the vehicle horn to output a signal based on the selected mode.

VARIABLE THICKNESS DIAPHRAGM FOR A WIDEBAND ROBUST PIEZOELECTRIC MICROMACHINED ULTRASONIC TRANSDUCER (PMUT)

A diaphragm for a piezoelectric micromachined ultrasonic transducer (PMUT) is presented having resonance frequency and bandwidth characteristics which are decoupled from one another into independent variables. Portions of at least the piezoelectric material layer and backside electrode layer are removed in a selected pattern to form structures, such as ribs, in the diaphragm which retains stiffness while reducing overall mass. The patterned structure can be formed by additive, or subtractive, fabrication processes.
