Incubator-based Active Noise Control (ANC) System

The Incubator-based Active Noise Control (ANC) System reduces noise levels in infant incubators using sensors, speakers, and an adaptive algorithm.

  1. General Details

    This system incorporates an active noise control (ANC) device within the structure of the infant incubator. The ANC system is designed to generate sound waves matching the frequency and amplitude of the targeted noises for attenuation. Through calculations executed within microseconds, the system determines the optimal sound wave required at any given moment to minimize the sound pressure level across a wide area. Furthermore, the system facilitates the transmission of a parent’s or caregiver’s voice into the incubator, enabling crucial directed communication with the infant without interference from the incubator walls.
