Hearing things
Article Abstract:
New technology has enabled sound systems to be developed so that alarms and music or public address systems can be used at the same time, being heard by those in any part of a building as required, which is particularly useful for leisure centres. Loudspeaker systems have been developed for various sectors, such as underwater systems for swimming pools. The turning point was when electronics allowed the equipment and cables to be monitored by a high frequency tone which could not be heard by humans.
