Giant Volume Meter Helps to Measure the Noise
Posted March 5th, 2008 by Mihnea Boiangiu
The “Volumen”, a giant graphic equalizer has been built by Sergio Avello and measures the noise in front of Redgaleria in Buenos Aires. The great idea seems very promising as it is a nice way of illustrating the noisy streets big cities. The Volume Meter features colored LEDs that show the higher levels of noise from green to red like an equalizer.
Perhaps this volume meter is not so practical, but it could increase citizens awareness about the constant buzz from the city, in this way creating a calm environment.
