Quiet Zones: AI and Sound Sensors for Noise-Free Workspaces

Background

This project allows students to delve into artificial intelligence (AI), sound sensor technology, and data analytics by addressing the real-world challenge of noise management in workplaces. The objective is to develop an AI system that monitors real-time noise levels, identifies patterns of disruption, and suggests practical changes (such as layout adjustments or soundproofing solutions) to improve workplace wellness and productivity.

Learning Outcome (LO)

  • LO #1: Basics of AI in Environmental Monitoring 
    Acquire foundational knowledge on the role of AI in monitoring environmental conditions, with a specific focus on noise management within indoor workspaces.
