Noise pollution has been one of the main causes of citizens' discomfort in the urban centres in Brazil, an issue enhanced by the Covid pandemic that resulted in an increase of noise complaints, especially those related to noise from construction sites. This context triggered the construction industry to pursue solutions to understand the acoustic r...

With the growing concern about noise pollution and its effects on health and well-being, the development of effective urban sound planning is becoming highly necessary. However, the soundscape of the urban settlements is a complex composition of different sound sources and should be faced with a multidisciplinary approach. The urban sound planning...

Long-term noise monitoring is a powerful and useful approach for assessing the acoustic impact of a construction site on the neighbourhood. Its application may also help on evaluating the indoor noise of places such as schools, hospitals, and offices. In most cases, the site under inspection is located in cities, which is inherently prone to intrus...

Considering Impact sound level requirements accomplishment in Brazil, floating floors are still considered as an inviable solution for building companies due to the implications in the total cost of building, mainly for social housing. Alternative and sometimes cheaper solutions are those undertaken in the receiver room. However, the lack of labora...

A síntese de voz a partir de texto tem se tornado cada dia mais presente na vida cotidiana. De forma simplificada, pode-se dizer que o software é capaz de “ler textos”, convertendo informações textuais em sonoras. Este trabalho tem como objetivo construir, apresentar pormenores e oferecer facilidades para o uso de um software (com bibliotecas livre...

Raspberry Pi is a small and powerful Single Board Computer (SBC). It can be used as much for its didactic capabilities in engineering courses as for its capacity to automate everyday tasks. Its main advantages are the cost-benefit, its ease of use, and its ability to integrate with various devices and systems. Such integration may be via USB (using...

Raspberry Pi (Rpi) is a complete microcomputer integrated onto a single board (SBC). As such, it can be used both didactically and in professional automation tasks. Its main advantages are its cost-benefit, ease of use, and integration with several other devices. There are currently a number of different Rpi models, for example, the Raspberry Pi 3...

INTRODUÇÃO: Sistemas computacionais de síntese de voz têm alcançado maior robustez e sofisticação, especialmente na última década. Como consequência disso, tecnologias da fala sintética estão cada vez mais presentes e acessíveis (em diversos dispositivos) na vida moderna. De forma rudimentar, eles podem ser explicados como sistemas autônomos que sã...

Advances in technology have made smaller and more sophisticated portable computers possible. Such devices have at least one processor unit (CPU), memory unit, input/output peripheral devices, and storage disks. These are the basic components to create an embedded system (ES), which in turn is a system dedicated to complete a specific task or functi...
