Abstrakt: Recent demonstrations of real-time source localization systems have used a variety of direction-finding methods. One such system uses a multi-microphone probe to estimate acoustic intensity [Inoue et al., Proc. Meetings Acoust. 29, 025001 (2016)], although the bandwidth of intensity estimates are traditionally limited by the microphone spacing. The Phase and Amplitude Gradient Estimator (PAGE) method [Thomas et al., J. Acoust. Soc. Am. 137, 3366–3376 (2015)] greatly extends the bandwidth of active intensity, providing an accurate method of source localization for a wide bandwidth. An initial system implemented in LabVIEW estimates active intensity using the PAGE method to identify the direction of the source location in real time. Using a paired webcam, the program then overlays the direction as a three-dimensional arrow onto a webcam image. An experiment in an anechoic chamber shows the accuracy of the system is approximately five degrees within the camera’s field of view and the application of real-time drone tracking is also discussed.
