Meet Hummble
At IRNAS, innovation is not confined to the confines of the company’s walls. Instead, it extends to supporting projects that have the potential to make a significant impact. One such project is Hummble, an active noise reduction system for HVAC applications. Hummble is successfully addressing the noise pollution caused by heat pumps, making them quieter and more environmentally friendly. With their solution, they are assisting the existing passive noise reduction techniques where they fall short.
Heat pumps are widely used for heating and cooling buildings, but their operational noise can be a source of nuisance for residents and surrounding environments. Hummble tackles this issue by utilizing advanced noise cancellation techniques. The system comprises a combination of sensors, microphones, and control algorithms that actively monitor and analyse the noise produced by the heat pump. It then generates an anti-noise signal to counteract and cancel out the unwanted noise, resulting in a quieter and more pleasant environment.
Innovation with IRNAS
The development of Hummble exemplifies the collaborative and innovative spirit at IRNAS. The founding team behind this project consists of acoustical engineers and experienced product owners who have leveraged their expertise to create a cutting-edge solution. IRNAS has stepped in fulfilling the needs of a start-up for fast learning and regular iterations. With our process of fast and agile hardware development we’ve enabled a comprehensive support system that empowers the founders to overcome technical barriers, leverage existing knowledge, and make rapid progress.
By supporting projects like Hummble, IRNAS not only demonstrates its commitment to innovation but also reinforces its position as a hub for ground-breaking technologies in various domains.
