Consortium
The strategic partners of the DREAMSys project consortium led by NPL Management Ltd are QinetiQ Ltd, Hoare Lea Acoustics and Castle Group Ltd.
While each partner has a specific role, all will be involved in every stage of the project, ensuring both the compatibly of each component and that the resulting DREAMSys array is fit for purpose.
- National Physical Laboratory
- NPL has the key management responsibility of DREAMSys.
- Castle Group
- Castle will use their experience in designing commercial products for the noise measurement market to integrate the MEMS microphone into an instrument with wireless and signal processing functionality.
- Hoare Lea
- Hoare Lea will pilot deployment of the system to gather noise data over several months, with NPL providing additional resource to manage the ongoing data collection.
- QinetiQ
- The presence of QinetiQ means that the consortium can exploit high-performance sensor technology originating from the defence arena, and use it in environmental applications, enhancing acoustic measurement capabilities in that field.
