Abstract
An acoustic system is disclosed. The acoustic system includes a number of acoustic panel sections having a variety of acoustic properties. Each acoustic panel section is configured to be mounted on an interior surface of a building and cooperates with the other acoustic panel sections to define a pattern on the interior surface of the building.
Claims18
An acoustic system, comprising:
- a plurality of wall-mounted sections of a first type, each including:
- (i) a sound absorptive substrate, and (ii) a polyester shell of a first type positioned over the sound absorptive substrate, the polyester shell of a first type being configured to be mounted on an interior surface of a building such that at least some sound waves pass through the polyester shell of a first type, and
- a plurality of wall-mounted sections of a second type, each including a polyester shell of a second type that is configured to be mounted on the interior surface of the building with the first polyester shell,
- wherein the polyester shells of a first type each have an outer edge resistant to bending, and wherein the polyester shells of a second type each have an outer edge resistant to bending, and
- wherein the plurality of wall-mounted sections of a second type are configured to reflect sound waves and the plurality of wall-mounted sections of a first type and the plurality of wall-mounted sections of a second type are configured to be peripherally adjacent so as to define a pattern on the interior surface of the building.

An acoustic system, comprising:
- a plurality of wall-mounted sections of a first type, each being configured to be mounted on an interior surface of a building, and each of the plurality of wall-mounted sections of a first type including:
- (i) a sound absorptive substrate, and (ii) a polyester shell of a first type positioned over the sound absorptive substrate, and
- a plurality of wall-mounted sections of a second type, each being configured to be acoustically coupled to one of the plurality of wall-mounted sections of a first type and mounted on the interior surface of the building, each of the plurality of wall-mounted section of a second type including a polyester shell of a second type,
- wherein of the plurality of wall-mounted sections of a second type are one of (i) a reflective section that is configured to reflect sound waves or (ii) an acoustically transparent section that is configured to permit the passage of sound waves, and
- wherein the plurality of wall-mounted sections of a first type and the plurality of wall-mounted sections of a second type are configured to be peripherally adjacent so as to define a pattern on the interior surface of the building.
