  2. Talk:Noise-cancelling headphones - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Noise-cancelling...

    The primary reason other people don't hear the "counter/anti-" noise is because the sound generated by the headphones is specifically designed to cancel out the ambient noise that has made it into the headphone. The wave forms of the intruding ambient sound and the counter-noise cancel out and there is none for other people to hear.

  3. Sound masking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sound_masking

    Sound masking is the inclusion of generated sound (commonly, though inaccurately, referred to as "white noise" or "pink noise") into an environment to mask unwanted sound. It relies on auditory masking. Sound masking is not a form of active noise control (noise cancellation technique); however, it can reduce or eliminate the perception of sound ...

  4. Noise-canceling microphone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noise-canceling_microphone

    The internal electronic circuitry of an active noise-canceling mic attempts to subtract noise signal from the primary microphone. The circuit may employ passive or active noise canceling techniques to filter out the noise, producing an output signal that has a lower noise floor and a higher signal-to-noise ratio.

  5. Control of Noise at Work Regulations 2005 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Control_of_Noise_at_Work...

    The Control of Noise at Work Regulations 2005 place a duty on employers within Great Britain to reduce the risk to their employees health by controlling the noise they are exposed to whilst at work. [1] The regulations were established under the Health and Safety at Work etc. Act 1974 and implement European Council directive 2003/10/EC.

    Discord is a freemium and proprietary chat room program available for web browsers, Windows, Mac, Linux, Android, and iOS. Editors can chat by text like WP:IRC, but also by voice calls, unlike IRC. In 2016, an unofficial Wikimedia Discord server was founded. It is moderated by several trusted Wikimedians, and members should follow the ...

  7. Salting out - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salting_out

    Salting out is typically used to precipitate large biomolecules, such as proteins or DNA. [2] Because the salt concentration needed for a given protein to precipitate out of the solution differs from protein to protein, a specific salt concentration can be used to precipitate a target protein. This process is also used to concentrate dilute ...

  8. Noise reduction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noise_reduction

    Noise reduction is the process of removing noise from a signal. Noise reduction techniques exist for audio and images. Noise reduction algorithms may distort the signal to some degree. Noise rejection is the ability of a circuit to isolate an undesired signal component from the desired signal component, as with common-mode rejection ratio.
