The mix: in the bar, an American scientist and inventor talking to a technology journalist.
The result: fascinating clarity.
The read: the “cocktail party problem”.
– standing in a room full of people, drink in hand, trying to hear what your fellow guest is saying.
Electrical engineer Keith McElveen, founder and chief technology officer of Wave Sciences, became interested in the problem when he was working for the US government on a war crimes case.
“What we were trying to figure out was who ordered the massacre of civilians. Some of the evidence included recordings with a bunch of voices all talking at once – and that’s when I learned what the “cocktail party problem” was,” he says.
N.B. When we add news to this website, we always ask those mentioned that it meets with their approval.
As per usual, I asked Emma and Keith. Keith’s response amazed me.
“I like it! Amazing connections and even work (tests, were) going on in your place!
In fact, I made test recordings for the invention process there (at the R&C) one afternoon!“
How exciting! Does that make us part of history?
