China Acoustic Society Audio Engineering Branch
Membership Day and Seminar
May 15, 2019

On May 14, 2019, the Audio Branch of the Chinese Acoustic Society (CAA) held a membership day at the Acoustic Research Institute of the Chinese Academy of Sciences.

During the event, AES Beijing members shared with the development process of AES and the current situation of AES development in China. With the approval of AES Headquarters, AES Beijing took advantage of the opportunity of this event to commend members who have made special contributions to their respective positions for many years and awarded them special contribution awards.
Membership Day is hosted by Mr. Xu Yong, Secretary of Audio Branch. He briefly introduced the long history of cooperation and friendly academic exchanges between the Audio Engineering Branch and the International Audio Engineering Society (AES). He said: The members of the Audio Branch are frequent visitors to the AES International Congress, and they are also one of the academic groups that submit academic papers and give speeches most frequently. Many experts and scholars of the Audio Branch are AES international individual members, and some of them have won the title of associate. The Audio Branch has close cooperation and contact with AES China Membership Group (AES China for short). Today's event is a day for members of the two societies, which provides a full opportunity for members of the two societies to communicate. I hope you will enjoy the academic exchange in the multi-functional hall recently built by our acoustics institute. At the end of the activity, we also organized a visit to the acoustic laboratory.
At the beginning of the event, Mr. Xu Yong invited the organizer to address Mr. Yang Jun, the chairman of the Audio Branch. First of all, he warmly welcomed the members of the two sessions to participate in today's membership day activities. He said that the AES Society was founded in 1948 and has a history of more than 70 years. AES Beijing was founded in May 2012. AES Beijing, adhering to the mission of AES headquarters, actively promotes AES concept, standards and education system in China, and introduces advanced scientific and technological concepts and leading technologies. AES strongly supports and actively participates in the academic activities organized by the Audio Branch. It has made great contributions to promoting international exchanges in the field of audio engineering and improving the technological progress of the domestic industry. It is hoped that the two societies will continue to cooperate and carry out more academic exchanges in the future so as to make due contributions to the great development of audio engineering in China.

Mr. Yang Jun, Chairman of Audio Branch, delivered a speech.

Professor Wang Zexiang, a senior member of AES Beijing, delivered a speech on behalf of AES Society. First of all, he thanked Chairman Yang Jun for his excellent speech. He said that he was very glad to be able to attend the Membership Day today. On behalf of the Beijing Membership Group of AES Society, he thanked Chairman Yang Jun and Professor Xu Yong for their warm invitation and careful preparation. I have worked with the Acoustic Society for many years, and I am a director of the Acoustic Society and a member of the Audio Branch. I know that many members of the Audio Branch are also senior members of AES. The two societies have a long cooperative relationship. I hope that the Audio Branch and AES Society will have more cooperation and contribute to the development of our electro-acoustic industry and audio industry. I hope the members of the two sessions can deepen friendship, exchange technological achievements and enjoy the benefits and happiness brought to you by the membership group through today's gathering. Finally, I wish the event a complete success!

Speech by Professor Wang Zexiang, the representative of AES Beijing Senior Members

In the academic seminar, Yang Jun, the chairman of the Audio Branch, made a brilliant speech on Local Acoustic Field Control Technology. Local acoustic field control (LAFC) refers to the use of loudspeaker arrays to generate arbitrary desired sound field in the local area near the human head. According to different application requirements, it can be divided into local area active noise reduction technology, personal audio system and local area sound field reconstruction technology. Local active noise reduction technology is an effective means to reduce low frequency noise. Personal audio system can play different sounds in the same space and different areas (directions) to avoid crosstalk. Local acoustic field reconstruction can be used to simulate real acoustic environment, virtual reality system or acoustic measurement and evaluation system. This report describes in detail the common technical principles of local acoustic field control and related research work in this direction by Acoustics Institute of Chinese Academy of Sciences in recent years. Teacher Yang Jun's academic report has been welcomed by all of us. They all believe that it has a high academic level and a large amount of information, which is worthy of in-depth discussion and research.

Members listened attentively.

Next, AES Member, Xie Yong, founder of Meiyin Shengguang, shared with us an APP, Customer Requirement Budget Platform (www.avl.top), which was customized for engineering consultation.

Xie Yong, founder of Meiyin Shengguang, give technical reports

Firstly, he elaborated the role of Meiyin Shengguang in the intelligent industry of audio, lighting, machinery and video. Meiyin Shengguang can help engineers to make a complete plan list, quotation, drawing and demonstration animation in 10 seconds with mobile phone in front of Party A. Real-time communication and real-time adjustment of the plan can greatly improve the pre-operation efficiency and the success rate of taking bills for new projects, which can save a lot of manpower, time and adjust the efficiency. Then he emphasized that the principle of realizing the software platform is to strive for science and conform to the facts. The design principle is to synthesize large data of various Hall schemes, combine a series of algorithms, mathematical models and machine in-depth learning, and refine a hall type into hundreds of schemes according to different areas, grades and design methods in order to meet the precise needs of customers.
We have great interest in the platform developed by Xie Yong's team. We hope that this platform can be recognized by the industry and play a greater role.

In the following session, Section Chair Wang Shusen introduced the development of AES this year, especially in China's development process and future plans. He highlighted the outstanding contributions made by the new and old members of AES in introducing AES into China and promoting its development in China. Their contributions will be described in detail at the subsequent awards ceremony.

Then, Mr. Xie Yong came on the stage again and spoke on behalf of the enterprise members. He described the gains and support he had received since he joined the AES membership group, and his experience in attending the AES International Conference and Exhibition. He said that the AES Society is a truly productive society that can organize people to discuss technology. With the strong support of AES Society, the business of Rare Client Audio Company he founded has formed a certain scale, and has been continuously developing new products, which has a certain influence in the industry. This time, AES organization has given great efforts to cultivate the sound and light platform for his second pioneering development. Publicizing the technology and function of this platform in AES activities has greatly inspired our R&D team. We will certainly live up to AES organization's expectations, accelerate platform construction, deepen design, and strive to develop good products suitable for market needs.

Speech by Xie Yong, Representative of Enterprise Membership Unit

In his speech, Zhao Ping, a well-known sound engineer and founder of Omnidirectional Studio, spoke about the strong support and unexpected good effect of AES Institute for its latest earphone project, which made the research and development work of his team run smoothly and effectively. Here, he thanks AES and Chair Wang Shusen for their encouragement. He not only rekindled his passion and determination to develop new technologies, but also opened the door for respectful exchanges with the international technology industry. He believes that the AES Society is a worthy academic organization for practitioners, and the platform built by AES is a good place to exchange technology.
