A novel differential microphone design has been proposed by Miles et al. based on the ears of the fly Ormia ochracea . An important aspect of the overall package design for this microphone is the design of a cover to protect the microphone diaphragm from the effects of dust and …

The design and development of a second order MEMS sound pressure gradient sensor is presented in this dissertation. Inspired by the directional hearing ability of the parasitoid fly, Ormia ochracea, a novel first order directional microphone that mimics the mechanical structure …

There exists a gap in the electroacoustic flute repertoire: tonal, melodically-based flute music which utilizes the technology and innovative synthesized sounds available today. At the same time, many flutists are not taught how to perform with synthesized sound or work with mus…
