Abstract :
This paper presents a prototype of a smart sound aware environment that captures ambient sounds, analyzes sound situations and gives a be-quiet reminder to someone who generates sound exceeding certain volume level and disturbing others in the same site. It shows the microphone net to sense sound data and the speaker net to send be-quiet reminders. All computers are interconnected with a P2P network atop of the TOMSCOP platform. It discusses how sound data is captured and processed, and when a be-quiet reminder decision is made with analyzing contexts of sounds and users in a room. Some preliminary experimental results are given
