Dirigent Acoustics at EU Opportunity Week 2024

Dirigent Acoustics at EU Opportunity Week 2024

As part of EU Opportunity Week, we presented two of our successful innovative projects, implemented with the support of EU funds and Republic of Serbia Innovation Fund:

  • System for detection, localization, tracking and recognition of acoustic events at distances of up to 20 km - a solution that pushes the boundaries in acoustics (part of the Horizon2020 BorderUAS project no. 883272); and
  • System for automated field measurement of sound insulation and reflection for noise protection barriers.

As we continue to push boundaries, there are many more amazing innovations ahead of us!

Proud to have been a lecturer at the 4th GrInShield Twinning Project Workshop

Proud to have been a lecturer at the 4th GrInShield Twinning Project Workshop

We are delighted to share with you the reflections of our CEO, Dejan Todorović, on his experience at the 4th GrInShield Twinning Project:

Over three incredible days, scientists from Serbia, France, Germany, and other EU countries came together to showcase groundbreaking research in nanotechnology. Experts from fields such as chemistry, physics, material science, medicine, ecology, and acoustics shared their latest innovations in nanomaterials. This event, organized by the Vinca Institute of Nuclear Sciences and the GrInShield Twinning Project partners, far exceeded my expectations.

The workshop was a hub of brilliant minds and young, eager researchers and students, all driven by a thirst for knowledge. It was an absolute pleasure to meet new colleagues and discuss future collaborations in multidisciplinary research.

Special thanks to our gracious host, project coordinator Svetlana Jovanovic and her dynamic team for their meticulous attention to detail.

I am particularly proud of the engagement during my lecture, “Advancements in Acoustic Technology: The Role of Graphene Membranes,” where I shared my decade-long journey through the fascinating world of acoustics and nanotechnology. This journey has been enriched by my fellow scientists Marko Spasenović, Iva Salom, Marijana M., and Aleksandar Matkovic, as well as my closest associates at Dirigent Acoustics, Mirjana Mihajlovic, and Milica Raickovic.

We were honored to have François-Xavier KOWANDY, Science Attaché of the French Embassy in Belgrade, attend the opening lectures.

The past three days have invigorated me, and I look forward to exploring new horizons in science with renewed energy and optimism!

Expanding the Sophisticated Audio System at RTV Slovenija

Expanding the Sophisticated Audio System at RTV Slovenija

This July, RTV Slovenija’s audio capabilities took a significant leap forward with the new installation in their main studio, Studio 1. Our STAGETEC system has significantly grown in capacity, now featuring the impressive 60-fader AVATUS console.

Previously installed, the 48-fader AVATUS in Studio 4 flawlessly handled the audio for the world’s top sports events. Now, with the addition of its bigger sibling, the NEXUS network has expanded to include 8 Base Devices (BD), ensuring all inputs and outputs are accessible across both studios. Each BD is equipped with a variety of audio, control, and logic interfaces, from high-quality analogue inputs and outputs, including state-of-the-art clipping-proof 32-bit microphone inputs, to AoIP AES67 and DANTE IOs.

It was again a great pleasure for our on-site engineering team to collaborate with the RTV team, Miha Bukovec and Metod Komatar.

Inspirational Visit to the New Knauf Insulation Acoustic Testing Laboratory

Inspirational Visit to the New Knauf Insulation Acoustic Testing Laboratory

Dirigent Acoustics’ “Slovenia expedition team” Mirjana Mihajlovic and Dejan Todorović had the privilege of visiting the brand-new state-of-the-art Laboratory for Acoustic Testing near the Knauf Insulation Slovenija factory in Škofja Loka. Our dear colleague and friend, Maro Puljizevic, head of Acoustics at Knauf Insulation, graciously hosted us.

During our visit, we had the opportunity to meet with teams from Knauf Montenegro - Iva Kopitović and Čedomir Milutinović, and Knauf Insulation Srbija - Jovana Arsić and Goran Prolic. Together with Maro and his team, we engaged in discussions on the latest advancements in sound insulation and its implementation in KSI (Knauf Sound Insulation software, developed by Dirigent Acoustics and financed by regional Knauf members in Serbia, Montenegro, and Bulgaria).

Our discussions were both inspirational and fruitful, leading to the scheduling of user training sessions in Montenegro this September.

Our expert team in Room Acoustics, Sound Insulation and Noise Control - Milica Raickovic, Natasa Radovanovic, Mirjana Mihajlovic, Tamara Vukovic, Nataša Lukić, Luka Jovanović and Dejan Todorović - stands ready to provide you with the optimal solution for your project.

Advancing Acoustic Innovations for a Secure and Sustainable Future

Advancing Acoustic Innovations for a Secure and Sustainable Future

We are thrilled to announce our successful contribution to the BorderUAS project, where we developed a groundbreaking AI-based acoustic device prototype (TRL6). The final review meeting of the BorderUAS took place this week in Brussels in front of experts from the EUCommission Horizon2020.

During the final review meeting, Dejan Todorović showcased the development, capabilities, and field tests of this innovative far-field acoustic detection system. This game-changing technology was developed in collaboration with Iva Salom of Institute Mihailo Pupin.

Our acoustic system demonstrates immense potential across various applications, including perimeter security, detection, localization, and classification of acoustic events at long distances such as speech, drones, wildlife, and more.

We are proud to be at the forefront of advancing acoustic technology for a safer, more sustainable, and secure future with care and respect for wildlife.
