Description

Soft dB SMS-SEN - active volume control sensor for smartSMS-NET system

The Soft dB SMS-SEN is an active sensor designed to automatically adjust sound masking volume in smartSMS-NET systems. Using advanced signal processing, the sensor accurately distinguishes room activity from masking sound, enabling dynamic volume control based on ambient noise levels.
