Description

Noise is present in our everyday life and can seriously impact our health and living environment. In Phononic Vibes, we want to make Silence as the new Sound, controlling annoying noise tones with a sustainable approach and design-tech perspective. Improving people’s lives is definitively connected to technology, but also to sustainability, since the improvement should be significant and durable over time for both humankind and the world, we live it in. Therefore, there is a double responsibility for innovation and new technology. Phononic Vibes’ new technology originates in 2018 from the research activity at Politecnico di Milano and Massachusetts Institute of Technology of its founders in the field of MetaMaterials to achieve and engineer novel and unmatched properties, focusing on materials with periodic architected topology. Within the first 3-years of technology-market fit, the technology development team adjusted the tecnology to define the best product portfolio in three market segments: Infrastructure Railways and Construction, Transportation and Appliances.

The MetaMaterial Technology

Phononic Vibes’ new technology originates in 2018 from the research activity at Politecnico di Milano and Massachusetts Institute of Technology of its founders in the field of MetaMaterials. Acoustic MetaMaterials are artificial structures that allow the manipulation of acoustic waves, giving rise to other effects. MetaMaterial properties is given by their fundamental unit: the Unit Cells and their repetition. The incoming acoustic wave “input” gets reflected and absorbed by the unit cells thanks to a specific topology and modular structure. Working with the MetaMaterial technology, Phononic Vibes is able as a DeepTech team to orchestrate international expertise and knowledge in the sound environment to tackle the noise problem in all aspects of our living, considering both performances and sustainability. Being Material agnostic, MetaMaterials “go beyond” the raw material itself, performing thanks to shape and topology. This makes possible to use whatever raw material, and Phononic Vibes chose recycled. Within the first 3-years of technology-market fit, the technology development team adjusted our unit cell, the fundamental building block, defining the best product portfolio in three market segments: Infrastruture, Transportation and Appliances.
