Several members of CAHR will be presenting their work at the Acoustics 2012 Hong Kong conference. This conference, taking place from May 13-18, is a joint meeting of four societies: 163rd meeting of the Acoustical Society of America, the 8th meeting of the of Acoustical Society of China, the 11th Western Pacific Acoustics Conference, and the Hong Kong Institute of Acoustics.
Sabine van Huffel - professor at the department of Electrical Engineering, Katholieke Universiteit, Leuven, Belgium - will be giving a guest lecture on Matrix/Tensor Based EEG Signal Processing: Algorithms and Applications.
When talkers speak, they also listen. Talkers routinely adapt to their interlocutors and environment, maintaining intelligibility and dialogue fluidity in a way that promotes efficient exchange of information. The Listening Talker Workshop held in Edinburgh from May 2-3 (http://listening-talker.org/workshop), brought together a wide range of researchers to address this multi-disciplinary topic. As part of the workshop, CAHR presented two posters and an invited talk.
Professor Morten Lind has retired, but continues as professor emeritus at DTU Electrical Engineering. On this occasion we want to invite you to a one-day seminar followed by a reception 14 May 2012.

CAHR will be well represented at this year's meeting being held in San Diego, CA, USA from Feb. 25-29. Several members from CAHR will be presenting their research on a wide range of topics:
Our new test facilities for climate friendly energy technology is now inaugurated.
As per 1st December 2011 Öncel Acar has joined Electromagnetic Systems as industrial PhD student in cooperation with MTI Radiocomp.
The titel is:"Methods of tuning the centre freguency and bandwidth in microwave high-Q filters for communication systems" and is supervised by Associate professor Tom Keinicke Johansen.
When grown-ups and kids speak, they listen to the sound of their voice and make corrections based on that auditory feedback. But new evidence shows that toddlers don't respond to their own voice in quite the same way, according to a report published online on December 22, 2011 in Current Biology, a Cell Press publication by associate professor Ewen MacDonald, DTU Elektro.

The Center for Playware have, as a co-applicant to Patient @ Home, been awarded funding by the Strategic Research Council for Technology and Innovation's SPIR program for research in welfare technology. The Center for Playware's role in the project will be to investigate the use of modular playware in rehabilitation. In addition to this, the Center for Playware will also collaborate with Prof. Ishiguro from Osaka University as an already existing cooperation between the two research groups, regarding the development of telenoids and social playware.
As per 1st November 2011 Rasmus Schandorph Michaelsen has joined Electromagnetic Systems as industrial PhD student in cooperation with Weibe Scientific A/S.
The titel is:"Custom-made MMIC receiver front-end for X-band radar with focus on low Phase and 1/f-noise" and is supervised by Associate professor Tom Keinicke Johansen.
