R&D Projects

Achieve superior product acoustics through collaborative engineering, advanced simulation tools, and lab testing tailored to your product’s design and use.

Sharing acoustic results with colleagues

Product Acoustic Engineering for Performance and Precision

From consumer electronics to transportation systems, acoustic performance plays a key role in product quality and user experience. At Mecanum, we go beyond standard testing—we co-develop acoustic solutions that align with your functional, technical, and financial constraints.

Why Partner with Mecanum for a R&D Project?

Advanced Acoustic Testing Facilities

Leverage our independent acoustic lab, complete with high-end measurement tools and simulation software to optimize your product acoustics—from R&D to final validation.

Complete Testing Ecosystem

We offer a modular test cabin for early-phase evaluations and access to large-scale transmission loss setups through our academic partner, Université de Sherbrooke, for full-product assessment.

Metamaterials and Low-Frequency Optimization

Our pioneering methods for metamaterial acoustic treatment address frequency-specific performance needs, particularly for low-frequency isolation, critical in aerospace and automotive applications.

Scientific, Collaborative Development

Every solution is co-designed using numerical models, experimental validations, and continuous feedback—ensuring feasibility, scalability, and acoustic effectiveness.
