Hideki Kawahara, Kohei Yatabe, Ken-Ichi Sakakibara

TL;DR
This paper introduces sound safeguarding, a method allowing any sound to be used for acoustic measurements, supported by developed tools for preparation, real-time measurement, and reporting, with open-source resources for practical use.
Contribution
The paper presents new tools and an adaptable method for acoustic measurement using arbitrary sounds, expanding practical applications and open-sourcing the solutions.
Findings
Tools for sound preparation and measurement are successfully developed.
The method is adaptable and improved through practical applications.
Open-source tools facilitate broader adoption and environmental improvements.
Abstract
We demonstrate tools and applications developed based on the method of "sound safeguarding," which enables any sound to be used for acoustic measurements. We developed tools for preparation, interactive and real-time measurement, and report generation. We extended and modified the method during its development based on its application in various practical situations. We have open-sourced these tools and encourage prospective users to use them to improve their acoustic environments.
