 Mission & Philosophy
Our mission is to "create extraordinary and lasting sensory designs through science, engineering and art." We take great care to listen to the needs of the client and understand how to design systems within their budgets. We have designed acoustic spaces ranging in size from 500 to 25,000 seats and routinely partner with architects and contractors to accomplish demanding results for our customers. EAI follows through on the design to see that it is installed to our specifications.

The Cutting Edge
We at EAI are very proactive in the pursuit of technologies and training in order to provide our customers with cutting edge designs. One such example of EAI's capabilities is the computerized analysis of physical room acoustics and the ability to LISTEN to the acoustics of a space or an engineered sound system, BEFORE it is built! This process is known as auralization We know that the best way to judge acoustic and audio system performance and quality is to listen with your own ears... just the way you would if buying a stereo sound system for your home or car. Auralization software allows you to do just that... even before the facility is under construction! |
 Staff Expertise
Our staff has earned professional recognition in acoustics, electronics, and arts, including a multiple Grammy Award winning recording engineer and recipient of the Federal Highway Administration's 1997 Environmental Excellence Award in Noise Abatement. We hold memberships in the Acoustical Society of America (ASA), National Council of Acoustical Consultants (NCAC), Audio Engineering Society (AES), National Transportation Research Board (NTRB), and serve as adjunct faculty members to Lebanon Valley College and Harrisburg Area Community College. Through continuous quality improvement, we strive to offer designs that maximize system performance within allocated budgets. Our ability to provide a direct design linkage between acoustics and engineered audio video presentation and control systems, theatrical lighting, and stage equipment -- in one integrated design package -- is what sets Environmental Acoustics, Inc. apart. |
