1Introduction

1.1 What is Panelplayer?

Panelplayer is a sophisticated amplified player of audio MP3 with a solid state memory,

designed to manage sequences of audio messages, musical items, commercial

communications and all kinds of audio MP3 files in a rapid, effective and interactive way.

Coupled with switches, touch-sensors or infrared movement sensors, it permits one to

create info-interactive areas, didactic and museum routes, information totems for trade

fairs and expositions, musical shows and interactive points for commercial promotions.

1.2 What is Mp3?

Mp3 is an acronym for Mpeg-1 layer 3. This is an audio compression standard which

eliminates sounds which the human ear cannot hear via a psycho-acoustic algorithm. The

purpose of this compression is to reduce the space taken up by an audio file while still

ensuring excellent quality. The greater the compression, the less the audio quality. The

right compromise, which guarantees a quality comparable to that of a Compact Disc, is

128 Kbps (thousands of bits per second) which represents the most widely used manner,

and reduces the size of an uncompressed file by 10 times.

1.3 Encoder

Software which compresses a CD audio or wave file in MP3. There are many programmes

of this kind, and it is virtually impossible to say which is the best.

1.4 Decoder

Software which decompresses an MP3 audio file in order to send it to a digital-analog

converter and reconstruct the original audio signal.

1.5 Player

Hardware and software system able to read MP3 audio files. Panelplayer is able to carry

out this function.

1.6 Wave

High quality audio format (extension .wav), compatible with the tracks of normal music

CD’s. If one uses a wave file in format 44.1 KHz/sec. at 16 bit in stereo, one will get

exactly the same quality as a music CD, but the size of the file is about 10Mb per minute.

1.7 Audio compression in various formats.

The following graphic shows the space taken up by an uncompressed audio file of about 5

minutes (.wav) and compressed in MP3 at 128Kbps (MP3).

Wave 51,1 MB

MP3 4,6 MB
