APPARATUSES AND METHODS FOR SOUND RECORDING, MANIPULATION, DISTRIBUTION AND PRESSURE WAVE CREATION THROUGH ENERGY TRANSFER BETWEEN PHOTONS AND MEDIA PARTICLES

摘要

Recording, manipulating, distributing and creating sound pressure waves in one or more media by employing an apparatus that transfers the energy between photons and particles of the media is disclosed. An exemplary apparatus comprises one or more lasers and an isotropic or anisotropic medium for photon processing and distribution. An exemplary method comprises determining the target locations for sound pressure wave recording, manipulating or creation; transmitting photons to the target locations; transferring photon energy to media particles to create or manipulate a sound pressure wave; or transferring energy of media particles to photons for recording or manipulating a sound pressure wave.
