Miniature sunflower

My miniature sunflower started to bloom after the rainy season!

I sowed the seeds in April, but they didn't grow very well and I thought I had failed.

This flower is about 7 cm long and the grass is about 30-40 cm tall, very compact. Even though it is a sunflower, a small flowerpot is enough.

I'm looking forward to seeing many more of these sunflowers bloom during this summer.

New release - "Wavelet Voice Sonogram" iPhone app.

"Wavelet Voice Sonogram" has been newly released now!

"Wavelet Voice Sonogram" is a new sound spectrogram app that performs time-frequency analysis of acoustic signals.

A spectrogram is a graph that shows the results of a sound frequency spectrum analysis with time on the horizontal axis, frequency on the vertical axis, and signal strength in colors.

This app can perform acoustic analysis and display the spectrograms by using three time-frequency analysis methods, Wavelet analysis, Octave Band analysis, and FFT analysis.





It can record sounds from iPhone built-in microphone. While playing the sound, you can search for the desired sound and analyze it.



This app allows you to easily perform acoustic analysis of speech, instrumental sounds, noise, and more. It can also be used to learn elementary speech analysis.
