Professor Lokki's citation for promotion is 鈥渇or bringing sensory evaluation to research of concert hall acoustics鈥. Lokki and his team have invented novel methodology to capture and reproduce the acoustics of concert halls authentically in the laboratory conditions. Such technology enables very accurate comparison of different acoustical conditions, in particular with sensory evaluation methods that go beyond preference judgments.
Lokki has worked as a professor at the Aalto University since 2012.
