Abstract :
A flexible and transparent loudspeaker driven by PVDF (polyvinylidenefluoride) is proposed. Fabricated prototype loudspeaker had flexibility and transparency, and its acoustic characteristics and motion principle were investigated. The investigation yielded low distortion characteristics of the proposed loudspeaker, and such advantages originated from the assemblage of the plastic film and the PVDF.
