Non-stationary signals The considered spectra difference is at higher frequency range. Thus, such peaks were not removed, yet.
Enhancement of Spectra Difference The difference is not getting worse due to application of the microphone array Beamwidth ~60o Beamwidth >~120o

Main goal is to find collaboration with industry/business. Project AComIn "Advanced Computing for Innovation“ FP7 Capacity Programme. Host – Institute of Information and Communication Technologies at the Bulgarian Academy of Sciences.
Conclusions • Frequency resolution of the Acoustic Camera is modified from 1/3 octave to 4 Hz. • Comparison of the spectra shows opportunity to detect difference to good bearings. • Non-contact diagnosis is implemented. Future Plan: Automatic detection of defects (using the spectra) will be implemented for priori unknown background noise.
