When storing images the picture is separated into pixels, and the pixels’ colors can be defined with the RGB scale. So the computer can digitally store and send images as numbers. How does it do the same with sound files?
In: Technology
* Sound is captured digitally in a two step process:
* First sound is converted to a varying voltage through a microphone.
* The microphone has a small piece of material that vibrates when a sound is made.
* These vibrations cause a small device called a transducer to create a tiny voltage that mimics the movement of the air due to the sound.
* Then an electric device measures that voltage thousands of times a second and stores the value in digital form.
* Those digital values are now just like any other piece of digital data and can be stored or transmitted just like your emails or a video.
