The Torso Box HTB V is an easily transportable housing for the safe placement and convenient operation of an artificial head and other measurement devices. HTB V brings the artificial head, which can be mounted quickly and easily on top of the box, into a position that resembles a real human front-seat passenger.

For the hardware configuration of the Torso Box, HEAD acoustics recommends the following components:

The HEAD Supply Box HSB IV.2 serves for the power supply and easy wiring of other devices. Furthermore, it allows pulse signals to be inserted into or coupled out of an audio signal.

The Micro PC is an extremely low-noise industrial PC that does not require a fan and can be used to control the measurement hardware and to record the signals. The computer is remote-controlled via the HEAD Wireless Terminal (HWT I) and is network-capable.

The HEAD Wireless Terminal (HWT I) acts like a portable flat-screen monitor with touchscreen functionality, where no cable constrains your freedom of movement: The wireless communication between Micro PC and HWT I is made possbile by a WLAN adapter for PCMCIA or USB. To charge its battery, the Wireless Terminal is connected to a socket on the HTB V. With a fully-charged battery, the Wireless Terminal is ready for up to 3 hours of mobile operation.

The two-channel frontend BEQ II, to which additional sensors (e.g. microphones or ICP® sensors) can be connected, also allows four-channel measurements. BEQ II is available in two versions: BEQ II.0 and BEQ II.1. The BEQ II.1 version additionally provides several equalization options for aurally-compensated recordings.
