Time Domain Vs Frequency Domain - Why Fourier Matters
Time Domain Vs Frequency Domain - Why Fourier Matters
Interactive Demos
Welcome to our presentation on real-life applications of
Fourier Transforms. We will explore its role in medical
imaging, earthquake analysis, data compression, and voice
recognition. We'll bridge the gap between theory and
practice with interactive demonstrations.
From Time to Frequency – Why Fourier
Matters

Signals are time-based like audio or ECG. Reveals which frequencies are present.

Fourier analysis transforms time-based signals into the frequency domain, uncovering hidden structures.
It's the foundation of modern signal processing and data interpretation.

Non-Invasive Imaging
Without Fourier Transform, non-invasive imaging like MRI isn’t
possible.
Seismic Data
Fourier analysis identifies tremor frequencies.
Avoid Resonance
Buildings are designed to avoid common quake
frequencies.
Fourier analysis plays a vital role in audio compression and speech-based AI systems. It enables efficient data storage
