Abstract
A method of grouping together pieces of equipment that are capable of emitting sound signals, the method comprising the steps of: causing each piece of equipment to emit a test sound signal; causing the test sound signal to be received by each piece of equipment that is capable of receiving sound signals, and causing each of these pieces of equipment to evaluate a recognition level for said test sound signal; or each pair of pieces of equipment Ei and Ej, evaluating a mutual recognition level representative both of a recognition level N(i, j) for the piece of equipment Ei receiving a test sound signal emitted by the piece of equipment Ej, and also of a recognition level N(j, i); on the basis of the mutual recognition level, determining whether or not the pieces of equipment Ei and Ej belong to a common sound space.
