Frederick Vinton Hunt (February 15, 1905 – Buffalo, New York, April 21, 1972) was an inventor, a scientist and a professor at Harvard University who worked in the field of acoustic engineering. He made significant contributions to room acoustics, regulated power supply, lightweight phonograph pickups and electronic reproduction equipment, and notably, during World War II, invented new techniques for sonar (an acronym that he invented, though the gloss was changed by others). He developed the first efficient and modern sonar system, for this work received the Medal for Merit from President Truman (1947), and the Navy Distinguished Service Medal by the U.S. Navy in 1970. ==Education==
Frederick Vinton (Ted) Hunt was born in 1905 in Barnesville, Ohio. He received his B.A. and B.E.E. degrees from Ohio State University in 1924 and 1925, respectively,〔(【引用サイトリンク】author=John V. Bouyoucos )〕 where he was also a member of Phi Beta Kappa, Tau Beta Pi, Sigma Xi, and Eta Kappa Nu.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Audio Engineering Society Obituary: Frederick Vinton Hunt )〕 He received a Master's Degree at Harvard in 1928, and was appointed there as an Instructor in Physics and Communication Engineering.〔(【引用サイトリンク】author=Leo Beranek )〕 He submitted two doctoral theses; one to the Department of Physics in 1933, and one to the Engineering School in 1934.〔(【引用サイトリンク】author=Harry A. Schenck )〕 Both were accepted,〔 but Harvard President James Bryant Conant issued a ruling that no student was allowed to receive more than one doctorate from Harvard University. Since he had already defended the Physics dissertation at the time of the ruling, Hunt accepted a doctorate in Physics. President Conant later conferred the honorary doctorate on Professor Hunt, upon which occasion Hunt joked that this was the second degree he had first earned in 1934.〔
