Wrong. All you would need is any source of sufficient background noise. Once the noise pollution reaches sufficient saturation, discerning individual wave forms will be next to impossible. It wouldn't matter if you had any amount of speakers between 1 and 134567876543456 and each one utilized an isolation pad. The speaker creates sound by disturbing the air. Disturb the air enough, and it's game over for this tech in it's current state.
The setup for these experiments consisted of an object, a loudspeaker, and the camera, arranged as shown in Figure 4. The loudspeaker was always placed on its own stand separate from the surface holding the object in order to avoid contact vibrations.

This is about CONTACT VIBRATIONS meaning the speakers and the chips would occupy the same surface area. When the chips and the speaker were on different surface areas they carried out the experiment just fine and there wasn't any "DISTURBANCE IN THE AIR."
LOL, you guys just make up this nonsense as you go.

In fact, the speakers were right next to the chips in the experiment and they didn't "disturb the air." That's just nonsense. They wanted to minimize CONTACT VIBRATIONS NOT DISTURB THE AIR VIBRATIONS. That's just kooky talk because this technology recreates sound through visual data.

I said, it doesn't create a disturbance in the air that can mask the sound that's being recreated!!
The Researchers never said anything about disturbances in the air that can mask the sound that's being created.
That wouldn't make any sense because the disturbance in the air would have to mask vibrations that are less than 100th of a pixel and are being recreated through visual data.
THEY TALKED ABOUT CONTACT VIBRATIONS NOT ANY DISTURBANCES IN THE AIR THAT CAN MASK THE SOUND THAT'S BEING RECREATED!!
Here's what they said:

So once again, you guys debate against a claim that was never made because your position and claims are absurd and the only thing you can do is make up things to debate.
Show where I said Air Pressure has nothing to do with this process.

No, disturbance in the air wouldn't disturb the air enough to mask the sound that's being created.
I then said:
They wanted to minimize CONTACT VIBRATIONS NOT DISTURB THE AIR VIBRATIONS. That's just kooky talk because this technology recreates sound through visual data.
I never said soundwaves don't create a disturbance in the air. I said the vibrations from this disturbance can't mask the sound that's being recreated and this is why the Researchers talked about CONTACT VIBRATIONS and made sure the speaker and the chips were not on the same surface.
Acoustic transmission in building design refers to a number of processes by which sound can be transferred from one part of a building to another. Typically these are:
1. Airborne transmission - a noise source in one room sends air pressure waves which induce vibration to one side of a wall or element of structure setting it moving such that the other face of the wall vibrates in an adjacent room. Structural isolation therefore becomes an important consideration in the acoustic design of buildings. Highly sensitive areas of buildings, for example recording studios, may be almost entirely isolated from the rest of a structure by constructing the studios as effective boxes supported by springs. Air tightness also becomes an important control technique. A tightly sealed door might have reasonable sound reduction properties, but if it is left open only a few millimeters its effectiveness is reduced to practically nothing. The most important acoustic control method is adding mass into the structure, such as a heavy dividing wall, which will usually reduce airborne sound transmission better than a light one.
2. Impact transmission - a noise source in one room results from an impact of an object onto a separating surface, such as a floor and transmits the sound to an adjacent room. A typical example would be the sound of footsteps in a room being heard in a room below. Acoustic control measures usually include attempts to isolate the source of the impact, or cushioning it. For example carpets will perform significantly better than hard floors.
3. Flanking transmission - a more complex form of noise transmission, where the resultant vibrations from a noise source are transmitted to other rooms of the building usually by elements of structure within the building. For example, in a steel framed building, once the frame itself is set into motion the effective transmission can be pronounced.

A disturbance in the air will not create vibrations that can mask the sound that's being recreated unless there's contact vibrations.

The researchers developed an algorithm that combines the output of the filters to infer the motions of an object as a whole when it’s struck by sound waves. Different edges of the object may be moving in different directions, so the algorithm first aligns all the measurements so that they won’t cancel each other out. And it gives greater weight to measurements made at very distinct edges — clear boundaries between different color values.
In other experiments, however, they used an ordinary digital camera. Because of a quirk in the design of most cameras’ sensors, the researchers were able to infer information about high-frequency vibrations even from video recorded at a standard 60 frames per second.
While this audio reconstruction wasn’t as faithful as that with the high-speed camera, it may still be good enough to identify the gender of a speaker in a room; the number of speakers; and even, given accurate enough information about the acoustic properties of speakers’ voices, their identities.
