Every color
has a sound.
Sonic Aura is an audio system that recognizes colors captured by the camera and activates sound compositions mapped to the chromatic profile. Built for installations, environments and retail where scenes evolve slowly.
Synesthesia is the consumer app that demonstrates Sonic Aura technology. Download it to see the engine in action.
How it works
A proprietary four-stage pipeline
Capture
The camera analyzes the colorimetric zones of the frame, extracting the dominant chroma and perceived temperature of the environment.
Recognition
The color is classified across seven semantic categories (reds, blues, warms, deeps, neutrals, greens, brights) through a proprietary algorithm calibrated for aesthetic coherence.
Sound activation
Each category triggers a set of 4 audio tracks (Bass · Pad · Melody · Texture) selected from a library of 28 binaural stereo sounds in C minor.
Transition
When the scene changes color, audio compositions crossfade smoothly, keeping the experience continuous without perceptible breaks.
Use cases
Where Sonic Aura creates value
Museums & Installations
Turn artworks, exhibitions and architecture into immersive synesthetic experiences. Audio reacts to ambient light and visitor movement.
Brand Experience & Retail
Build dynamic sonic identities for windows, flagship stores and pop-ups. The product itself becomes the generator of the brand's sound.
Wellness & Meditation
Embed the engine in spas, yoga studios and wellness centers. Ambient colors become the natural soundtrack of the experience.
Events & Performance
Live shows where the camera reads lights, costumes and set design to generate reactive music that scores the performance.
Proprietary technology
Sound design, not a playlist
The technology is already in production inside the consumer app Synesthesia, available on App Store in 4 languages. The codebase is Flutter with modular architecture and can be ported to Unity, Unreal, macOS, visionOS and embedded hardware.
- 0128 custom binaural stereo sounds in C minor — all compositions are harmonically coherent with one another
- 024-layer architecture (Bass · Pad · Melody · Texture) with dedicated frequency separation
- 03Sculpted EQ with anti-muddiness notch, 2-3kHz presence, 8-10kHz air on every track
- 04Organic noise beds (brown · pink · white) to remove synthetic loop feeling
- 05Subtle modulations: slow flanger, vibrato, stereo aphaser, chorus
- 06Professionally pre-produced compositions, not real-time synthesis
The best demo is the product itself.
Synesthesia is available for free on App Store. Within 30 seconds of downloading you'll see Sonic Aura in action: point the camera, hear the sound of color, move the phone to feel the 3D spatialization.
