Spatial Instrument allows you to experience your surroundings, challenge your perception of depth, and understand your space through new senses.

Machine learning and computer vision allow us to create a digital representation of a room, to recognise and catalogue individual objects.

In an Augmented Reality prototype, we are using this data for sound modulation and spatialized sound emitters, to create an interactive spatial instrument.

New Perspectives

This Augmented Reality prototype makes every object in your room play its part in an ever-changing soundscape – challenging your perception and understanding space.

A sensorial translation from sight to sound opens up a new perspective. An experiment to break up how we traditionally validate harmony and balance in interior design.

Future Technologies

A digital 3D representation of space and depth allows you to read and understand your surroundings.

Previously, this kind of information required a custom setup, but having LiDAR in a handheld device, and computer vision AI that can recognise and catalogue individual items in the room, creates possibilities for new experiences.
