Sound Drive (2022)
Interactive music project released from SONY
Sound Drive is an interactive music project that transforms the driving experience through responsive audio. The system creates a dynamic soundtrack that responds to the driver's actions, the car's movements, and the surrounding environment.
As a key developer on this project, I designed and implemented the real-time audio generation system that powers Sound Drive. The system uses data from the car's sensors to modulate and transform a base musical composition, creating a unique and responsive soundtrack for each journey.
The project was released by Sony in 2022 and has been integrated into select vehicle models. Sound Drive represents a new approach to in-car entertainment, one that blurs the line between music consumption and creation, turning the act of driving into a creative musical experience.
