Auralization

Auralization is the process of representing sound through visual means, allowing people to hear what a space or environment would sound like when specific audio sources are present. It’s commonly used in architecture and urban planning to simulate how music, conversations, or background noise might resonate in a building or outdoor area before it’s built. By using computer models and sound simulations, designers can identify and address acoustic issues, ensuring spaces are comfortable and functional for their intended use. Essentially, auralization helps in understanding and enhancing our auditory experience of environments.
