Sound Hologram Platform

A 64-speaker system that generates "sound holograms," immersive experiences using objects that seemingly emit sound as they are interacted with in space. Installed as a permanent exhibit in the Children's Museum of Pittsburgh. As a research assistant, I modelled the cabinet in SolidWorks and fabricated the system. I designed the file parametrically to automatically update dimensions based on desired specs. This allows the system to be distributed as a "platform" which can be altered to fit various potential uses and spaces. Using the CNC router, I fabricated, finished, and installed the system.
