About
WaveVision converts images into sound and sound back into images using Fast Fourier Transform. Every pixel's luminance maps to an audio frequency, producing a unique sonic signature for any image.
Powered by Apple's Accelerate framework for real-time FFT processing — everything runs on-device with no network connection required.
Customize the frequency range, matrix resolution, and playback parameters to shape how your images sound. Export the result as an M4A audio file or as a video combining the original image with the generated audio.
A unique tool for artists, musicians, researchers, and anyone curious about the intersection of visual and auditory perception.

What's New in WaveVision

Text through the air. • Air Text. Type a note, a link or a Wi-Fi password and play it: it becomes a few seconds of sound, and the phone next to you listens and shows the text. No pairing, no network, no key to hand over. Sixteen bytes of error correction ride along, so a cough or a clink is repaired, not fatal. • Save it as audio too: an .m4a that any speaker can play at the listening phone, from a voice memo, a message or a laptop. • Receive shows what it hears as it hears it: found the start, receiving 34 of 122 tones, decoded, with Copy and Open Link. • If WaveVision is earning its keep, it may ask you for a rating with Apple's own star sheet, at most a few times a year, never mid-conversion.
