On Translation of Sonar Stimulation to Proper Visual Representation Using a Photometrically Precise Method of Audible Waves Transformation

This research presents a new and consistent approach to the transformation of audible acoustic waves, into definite colors of visible spectrum. The method of the transformation (namely, the main mapping function) is found by regarding how human eye and ear respond to sensory changes and then imposing physical and mathematical constraints vital to the viability of the transformation. Then, by constructing another method as to represent the corresponding color inside sRGB color space (namely, the rendering function), the output color can be shown inside a computer screen. This second function is obtained by applying modifications on normalized CIE tristimulus values for 2 degree field size photometrical data. Finally, the result is extended to properly translate a sound clip to color frames, changing with respect to the changes in the sound clip through time. Such algorithm for processing sound enables a person the deduction of sounds of different sources, through color vision with reasonable quality of details. The main application of such translation of sounds is to aid the Auditory Impaired. The other applications of such method includes simulating a certain type of Synesthesia, determining the cause of seismic waves by the color resulted from its visualization by this method.
