Soundmap - See Sounds on Your Webcam
Soundmap turns your webcam and microphone into a visual sound camera. By aligning your phone as a marker, it overlays a real-time orb that estimates sound direction based on microphone envelopes. This lets you see where sounds are coming from on your screen, making audio localization intuitive. Perfect for developers, musicians, or anyone curious about spatial audio. The tool supports ambisonics with B-format and offers settings for mic spacing, camera view, and rotation. Just start your camera, connect your phone, and watch sounds come to life.
The orb is an estimate, not synchronized microphone triangulation.

It’s either not working or the work flow is confusing and I messed something up, at least write some context to understand what is it and how to connect both. Also, it does max the cpu just opening that link.

Is it normal that it doesnt detect my mouth when i speak ? the sound of my voice creates random patterns. it works well for other sounds tho

Just tried it. Created almost totally random patterns on the screen in a silent room.
