A patented AI that learns how spaces affect people — deployed inside its own venue.

Sonic Vision is a closed-loop computer vision system that observes, adapts, and optimizes physical environments in real time. We built the venue around it: a warehouse-greenhouse social space where the AI controls audio, lighting, climate, and programming across six experience loops. Provisional patent filed. US LLC (Austin, TX) with Polish subsidiary operating the flagship.

An adaptive system that uses on-device computer vision and reinforcement learning to continuously optimize a physical space. Cameras detect occupancy, activity, and behavioral responses — head-nodding, dwell time, departures — and feed those signals as rewards into the selection engine. The system learns what works for each room, each crowd, each hour. No prior art implements this closed-loop behavioral feedback in shared physical environments.

Vision Module
Person detection, activity classification, gesture recognition, crowd turnover — all on-device
RL Engine
Reward signals from behavioral feedback → per-venue preference profiles that compound over time
Edge / Cloud Hybrid
Time-critical inference on-device (<50ms); demographic + model updates via cloud
QR Companion
Location-gated web interface for explicit feedback — no app install required
Patent
Provisional filed on closed-loop behavioral feedback for ambient environments
Data
Per-room RL profiles accumulate daily — months of optimization a new entrant can't replicate
Integration
Software married to real estate — neither side can replicate alone
Network
Two-sided market flywheel inside the venue
