Sensory foundation
Translates intensity, rhythm and frequency into a clear visual wave and optional vibration.
The sail that translates the sound of the sea into accessible sensory language.
SONIA
SONIA is an accessible conceptual sail that turns the sound and movement of the sea into visual and haptic signals. It brings the ocean experience closer to Deaf people through a respectful, educational and lightweight sensory interpretation.
The sea can be heard, but it can also be felt. SONIA explores how vibrations, wave rhythm and wind can become light patterns, visual waves and optional haptic pulses.
Educational value
Supports inclusive activities on biodiversity, pollution and sailing.
Institutional value
Treats accessibility as structural to sustainability, not an afterthought.
Conceptual definition
An interface between sea, material and perception that turns environmental data into a shared experience.
SENSORY TRANSLATION
Activate the microphone only if you want to turn ambient sound into a visual wave. Nothing is recorded or sent.
