ARCS (Augmented Reality Circuit Sniffer) is a reactive Augmented Reality sound device exploring the invisible electromagnetic fields that are emitted by the mass of electronic devices that surround us. The work invites participants to scan a range of devices using a smartphone app and custom handheld sensor that both visualises and sonifies these emanating electromagnetic waves in a real-time AR experience.
