Abstract
A system configured to generate dynamic visual feedback by synchronizing smart lights with a rhythm and energy levels of music being output. A device may translate audio samples to luma (brightness), chroma (color), and location data using a low-latency algorithm. For example, the device may divide the full band audio data into separate frequency bands based on the number of output devices and control a brightness for an output device by tracking energy within a corresponding frequency band. The color and location may be controlled based on a number of beats per minute, direction, and/or the like. In addition to controlling external lighting via a smart home hub, the device can control LED light(s) on the device via an LED controller. To further reduce latency, the device can directly communicate between an audio processor, the smart home hub, and/or the LED controller using low level hardware abstraction layers (HALs).
