Fusion Lab created UFaudiO, a sculptural Bluetooth speaker that makes audio visible in hypnotic motion. UFaudiO uses ferrofluid, a viscous liquid infused with nanoscale magnetic particles, to create a visual experience that matches sonic intensity. The speaker features a 2.1-channel setup with two full-range drivers and a down-firing subwoofer, supporting Bluetooth 5.1 and AUX input. The ferrofluid responds to electromagnetic fields, forming rippling peaks and sharp ridges in rhythm with the sound. The speaker is encased in CNC-machined anodized aluminum and perched on solid maple wood feet, offering a subtle acoustic benefit and a warm, organic contrast. The underlying effect is powered by the Rosensweig instability, a phenomenon where ferrofluid creates spikes and ridges in response to magnetic fields. UFaudiO is designed to create emotional, multisensory interactions through tech, and is suitable for homes, cafés, studios, and galleries.
