Welcome to the official GitHub organization for SoundFood — where innovation meets high-end dining.

SoundFood is a forward-thinking company that blends cutting-edge generative AI with cross-modal perception science to create fully immersive sensory experiences in fine-dining environments. Our patented “phygital” music-sommelier technology gives every table a bespoke audio bubble that perfectly complements the flavors of each dish.

At the heart of SoundFood is the Smart Lamp — a connected table-side device that turns a tasting menu into a synchronized audio-visual journey:

• Course-synced “sound bubbles” — as each dish is served, the lamp plays a soundtrack tailored to that course, designed to enhance its flavors and texture.
• AI-composed music — tracks are generated and curated with generative AI so the pairing for every dish is original and intentional.
• Restaurateur-friendly control — staff build menus, attach soundtracks, and run a live dining session from a simple on-device web interface, no technical skill required.
• Built for the room, not the lab — the device is engineered to run reliably on restaurant hardware and networks, online or off.

SoundFood is an end-to-end system spanning the table and the cloud:

• On-device experience — a self-contained application that drives the menu, playback, and live synchronization on each lamp.
• Custom device OS — a purpose-built Raspberry Pi OS image with safe over-the-air (OTA) updates, so the entire fleet improves without a site visit.
• Cloud platform — a fleet-management backend that handles device provisioning, music-catalog distribution, configuration, health telemetry, and staged update rollouts across every venue.
• Secure by design — devices and cloud communicate over authenticated, signed channels, with trust-on-first-use provisioning for each new lamp.

We bring scientific rigor and cutting-edge tech to elevate restaurant experiences:

• Creating immersive “sound bubbles” tailored to each table and dish
• Collaborating with international research centers to fuse neuroscience and culinary art
• Protecting our cross-modal innovations with patented technology
• Awarded top honors in the Lazio Innova “Boost Your Ideas” program

Our software ecosystem evolves continuously. Repositories range from production-ready components to active research and experiments — reflecting an R&D-oriented workflow where prototypes and field-tested products live side by side. Each repository is self-contained and documented internally; when in doubt about a component’s status, the repo’s own docs are the source of truth.
