Pretty Lights
Custom WatchOS Biometric Application
Providing the technology to support real-time processing and visualization of heart rate data collected from the band members, crew and audience.
Our
Collaboration
In late summer 2023, we began our collaboration with the iconic American music project Pretty Lights on their Soundship Spacesystem tour.
Over the course of approximately 5 months we developed, tested and supported a range of specialized Apple WatchOS heart rate applications. In addition, we designed and built the necessary infrastructure for efficient data communication and integration. The main goal was to gather real-time heart rate data from the band, crew and audience participants and relay this data to the Pretty Lights team to incorporate into various visual aspects of the performance. This effort reached its peak at the tour's final shows (December 1-3, 2023) in New Orleans, where we launched and supported an innovative crowd application. This event was a milestone: it was the first time heart rate data, from both in-person and online audiences, was used in the visual graphics of a major music event, introducing a new method of engagement.
