Waves sniffer
Stereo converter of electromagnetic fields in sound
A new way of listening the world We live in a world full of electronics, yet there is one thing for most of which we are unaware of. All the electrical equipment you have, including the device you're reading, has a magnetic field. Simply put, where there is electricity, there is magnetism, but in spite of everything, we have no real way of detecting these magnetic fields, until now! With this project you can listen to all the low frequency magnetic fields emitted by your electronic devices ..
