Singapore’s event market places increasing emphasis on audience engagement, crowd participation, and experiences that can instantly capture attention in high-footfall environments. Whether it’s a mall atrium activation, a youth event, a corporate family day, or a festive celebration, organisers are seeking activities that are intuitive, energetic, and capable of generating strong visual and social impact.

The Sound Surge, developed by NXT Interactive, is purpose-built for these requirements. It is a sound-reactive digital installation where participants produce sound—such as cheering, speaking, clapping, or controlled shouting—to trigger corresponding visual effects on a large screen. The louder or more sustained the sound, the greater the digital response.

Designed for rapid engagement and high spectator visibility, The Sound Surge is one of the most effective tools for creating energy and drawing crowds in Singapore’s vibrant event spaces.

What The Sound Surge Is

The Sound Surge is a sound-detection experience that converts audio input into digital movement, progress indicators, or animated effects. It functions as a short, high-energy challenge suitable for participants of all ages.

Typical outputs include:

• Energy bars filling in real time

• Objects inflating or moving

• Visual “power-up” sequences

• Branded animations

• Score or ranking displays

Its structure allows it to operate as a standalone installation, a stage-led activity, or an integrated component of a broader campaign.

How The Sound Surge Works

The system uses a streamlined technology pipeline:

1. Audio Input Capture

A calibrated microphone records live sound intensity and frequency.

2. Audio Analysis Algorithm

The software evaluates decibel levels and maps them to predefined interactive thresholds.

3. Visual Output System

The display generates animations in sync with user-generated sound, creating an immediate cause-and-effect experience.

4. Competitive or Collaborative Modes

Organisers can choose between individual challenges, team-based rounds, or audience-wide segments.

5. Onsite Deployment Footprint

The system requires a compact technical setup, making it suitable for mall atriums, expo booths, and stage areas.

Why The Sound Surge Works Well in Singapore

1. Strong Fit for Public Participation Events

Singapore’s crowds respond well to activities that are universally understandable. Sound-based challenges remove barriers related to language, age, or familiarity with technology.

2. Attractive to Spectators

The visual reactions and energetic environment naturally draw attention, making the installation an effective “crowd anchor.”

3. Highly Suitable for Malls & Festivals

Events at venues like Jewel Changi, Marina Bay Sands, Suntec City, and ION Orchard benefit from experiences that create movement and encourage audience engagement.

4. Works Across Corporate and Lifestyle Segments

The Sound Surge can be customized for:

• Employee engagement events

• Retail campaigns

• Brand reveals

• Community celebrations

• Youth and school events

5. Operational Efficiency

Each session lasts 10–20 seconds, enabling high throughput without operational bottlenecks.

Brand and Campaign Integration

The installation offers multiple branding opportunities:

• Branded energy meters

• Product-themed power-ups

• Corporate colour palettes integrated into the visual output

• Prize-based enhancements for top scoring participants

• Logo integration on standby screens, animations, and results sequences

This makes The Sound Surge well-suited for marketing-led activations where visibility and participation are key objectives.

• Corporate family days
