Impulse lets someone treating a room see where sound hits their walls, so they know exactly where each acoustic panel goes. Existing tools such as measurement software and phone reverb apps tell you how bad a room is. The usual way to find where is the “mirror trick”, which takes two people and a hand mirror. An indoors, a wave at the real speed of sound crosses a 5 m room in about 15 ms, far too fast to see. The geometry stays true-scale, but playback has to be slowed roughly 200× with a time scrubber.
The core loop Mark: pinch to place your speaker (or two) and your listening seat. Map: look around the room; the Lens finds the walls, floor and ceiling and snaps them into a clean room outline. Fire: clap, or tap a button. A slowed wavefront leaves the speaker and bounces around the room. Read: each first-reflection point is pinned to its surface as a true-size panel outline (60 × 120 cm), ranked by how early and how loud that reflection reaches your seat. Treat: drop virtual panels on the outlines, fire again, and compare before and after. A summary card lists what to buy and where it goes.
