Spatial Audio with LiveKit

This is a demo of spatial audio using LiveKit. Users join a little 2D world, and hear other users' audio in stereo, based on their position and distance relative to you.

Online demo

You can try an online demo right now at https://spatial-audio-demo.livekit.io/.

Running locally

Clone the repo and install dependencies:

git clone [email protected]:livekit-examples/spatial-audio.git
cd spatial-audio
npm install

Create a new LiveKit project at http://cloud.livekit.io. Then create a new key in your project settings.

Create a new file at spatial-audio/.env.development and add your new API key and secret as well as your project's WebSocket URL (found at the top of http://cloud.livekit.io):

LIVEKIT_API_KEY=<your api key>
LIVEKIT_API_SECRET=<your api secret>
LIVEKIT_WS_URL=wss://<your-project>.livekit.cloud

(Note: this file is in .gitignore. Never commit your API secret to git.)

Then run the development server:

npm run dev

You can test it by opening http://localhost:3000 in a browser.
