Techniques for analyzing connectivity within an audio transducer array

A computer-implemented method for analyzing connectivity within a sound system, comprising:

• applying a baseline signal to a plurality of amplifiers coupled to a transducer array comprising a plurality of transducers, wherein each transducer in the transducer array is coupled to a different optical emitter that produces a light signal in response to the baseline signal;
• capturing a baseline image that indicates a different location associated with each transducer in the transducer array based on respective light signals produced by each optical emitter coupled to each transducer in the transducer array;
• generating a three dimensional model of locations of the plurality of transducers from the baseline image;
• applying a first signal to a first amplifier in the plurality of amplifiers;
• capturing a first image that indicates a first transducer in the transducer array;
• determining that the first amplifier drives the first transducer;
• comparing the baseline image to the first image to determine a location of the first transducer within the three dimensional model of locations of the plurality of transducers;
• and
• generating connectivity data that indicates that the first amplifier is coupled to the first transducer.
