What we are trying to do

The Fourier transform has been the dominant framework for signal analysis since 1822. It is extraordinarily powerful. But it answers one specific question: which frequencies are present? There are other questions — about waveform shape, cycle-to-cycle variation, timbre evolution — that Fourier is not designed to answer.

We are not trying to replace Fourier. We are trying to add a new lens. Cyclograms provide a complementary view of a signal that reveals structure invisible to spectral approaches. We believe that has value in audio, medicine, engineering, and anywhere else periodic signals carry information.

Sunics is open research. We publish what we find, share what we build, and welcome collaboration with anyone who wants to explore this space.
