Systems, apparatuses, and methods are directed toward audio and visual mapping. A visual frame associated with an environment may be received. The visual frame may be segmented into a plurality of regions of interest. A first position for a first region of the plurality of regions of interest is determined. A determination may be made that the first position intersects with a projected area associated with a user. The projected area is to include one or more areas that are outside of a current direction of movement of the user. One or more characteristics of a first auditory stimulus are selected based on the first position and the determination that the first position is within the projected area.
