A method for visual signal processing of a signal includes subdividing a signal, by a signal processor, into a selected number (n) of sets of data. The method also includes assembling the signal, by the signal processor, into an image. The image includes a matrix. The matrix includes a plurality of cells in a predetermined number (m) of columns and the selected number (n) of rows. Each cell of the matrix includes a particular color corresponding to an amplitude of a sample of the signal represented by the cell. The method also includes analyzing the image, by the signal processor, using an image detection algorithm to determine frequency information of the signal.
