Project: design an interactive space that changes its state based on the people in it
Purpose: to be implemented in a store in order to effect mood of customers
How it works:
-floor tiles contain sensors which determine whether or not a person is standing on the tile
-the number of tiles being stepped on at any given time affects the color of the walls (which are video screens)
Effect:
-a cooler, dimmer color displayed when there are many people in the space has a calming effect
-a warmer, brighter color displayed when there are many people in the space has an energizing effect
Sketch of prototype for sensor tile:
Tools Used:
-Arduino
-Processing
Additional ideas:
-noise sensors which affect the volume of the music being played in the space (i.e. high noise level causes music volume to decrease)
