Module 1

Activity Research

Experimenting and getting to know more about the arduino through activities

Activity 1

Blinking light test run and getting familliar with the arduino uno Arduino connected to a bread board Temperature and humidity system board Example code for temperature and humidity Protopie connect arduino plugin options

Activity 2

Setting up installments for the arduino sensor kit running the arduino and get console response Dial test functional but humidity and temperature was not responsive Got humidity and temperature to work Console log in protopie connect plugin

Activity 3

Learning how to connect the arduino to touch designer Learning how to connect one box to the other Exploring gradients and effects on to the ball as instructed on the tutorial document Testing out the final product from the premade zip file Changing the sphere's size by toggling the dial on the arduino

Research Activity

Consumer Trend Research

Researched tech trends revolving around physical devices interacting with the digital world.

Article on responsive toys with circuits for the future generation New apple product prediction of a device that responds and pans screen to speaker Overall explanation of the two categories based on the trend articles

Personas Research

Personas created based on the trend articles.

Persona for category 1 persona for category 2 Persona section from the research worksheet

HMI Research

HMI statement development to focus on the topic.

HMI statement for the first category HMI statement for the second category HMI section from the research worksheet

Project Path

Deciding to take either the design or art path with project concept research.

Art path rough concept, an interactive projection game Design path rough concept, motion tracking phone stand to follow movement path section from the research worksheet

Project 1 Concept

Project 1 Concept

I have chosen to go down the art path and do something along the lines of a interactive projection that responds to movement and real life objects. Currently considering to collaborate with other classmates who have similar concepts which means this concept might not be pursued.

A projected game that interacts with real objects and a cxharacter controlled by users to move and make use of its environments
