Match Maker – Chaoyue Yuan – Professor Rudi Context and Significance My midterm project is similar to the previous group project in a way that helps to emphasize my understanding of interaction. Both projects require the audience to create an input that will produce an output. The last group project we focused on how … Continue reading Match Maker – Chaoyue Yuan – Professor Rudi
Recitation 4: Actuators and Mechanisms For this recitation, my partner was Calvin. To separate tasks and work more efficiently, Calvin did the coding and wiring while I cut the cardboard and put together our mechanism. This was very efficient because when he was done plugging the wires and inserting the code, I finished cutting the … Continue reading Recitation 4: Actuators and Mechanisms
Personal ATM – Chaoyue Yuan – Professor Rudi My idea is a personal ATM machine. This ATM will include sensors that can could the bills you insert based on each slot you insert it in. There will also be a motor that spins to open the door on the bottom to allow you to withdraw … Continue reading Personal ATM – Chaoyue Yuan – Professor Rudi
Group Research Project During our first meeting for this project, we looked at each of our assignments on fictional stories, but all of our ideas were fictional and couldn’t exist in reality. I originally came up with the idea to make a cleaning machine; however, we came to the conclusion that this was not interactive … Continue reading Group Research Project
Recitation 3: Workout 1.) 2.) CODE: int SENSOR_PIN = 2; int tiltVal; int prevTiltVal; int count; void setup() { pinMode(SENSOR_PIN, INPUT); // Set sensor pin as an INPUT pin Serial.begin(9600); } void loop() { // read the state of the sensor tiltVal = digitalRead(SENSOR_PIN); // if the tilt sensor value changed, print the new … Continue reading Recitation 3: Workout
Recitation 2: Arduino Basics Circuit 1: Fade This circuit allow this LED to fade on anf off at differnt speeds and brightnesses. In this step, I used 2 wires, a 220 ohm resistor, and a LED. The red wire is connected to -9, declared in the code, which is connected to one side of the … Continue reading Recitation 2: Arduino Basics
The Veldt: The Resource Pack For the changing environment of this fictional story, I think it would be beneficial to have a resource pack that is available to anyone that is in the virtual room or anyone that can be affected by it. Any scenario that can be displayed on the virtual reality room should … Continue reading Group Research Project: Read
My Definition of Interaction: After reading “Making Interactive Art: Set the Stage, Then Shut Up and Listen” by Tigoe, I believe interaction is the artist creating a piece of work that the audience can use or interact with to express their thoughts and ideas. The artist and the audience are 50/50. One creates and the … Continue reading Group Research Project
RECITATION 1: Electronics and Soldering In my first recitation project, I experimented with building circuits and soldering. Both are activities that I have never done before, so the following information will be my first experience with them. Task 1: Build the Circuits Step 1: When I was given all of the materials, I had no … Continue reading My First Interaction Lab Activity
