instruction: https://wp.nyu.edu/shanghai-ima-interaction-lab/recitation-9-digital-fabrication/ Our task is to make an equipment in which a servo rotates one acrylic plate with the other acrylic plate fixed on the pedestal. We will design two acrylic plates, two pieces of wood and laser cut them. Task1 Measure and Design: I worked with Andy. I read the data of outline of servo and told it to Andy and Andy designed it in cuttle. I also designed one part of the pedestal: Task2 Design the pattern: Now Andy and I need to design a circular pattern seperately to generate an … [Read more...] about Recitation9: Documentation

Research Essay
Project Title: NOWhere to Adventure Prologue: My partner Andy and I are still discussing about our projects' idea and interactive design. Hetherto we have different idea and target for our design. Most of the idea are TBD. Project Statement of Purpose: I still remembered when I visited the IMA final show in 2021 fall and amazed at those fascinating design. I was a freshmen who graduated from high school, finished Gaokao and took three core courses and one CS intro course in the first semester, thinking that CS major might be the only path in my undergraduate study. the IMA final … [Read more...] about Research Essay
Recitation8 Documentation
Instruction: https://wp.nyu.edu/shanghai-ima-interaction-lab/recitation-8-serial-communication-2/ The recitation asked us to make two design which required commnucation between Arduino and Processing using Serial. The first project asked us to use two potentiometers' value to draw picture on Processing. I built the circuit and wrote the Arduino code which can get value of potentiometers and send the value in serial using serialrecord library and tested: #include "SerialRecord.h" SerialRecord writer(2); void setup() { // put your setup code here, to run once: … [Read more...] about Recitation8 Documentation
THREE PROJECT PROPOSALS
I developed three topics for my final project, which are reality improvement, grid game, and class content development. Reality Improvement: Title: Auto-PCR Test Machine Andy and I came up with this idea when we are brainstorming our midterm project. We thought that it required more skills so we postponed it to our final. The idea is to simulate the repeaded and uncomfortable labour of testing using machanism. I designed to use Arduino for machanism and Processing animation for instructions. The difficult part is to put every step into a loop. The difficulty waiting to be solve is how … [Read more...] about THREE PROJECT PROPOSALS
Recitation7: Documentation
Instruction : https://wp.nyu.edu/shanghai-ima-interaction-lab/recitation-7-neopixel-music-visualizer/ I built the circuit just as what we did in the lecture and My led could not blink after the sample code uploaded. I asked an LA and it worked. Then I downloaded the SerialRecord liberary and the Arduino Sample code. After reading the code and the instruction, I understood that the board will receive four parameters from the Serial and change the LED's state accordingly. So I can change the LED if I input the data correctly in Serial. Then I downloaded the SerialRecorder … [Read more...] about Recitation7: Documentation
PREPARATORY RESEARCH AND ANALYSIS
In his ariticle Art Interaction and Engage, artist Ernest Edmends first categorized artworks into four: "Static", "Dynamic Passive", "Dynamic Interactive", and "Dynamic Interactive(Varying)" to differentiate the relationships between the influence artworks' inner machanism and user input cast on the art effect. The last two categories are about human engaging, which I focus on. For "Dynamic Interactive", the design will respond the same if the input of user is same, while for "dynamic interactive(varying)", the design will respond differently according to environment elements like temperature … [Read more...] about PREPARATORY RESEARCH AND ANALYSIS
