Cinematic workout studio This is a projected stick-practice game that allows people who practice martial arts, to not hurt themselves during exercise. However I also wonder the mechanism of this work: how can it be so fluent? How can this be such an immersive environment(it seems to have projection all over the room, not just… Read more Final proposal draft
B. Projects that inspire; why they are successful and how they inform my idea The interactive stair: Interactivity “Our final product is an array of Do-It-Yourself pressure sensors that can measure how much force is placed on them as someone takes a step. This array is placed on the floor for demonstration purposes, but it… Read more Final project: Preparatory Research and Analysis
Wendy & Sarah Process documentation We first come up with an idea. Since Arduino is basically an environment that transforms in-between inputs and outputs, in the form of lights/sounds, we decide to make something LEDed. Here is the car prototype we made with scrap cardboard. We made it a base and planned to tie LED… Read more Midterm Post-Mortem
Recitation 5: Processing Basics Recitation Exercise For today’s exercise, you will be working alone to draw an image in Processing based on any image that inspires you. Step 1: Choose an image to be your motif I thought of making Minecraft avatars because they are initially pixel characters. I’m picking orange as the background color… Read more Recitation 5: Processing Basics &Documentation by Wendy S
Recitation 2: Arduino Basics Meet Arduino, and start basic coding! By Wendy In this recitation, I made 3 circuits with Arduino. Fade, toneMelody, and a little 2-player game. Arduino Basics Circuit 1: Fade Circuit 2: Tone Melody- Play a Melody using the tone() function Circuit 3: Speed Game: Race the Led The schematic: https://www.tinkercad.com/things/6MzvN5rlZlr… Read more Recitation 2: Arduino Basics &Documentation by Wendy S
Recitation 1: Electronics & Soldering Friday, September 16, 2020 by Wendy Shi Goal: get familiar with lab rules, tools; practice building circuits. Understand interactivity from hands-on experience. Soldering Soldering is a joining process used to join different types of metals together by melting solder. Solder is a metal alloy usually made of tin and lead which is… Read more Recitation 1: Electronics & Soldering &Documentation by Wendy S
It is easier to be an inventor in an imaginary setting. Here are some inspirations from the 3 fiction readings: In Folding Beijing, there are 2 devices caught my attention:The elevated auto-sorting system in apartment buildings in Second Space; And the automobile in First Space. In Newton’s Sleep, I found this particularly interesting: A device… Read more Inventions in immersing realities
We talk about interactivity all the time. In stage art, popularity of a performance is measured by how much percent of the show are designed to realize through a collaboration with the audience, or unintentionally arouse their response; in sale promotions, a good salesperson knows exactly how to target at the customer’s desire, thus encouraging… Read more What Exactly is Interactivity?
