TEAM KAAS - FINAL PROTOTYPE 9
INSPIRATION:
The inspiration for our project came as a video about socially awkward small public spaces, like an elevator. Here is the link to the video that we found both amusing and very truthful, as elevators are usually great examples of places where people avoid interactions:
IDEA:Our final prototype represents a tile, that can be assembled into a larger installation or used by itself. Each tile is subdivided into smaller squares (in our case), or any other shapes. A microphone is built in into each subdivided piece and a simple LED circuit. When the microphone closest to the noise object detects the noise, the LED, associated with this microphone begins to react. The overall effect is an illusion, that an individual tile is associated with a particular person being at the moment in the elevator.
