Project: design an interactive space that changes its state based on the people in it

Purpose: to be implemented in a store in order to effect mood of customers

How it works:

-floor tiles contain sensors which determine whether or not a person is standing on the tile

-the number of tiles being stepped on at any given time affects the color of the walls (which are video screens)

Effect:

-a cooler, dimmer color displayed when there are many people in the space has a calming effect

-a warmer, brighter color displayed when there are many people in the space has an energizing effect

Sketch of prototype for sensor tile:

Tools Used:

-Arduino

-Processing

Additional ideas:

-noise sensors which affect the volume of the music being played in the space (i.e. high noise level causes music volume to decrease)
