Presence - Fabricating the Kinetic Sculpture

After prototyping fabricating a prototype of Presence to test the design and physical mechanics, it was time to build the real thing.

Presence - Fabricating the Prototype

Designing the physical structure and building a miniature prototype that proves out the fabrication process and mechanics.

Presence - Physical Design, Bill of Materials and Schematics

Presence - Predicting Gaze in Python with the Eye Tracking for Everyone Neural Network

Presence - Concepts and Play Testing

Conceptualizing designs, and testing the assumptions and user experience.

Presence - Proposal

The proposal for an art installation that is activated the longer and the more people gaze directly at it. It would encourage being present and engaged, and connect the fellow participants with each other over moments of mindfulness. This will be my final project for Intro to Physical Computing and Design for Digital Fabrication.

Weather Diorama

How we built a diorama based on Japanese art that has lights which change the appearance of the scene depend on the time of day or weather.

Light Loop

Creating a light loop that repeats itself

Doubling the Battery Power

Connecting batteries in parallel to double the capacity and keep the same voltage.
