Software I will need a Software to process the data collected by the microcontroller or the web cam, and consequently to control the animation. I look into this few softwares to check if there were suitable for my needs. Isadora Isadora is a graphic programming environment that provides interactive control over digital media, with [...]
Project Research- Microcontroller
Now that I know what I want to do, I need to to concentrate on what do I need to create this interactive artefact. If I decide to use a sensor of any kind I will need to plug it to a device, which will control and collect data from it. That is called a [...]
Project Research-Sensors
First I need to decide what kind of sensors will be idle for my project When the spectators get close enough to the painting, the animation start. Consequently we need something, which can found out where the spectator is in relation to the screen. This interaction will give the computer the ability to sense [...]
My Project – MONA LISA
We had to introduce our ideas about the next individual project. The audience has chosen my “Mona Lisa” project, Humour and simplicity won the challenge. Simplicity, The art of complexity I do like the thought of having this very serious Madam reacting un-promptly to the visitor. How to realise [...]
Project
The other night I had this idea of hijacking an old painting and created an interaction around it. I especially thought about Mona Lisa, well-known illusion of her eyes following you. My first idea was to use a couple of motors attached to some plastic eyes controlled through a microcontroller such as the Arduino. Some [...]
