Mini Project 1 - Madeline Morales, 10/12/15



You put your hand over the thing and it does things--thanks.

That's fun! I was able to get all three colors going. Would have liked to have seen the sensor and output applied in some sort of context outside of its function. -Aaron

I sat down and the signal turned green, that was cool to see, then i leaned forward and it turned blue, then I started playing with it and realized that its a proximity sensor, Cool!

Maria - The proximity sensor works! Would be interesting to see effects (fading?) or weird sounds to go along with it.

Erica-- Looks really cool and works well. but I wish there was more of an aesthetic purpose. I want to see this idea pushed further. Think about how you can force a viewer to interact with it, or how this sensor could act in an unusual way.

kris- very fun! I liked that it could turn more than two colors! Some sound added would make it interesting as well.

ivette- i really like the surprise affect it had on me when i didn't expect it to change color. I like coming up to something like this and not knowing what it does and then BAM! it changes color. what kind of sensor is this? I like exploring the way that it works. I think next time you could have a lot more LEDs!

Shimul - I love this! It's so sensitive to motion, which I actually like because it lets you be more active when interacting with it. I do agree with Maria though, I'd like to see some fading. Or maybe also some reason for why a certain proximity or movement causes a specific color.

Jen- This is so cool! You really got the IR sensor working well! The threshold for color change seems very clear and the light doesn't look super confused at any point. I agree with Ivette, this would be cool if there were more lights! But for it's simple purpose it works very well! I think it might also be cool to have the colors correlate conceptually to the distance of the viewer.. So for example, what can the color green connote about the viewer being so close?

Good job in getting the seƱsor to work. I am curious about the red being the default color for when the had is out of range of the sensor. Is that a warning  of some sort? IS there a significance to blue being the color that is displayed when a hand is close? IT is almost opposite of what one would expect. Katerie

This was really cool it got me to question what sensor I wanted to use for my final project. I had no idea this sensor existed or that it could be used as a proximity sensor. INCORPORATING SOUND WOULD BE AMAZING!!

Great, You gave me other direction to investigate other proximity sensor. And how one LED can change with two colors with different  proximity, I was thinking if  it has time to see the different coors together:) Setareh

Tatyana- I really like motion and color mixed together, so kudos on this right here. It's very efficient in technique and execution.

Kelsey- What is that sensor you used? Ive never seen it before and it works differently than an IR proximity sensor. I feel like its more accurate. If you had more of an aesthetic purpose to this, it could be really beautiful. I like moving my hand really fast and making a stop light out of it :D
Dreezy and I are having fun with it.


Dreezy- This is my favorite!!! If you use this on a larger scale and incorporate a concept and it will be incredible! Nice work. I like interacting with the piece, so maybe changing the position so that you can interact with it more.

I like the fact that its a 360 degrees sensor; the sensitivity of the sensor works well for this piece. I also like the rapid color change of the light. I like the fact that it's hard to tell what type of movement creates which specific color. It would be interesting to have another LED with their own sensors that create different colors in response to one moving target -Kayla
