Process Project

Process




Think more about materials needed:
Someone suggested a microphone to detect breath, based on sound
Moisture sensor: measures humidity
CO2 sensor is not so good

Visuals:
LED brightness is affected based on breath

Goggles & Breathing Station

Leaning towards person puts on googles which are embedded with LEDs and a translucent screen between the eyes and the LEDs. Person puts on the goggles and breathes into a specific open box placed in a corner of the room
As the person breathes, the LEDs in the goggles brighten accordingly.

Enables us to still include our idea of fashion through the design of the goggles even though concept has moved in a different direction.

Next task:
- Create a program for the arduino which the pressure of the breath against the flexiforce pressure sensor affects ONE LED. The higher the pressure, the brighter the LED.
- See how that goes, look into other materials that could be used (wind sensor, moisture sensor, microphone)
- Sketch the space which the person breathes into
-Sketch ideas of the goggles
