As computing becomes more ubiquitous in our objects, designers need to be more aware of how to design meaningful interactions into electronically enhanced objects. At the University of Washington, a class of junior Interaction Design majors is exploring this question. These pages chronicle their efforts.

Lum: An arduino-powered smoke detector


https://vimeo.com/97977007

 Lum is a Arduino-powered smoke detector that combines motion, light and smoke inputs to improve alerts and make sure they only happen when you want them to. With Lum, we emphasized visual alerts using Neopixel LED’s and sound through a speaker and the tone library. If there is a false alarm, the PIR motion detector will silence the alarms with the wave of a hand.  Given a light threshold, Lum acts as an ambient light. Lum is a smoke detector for everyone.
