We are interested in exploring how people can grow a deeper relationship with others through an object remotely.
Signals: might be messages from texts or emails, movement of footprints, audio
Feedback: We can create the object to possibly include the placebo effect instead always being data-driven or maybe a combination.
2. What if a chair can detect you are falling asleep in class?
We think using a chair that can detect if someone is falling sleep could alert the person or amuse them, kick them out of the classroom to eliminate distraction or blow fresh air.
Signals: slouched posture, lowered heart rate, little motion, neighbor feedback, teacher response
Feedback: This could individually help or collect data for the whole group.
3. What if a table can sense you are feeling overwhelmed at work?
We would want to explore how we could help find a way to relieve stress for a person who is at work and might need emotional support.
Signals: quantity of emails or phone calls, amount of objects on the desk, facial recognition, pressure, heart rate increased
We are leaning are toward Idea #1!
