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.

Zihan Cheng's Motion and Sound detection












Movement & Sound

Using the build-in Microphone and Webcam from Macbook, I created a Motion and Volume detection.
Volume changes the Waveform and Motion changes the size of the points.
My Creation: Waveform, Combining three functions into one. 
Credit: Motion Sensor: Daniel Shiffman.

Processes: 










Motion: recording video through webcam. a frame can be sliced into pixels. One pixel only has one color. Groups the pixels on previous frame and the currant frame into two array of color. and compare two groups all the time. Use RGB number as units to measure how much did they changed in total. Then calculate the average. 

Wave: parametric functions. sin( t /1), x changes the fluctuation. R changes the size. 
Created Object Point.
