So close yet so far
At this point I have no idea whether I’ll have a working prototype ready for Thursday, although it’s not crucial, it would be nice to achieve. I’ve been learning so much about Arduino sketches and processing, yet I still only have a very basic knowledge, and just when I find a solution, along with it comes 10 more questions. Luckily when Google doesn’t have the answer, Karen does (Thank you!). At the moment I’m trying to work out how to get the data recorded by the Arduino to translate to a specific processing sketch. I understand the basics of how to do it thanks to this helpful site https://learn.sparkfun.com/tutorials/connecting-arduino-to-processing but with the complicated processing sketch and various data sets, I’ll need to do a lot more research. Wish me luck! Also, any miracles would be greatly appreciated.
I’m getting really deep into this thing. I now know a bit of Javascript and realise I should have downloaded the developers edition of Firefox a long time ago. Urgh, am I making this more complicated than it has to be? Good thing I have a backup plan which replaces gestures with buttons (low voltage sensors) made from alfoil and stuck onto a pane of glass which is then projection mapped from behind with images of buttons. A la emulator aesthetic (see link) hmmmmm….

Project progress blog- Cracks in the road that is evenly paved.
So far my prototype is functioning normally, as I tested the other night in my study (to the annoyance of my sister). However some technical difficulties emerged when I attached the photo resistor to my sunglasses. When attached, the resistor didn't seem to get much signal when I raised my hand over it, resulting in just a droning, unchanged beep sound. This is probably due to the conductivity of the glasses, which spreads the electric current to unnecessary areas and therefore wastes it. I've narrowed the problem down to two things: 1. the material of the glasses (might have to use a plastic pair instead), or 2. the range of the coded piezo pitch on the arduino script (as shown below). Might have to start playing around with the threshold for now.
I’ve decided that seeing that this is only a prototype, I’ll just leave the board as it is an leave the piezo on. Although I would like to attach a better speaker on (I might see if there is a way I can tomorrow in class), the testing and documentation will mostly be done while my board still has the speaker attached.
Week 8 HCI Class -This week in class we got to build our own low voltage sensor. I found it interesting to see what was conductive and what was not to create a circuit. I used coins and jewellery hooked up to the ends of my alligator clips to play a drum set in an online app. Today I also learnt that plants and water are good conductive materials.
Week 10 HCI Class - This week we were also given a demonstration of a headset which scans the front part of your brain. Its aim was to relay information on an accompanying computer program about a persons attention and meditation levels. You can see on the video the graph changing as Karen’s brain focuses more on meditation or attention.
