Improvement: <\/strong>Taking into account the feedback we got from our faculty we decided to implement and have a proof of concept to test whether what we are thinking is possible. We plan to keep continuing in this direction with both our playtesting and prototyping efforts so we can deliver an apt product for the Kenner room! <\/p>\n\n\n\n This week our process was divided into two parts. The first part is playtesting which includes testing user experience with our interactive mechanism of polling. The second part focused on prototyping and presenting our client a possible implementation of both the content and technology options and the possible budget for each option. <\/p>\n\n\n\n This week we made progress on the tech side and came up with up to 5 options for projection on the Kenner room wall and how much they will cost. We also had a prototype on the glass and film structure for testing projection which we built in our project room and Ningshan built a unity test project to test the light and touch sensors and their functionality on the glass piece shown below. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Ruchi set up the glass and procure the sensors and hardware for testing and set up the projector for the prototype. Following our Friday meeting our Client confirmed we could go forward with using a rear projection film and phidgets as the tech for our project! <\/p>\n\n\n\n Lu & Annie made progress on the content front and presented ideas which involved abstraction and languages as it\u2019s key element. Our options included examples of shape and color and words. As the client had shown interest in the template idea, allowing him and his students to create content for our product we decided to come up with the following templates for which different contents can be created keeping in mind the upcoming events, occasions and meetings the room hosts. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Challenges this week revolved around finding possible content and technical options while taking into account all the limitations of the room and the client\u2019s request to have an abstract and non linear aesthetic to the content we create for the installation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n We are in the process of working on the above challenge and create content that speaks of language and culture in a subtle yet impactful format. Technically our next step would be to test our prototype in the room itself in the coming week. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Next week we plan to continue with our prototype and playtesting efforts from this week and keep getting better and better in gauging what will attract CMU students to interact with our projection wall. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" (By Ruchi Hendre\/02142020) Presentations & Critique: We finished our quarter presentations last week and gathered feedback from all the ETC Faculty regarding our problem statement.
