My initial ambition was to create a responsive fabric material woven out of conductive rubber cord, a flexible material changes resistance when stretched. So everything would be more honest, and we would be interacting with the material itself. But that didn’t happen because I couldn’t get the material to work stable enough. So it ended up being waving to a proximity sensor again, but it was fun trying:D<\/p>\n
Evrim \u015eahin, my beloved physical computing instructor from bachelors, was mentoring and helping me figure out things along the way.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space empty_h=”1″][vc_column_text]2015 | Self Initiated | 8 weeks on free time<\/strong>[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space empty_h=”2″][vc_icon icon=”fa fa-bookmark” heading_semantic=”h6″ text_size=”fontsize-160000″ text_reduced=”yes”]Designboom LED Life, Finalist<\/strong>[\/vc_icon][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/4″][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row row_height_percent=”0″ overlay_alpha=”50″ equal_height=”yes” gutter_size=”3″ column_width_percent=”100″ shift_y=”0″ z_index=”0″][vc_column column_width_percent=”100″ position_horizontal=”left” align_horizontal=”align_center” gutter_size=”0″ overlay_alpha=”50″ shift_x=”0″ shift_y=”0″ shift_y_down=”0″ z_index=”0″ medium_width=”0″ mobile_width=”0″ width=”1\/4″][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image media=”66440″ media_width_percent=”100″][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/4″][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row row_height_percent=”0″ override_padding=”yes” h_padding=”7″ top_padding=”2″ bottom_padding=”2″ overlay_alpha=”50″ equal_height=”yes” gutter_size=”1″ column_width_percent=”100″ shift_y=”0″ z_index=”0″][vc_column column_width_percent=”100″ position_horizontal=”left” align_horizontal=”align_center” gutter_size=”2″ overlay_alpha=”50″ shift_x=”0″ shift_y=”0″ shift_y_down=”0″ z_index=”0″ medium_width=”0″ mobile_width=”0″ width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image media=”66699″ media_width_percent=”100″][vc_column_text]Each surface corresponding to one of the red, green and blue channels[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column column_width_percent=”100″ align_horizontal=”align_center” gutter_size=”2″ overlay_alpha=”50″ shift_x=”0″ shift_y=”0″ shift_y_down=”0″ z_index=”0″ medium_width=”0″ mobile_width=”0″ width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image media=”66698″ media_width_percent=”100″][vc_column_text]Mixing up and creating different hues for the light[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row row_height_percent=”0″ override_padding=”yes” h_padding=”2″ top_padding=”1″ bottom_padding=”2″ overlay_alpha=”50″ equal_height=”yes” gutter_size=”1″ column_width_percent=”100″ shift_y=”0″ z_index=”0″][vc_column column_width_percent=”100″ position_horizontal=”left” align_horizontal=”align_center” gutter_size=”0″ overlay_alpha=”50″ shift_x=”0″ shift_y=”0″ shift_y_down=”0″ z_index=”0″ medium_width=”0″ mobile_width=”0″ width=”1\/4″][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/4″][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row row_height_percent=”0″ override_padding=”yes” h_padding=”2″ top_padding=”2″ bottom_padding=”2″ overlay_alpha=”50″ equal_height=”yes” gutter_size=”1″ column_width_percent=”100″ shift_y=”0″ z_index=”0″][vc_column column_width_percent=”100″ position_horizontal=”left” align_horizontal=”align_center” gutter_size=”1″ overlay_alpha=”50″ shift_x=”0″ shift_y=”0″ shift_y_down=”0″ z_index=”0″ medium_width=”0″ mobile_width=”0″ width=”1\/1″][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/1″][vc_single_image media=”66649″ media_width_percent=”100″][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner row_inner_height_percent=”0″ overlay_alpha=”50″ gutter_size=”1″ shift_y=”0″ z_index=”0″][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image media=”66647″ media_width_percent=”100″][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image media=”66645″ media_width_percent=”100″][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/4″][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_empty_space empty_h=”0″][vc_column_text]It was a lot of trial and error in the process.
