Today we collected all the materials we needed for the installation, so I finally was able to start building. Since one picture can say more than a thousand words, so here are a lot of pictures :p This was the first time I took so much time to design, improve and recalculate on a project….
User testing preparation
What to test on: Interaction: Is the interaction smooth and intuitive? Experience: How do users react to the installation? Is their experience valuable? usefulness: Does the installation benefit the user? Goals: Does interaction with the installation help to reach our goals? Data collection: How are we able to extract useful information from the installation? Interaction:…
A second sponser!
To make the installation a bit more appealing we will need to paint it, and if you are going to paint something you need paint. Luckily i work for a creative entrepreneur and at our workshop we have a lot of spray paint. I asked my boss (Egbert) if he was interested in sponsoring sering…
Working on the database
i have bin working on the database for the last couple of days and it almost works, but i’m having some problems with updating the database. I can’t figure out how to get te changed data/ values back in the database. I asked some other students who are also working with the same database, but…
User testing results

Mark also encouraged us to make work out our concept a bit more to make it well rounded. The customer journey and media should…
Research On Places
Further research on all the fifteen places. To give people a better sense of location and to allow myself to design for a place, I research each place and wrote a small paragraph on each one which I later used on the website. I researched by going to the location with Jan, when we where…

Everyone has been working extremely hard, and with excellent focus on the final product. 3d models, LED lights, construction drawings are all being finalized, we…
Database
The last few days i have bin working on the database, or how we can use it. Through a tip from Boris i checked out Firebase. It is a database that works through Google. Whit Firebase you can create a collection. In this collection you can make multiple id’s. These id’s can have multiple ‘fields/…
Technical Progress
During sprint 3 I mainly focussed on getting the sensors and LEDs to work. Getting the sensors to work took a while but it works fine now. Like I said in previous post we are able to make 16 states with 4 LDRs. First I needed to be able to read the values of the…
