Description
Sensors and Actors are ubiquitous in mobile computers, smart phones and everyday electronics. A smart phone knows if it's upside down, detects the brightness of its surrounding - and also knows whether it rests in a calm environment or is carried by its owner. Touch sensitive surfaces, be it on screen or a dedicated touch pad recognizing gestures - unthinkable they'd not exist. Interaction today means the use of many sensory channels: blinking, buzzing, vibrating, playing melodies or even talking. Among popular technologies less well known sensors are explored or invented in experiments and later used in small devices which are exhibited at the end of the course.
The course is meant as an addition to the project Interaction and Experimental Interfaces - 30 cm³ with Prof. Geelhaar. Attendance without participation in the project can be discussed in a consultation in advance.
German description
Sensoren und Aktoren zur Interaktion sind allgegenwärtig in moderener Elektronik wie Computern und Telefonen. Ein Smartphone weiß, wann es auf dem Kopf steht, wie hell es ist, und ob sein Besizter es in Ruhe liegen lässt oder mit sich herumträgt. Berührungsempfindliche Oberflächen als Touchscreen oder zur Eingabe von Gesten sind längst nicht mehr wegzudenken. Zur Kommunikation mit einem Menschen werden alle möglichen Sinneskanäle genutzt - es piepst, musiziert, brummt und vibriert. Neben populären Technologien werden auch weniger verbreitete Sensoren experimentell kennengelernt oder erfunden und deren Potential als Interaktionsmedium erkundet.
In Schaltungen, die im Laufe des Semesters entstehen, lernen die Teinehmer das interaktive Potential verschiedener Sensoren kennen, nehmen auseinander, stellen neu zusammen und lassen hör-, fühl- und sichtbares entstehen.
Das Modul wird begleitend zum Master-Projektmodul Interaction and Experimental Interfaces - 30 cm³ von Prof. Geelhaar angeboten - eine separate Teilnahme ist nach Rücksprache ebenfalls möglich.
