After the presentation in class last week we took the constructive critique along with our own brainstorming session, we decided to re-design the look of the chair and the screen. The chair needed more of a personality and cleaner look. Below are some of the designs we came up with and the one we choose as the final look for our screen.

In order to display images on our screen that would connect to the sensors on our chair, we decided to do image searches on Google using the word “awesome” by itself as well as with other key words and terms.

The results for our image search are essential for user interaction. The following are search key words we used as well as Google’s image search results:-
Keywords with “Awesome”:
We also searched for images using just the word “Awesome” on Google and wrote down the phrases that are tagged under the images to see if we can make meaning of any of them:-
Finally these are screen shots of Google’s image search results for words using awesome:-

“a fully autonomous robotic table selects a viewer to attempt a relationship with that person, the table will not interact with everyone who comes into the room; it will choose only one viewer. the artwork and not the viewer is in the position of choice. this focusses the attention of other viewers on one particular visitor, making the person the ‘object’ of attention.”
