4 different color-lamps are set in the box beneath, one combination is yellow & green, another combination is red & blue.
Both of 2 combinations will be lights-on one after another.
This trigger light movement will be linked to LED lights HIGH and LOW on the fan, and motor rotation which is shafted on the center in the box, also sound which is assigned PWM from PIC.
Every movement is controlled by motion sensor, which is going to be some interaction by the people passing near by this.
Put your hand closer to the motion sensor,
the lights-on & off beneath in the box, motor rotation (infinity fan movement), LED lights on the fan, can be seen, and sound can be heard.
This gives an artificial mechanical interaction moment for the public in the hallway.

material: plastic, aluminium, LED, flood light, mirror board, two-ways mirror board, plexiglas

As the result, LED infinite rotation makes lighting trail as plural rippled rings.

This system is set into the bottom of the box made by mirror board on each side, and the lid is made by two-way reflection mirror board. This is going to be a 1 unit. When we look into this box deep side by any angle, we can see infinity effect by mirror reflection. 1 unit is made by 6X6X6 inch as actual size. It will be installed on the wall in the hallway as 3 units X 3 units as it's shown above. The person passing this or closer naturally will know this interaction, even in the dark.

Project Idea Vol.3

2005-07-21T14:18:00.000-07:00

"Air screen" is going to the below from now on,

Objective:
This project is supposed to be installed on the wall in the hallway,
and gives us small visual & sound interruption.
If the person be closer to this, its fan will start to rotate,
otherwise, (goes away from this), will stop to rotate.

Simultaneously the sound will come out and will stop
and video will be seen on the PC
and will be another picture which mention "stop" on the PC.

Change Pot to Micro Sensor:
The sound should be followed by the action of the person passing by.This will be created and understood as an interruption by the person on the hallway.

-Air Screen -

Servo Motor can't work infinitely, so I got Bipolar Stepper Motor today.

Midterm Goal:
Assign the movements to this Bipolar Stepper Motor. Put the colored line on the fan with the motor. Check possibility to be seen colored ripple ring or some colored pattern in the air afterwards.

Final Goal:
Put the sensor into this. It can interrupt its movement by the person passing by in front of this sensor. Make this as 1 unit and consider to expand this installation by using different color.

Project Idea

-Air Screen-

There are 4 painted pedals on the Servo Motor which linked to the switch nearby.
With switch on, 4 padals will rotate horizontally and show some picture.
Hopefully it has a sound interaction also.
This is going to be a wall decoration, especially set up indoor, i.e. museum or exhibition hall.
4 pedal should be counted as 1 unit.
If million units can be shown as a huge decoration, very eye catching.
Each unit should be painted different colors.
