Minor Project: Input-Output matrix (individual) 

Develop an interactive device, taking inputs from one sensor and providing a physical output such as lights or movement. Each student must make at least two devices 


Sound (Buzzer or Loudspeaker)Movement (Motor, Solenoid, Servo) Light (LED, neopixel, lightbulb)Tactile (vibration motor, actuator, Peltier)Graphic Display (OLED, LCD, 7 segments) 
Sound (microphone, piezo)  




Movement (distance, motion, gesture, gyro, pressure, flex sensor)




Atmospheric (Temperature, humidity, air quality, pressure)




Bio-sensor (Pulse, GSR, EMG) 






Light (colour, luminance, IR) 




Touch (buttons, pressure, capacitance)




Major Project:  (groups of 2 to 3 students)

Create an interactive device that attempts to build empathy through human-like behaviour. What technological requirements are there for such behaviour to be apparent? How does emotion assist improve interaction with this device? What inputs and outputs are necessary/suitable for such interaction? 

The major project is inclusive of: 

  • Ideation: Moodboard, Brainstorming and Sketches 
  • Iterative prototyping of interaction 
  • Final prototype 
  • Project presentation
