Calming Carousel
Before the Baggage is Ready:
- The light pillars activate from passengers walking around the carousel, matching the color of their shirt to spark interest and encourage spreading out.
Baggage Begins to Arrive:
- As the carousel begins to arrive, the pillars activate synchronously, coming to life as they circulate.
- The baggage color is shown on the pillar with a corresponding pitch creating beautiful tone combinations.
- As passengers approach the carousel, the LEDs fade to influence them from overcrowding the carousel.
Our Prototype
- We prototyped the pillars for a school event, in this case we reversed the sensor to make the LEDs brighter when people interact with the pillars.
- They all play differing tones and cycle through all of the potential color combinations.
