Mid term Concept

S2

For my thesis, I am looking at urban spaces and researching on how people navigate through the space and communicate within that space.

For my midterm, I would like to make a toy which will communicate whether you are intruding its space by sound and light feedback. The data will be collected from surveying 3 different cities, New York, Madras and Amsterdam. There will be three robots made with different IR ranges depending on the results of the survey.

This will act as a tool that expresses how physical contact, personal space and such differs according to the geographic location and culture.
