Project Description:

Project Group 22: Vision Assistive Wearables

We have created a chest piece mounted on a vest that will notify the wearer of incoming obstacles. These notifications will come in forms of vibrations that will vary in strength and pulse that will scale with the detected object's distance from the user. The active vibration motors will be aligned in the direction of the obstacle detected by the sensors. This functioning prototype was designed to be used to help detect objects and obstacles in dark environments.

Multi-level Security Smart Door

Project Idea:

Our project idea is a smart door. It is a door that is secured with fingerprint, facial, and voice recognition. It will feature a traditional key and lock mechanism as well. In case of failure, the user can request the smart door to send a QR code to his/her smartphone in order to unlock the door. An application will allow the user to select the desired locking mechanisms.

Pulse is an effort to integrate player emotions in games (mainly focused on virtual reality games) through the application of digital signal processing (DSP) and machine learning techniques to biological signals. Despite the depth of immersion and presence that modern virtual reality (VR) head-mounted displays (HMDs) grant to users, emotional connections in games remain a one-way connection: from the game to the player. The sheer visual immersion VR HMDs offer to players helps them feel some additional emotional immersion in in-game worlds through added presence, but the inability for these games to actually read player emotions inhibits true emotional connections in VR games. Pulse not only seeks to break down this barrier, but it will also explore the potential that affective (i.e., emotionally-aware) games offer in both entertainment as well as fear training and therapy.
