STICKY COLORS

Sticky Colors is an immersive intervention where the user interacts indirectly with following lights, whose colors are informed by the ambient temperature.

It consists of a round-shaped room in which three modules are displayed. Each module is composed of an Ultrasonic Sensor, in charge of measuring the distance to people in constant flux; a Stepper Motor, in charge of moving the LEDs according to the position informed by the Ultrasonic Sensor; and an RGB Led that moves around the room following the users. Additionally, a Temperature Sensor controls the color of each LED, remapping the temperature in an RGB coding system.

The result is a shaded space illuminated by three LEDs that move around the room according to the user’s position, changing their color that the environmental conditions inform.
