Physical interaction design DH2400

Chameleon Chair from Ryan on Vimeo.

The chameleon chair is a prototype created at KTH in Stockholm, Sweden for a physical interaction design class. This video demonstrates the chair's ability to match the color of the sitter's clothing and fade in the longer they stay seated. When the sitter leaves the chair slowly fades out their color to represent their past presence. (At the time this video was made, not everything was fully working so this video is just a demonstration of how it should work and not how it currently does. In it's final form the chair would fade in and out much more slowly than shown in the video.)
