The interaction
Measure concentration of carbon monoxide in the air and visualize it on shirt.
The materials
Biometric sensors, muscle wire / shape memory alloys, thermochromatic fabric.
The implementation
Based on the level of carbon monoxide, an Arduino microcontroller sends out electricity through the muscle wires (copper, aluminum and nickel/nickel titanium) which heat up the thermochromatic fabric that changes color to show concentration change.
Our motivation
Wearable artifact that uses natural (soft) materials.
Designed for use in public space (outside).
Relevant theme (sustainability). Discursive design.
