One project that stuck out to me that required interaction a piece that required users to jump on pads and based on their jumping it fed power into certain objects. You could also read on a monitor how much power you were actually generating based on your jumps.
A second project I found to be pretty cool was a sort of analog jukebox. Created with an arduino and various objects that were inside of this wooden box would make specific sounds based on a predetermined pattern. You could however remove and place different types of objects into a metal bowl of sorts to make different noises. This piece stuck out to me because I am interested in physical computing however the user interaction wasn’t as apparent as the jumping power mat because it wasn’t as obvious that that could be done. The creator would explain that you could do it.
