Case Studies: User Exploration & Example Constructions

Example Constructions

We contructed different types of grippers and simple walking devices to explore their capabilities and test the feasibility of more complex constructions. An selection of examples is shown below.

User Explorations

InflatiBits Case Studies

We conducted a series of informal user explorations with children between 5 and 15 years of age. The InflatiBits was also presented publicly at two events, the Summæry 2015 the annual exhibition of the Bauhaus-Universität Weimar and the Demo Session of theTEI 2016 conference.

At both events the construction set was presented as a as a walk-up-and-use hands-on exhibit. Visitors could visitors could freely interact with the modules, and user behavior, comments, interaction time and reactions to the system where observed.
