Title
PeR: designing for perceptive qualities
Abstract
In this video we show PeR, short for 'Perception Rug'. The design is created as part of our research on how to design for perceptive qualities in objects. This research is conducted around the educational and research theme 'Wearable Senses' and has a theoretical departure in the 'phenomenology of perception' and 'ecological psychology'. The integration of conductive and optic fibers, respectively enable PeR to sense the touch of a person and to let a body of light behave within the surface of the rug. The design can be used as a platform for the exploration of perceptive behavior. Different design characteristics, like the size of the light body, the speed by which the body moves, its shape, focus and direction, can be adjusted in order to design behavior.
