stressful place in hospital waiting room

P R O P O S E D _ S O L U T I O N
This project nourishes interaction between
an interactive interior installation and people's activity
in a hospital waiting room.
A field of long thin fibers(tentacle) with a metal piece on its tip
that hang on the ceiling will give real-time response driven by
a sensor embedded in the chair that measure the user's breathing rate
also the duration of their sitting time.
Different breathing pattern would lead
different form of motion created in the tentacle field
and the sitting time alter the growth of tentacles downwards slowly,
if more user comes into play, the field would turn the whole ceiling alive
by slow swinging the tentacles.
The environment help user to take away their stressfulness
of waiting in the hospital by engaging them into the relationship
of the moving tentacles and their breathing rate.

ABSTRACT CONCEPT
Although some breaths may be deeper or faster than others,
when we're relaxed, the alternating rhythm of the inhalations
and exhalations feels like a lullaby
—smooth, soft, and uninterrupted by jerks and jags.
Consciously relaxing into this wavelike,
oceanic quality of the breath deepens our sense of peace and ease.

An electromagnet is a type of magnet whose magnetic field
is produced by the flow of electric current.
The magnetic field disappears when the current ceases.
Two directional bi-flex sensors
A unique component that changes resistance when bent.
An un-flexed sensor has a nominal resistance of 10,000 ohms (10 K).
As the flex sensor is bent in either direction the resistance gradually
decreases.Sensor is also pressure sensitive, and may be used as a force
or pressure sensor.
