Ear the Thinker
A giant ear model to simulate the human hearing process using a Arduino nano, a microfone, servo motor and color led strips.
A video is worth two thousand words
A fast ferrier transform free library code for arduino help me out doing the trick of transform the voice pitches into color spectrum in realtime.
Exhibit informative Panels
The Panels are covered by a adhesive that turn they into a mirror.
But when someone get closer to the panel, a sensor inside him trigger a smooth backlight dimmer process that turns the mirrored Panel into a informative media panel with data about the Art Work.
There were 16 big Panels total.
