Experimental Camera

Description

This is a simulation of my dog's life. Dogs have poor vision. How the world looks like in the eyes of dog is very different from how we see the world. In this project, I simulate the vision of dogs. In certain times, there will be a goal to look for based on my dog's living habit.

Design Process

I started with brainstorming. Here are several sketches about my ideas:

I was inspired by dogs' vision. I have a dog, but I have no idea that the world we see are so different. So I came up with this idea to simulate how my dog live a day.

Here is the daily schedule of my dog:
0 am - 6 am: sleeping
6 am - 10 am: having meals
10 am - 14 am: staying at home and rest
14 am - 18 am: going out for a walk
18 am - 20 am: having meals
20 am - 22 am: going out for a walk
22 am - 0 am: staying at home and rest

According to this, I set a target in each time slot representing what my dog is thinking.

Reflection

It is a very helpful exercise. By using cameras, I can make a lot of interesting projects that allows users to interact in a fun and experimental way.
