Resumo(s)
Interactive products are appealing objects in a
technology-driven society and the offer in the market is wide and
varied. Most of the existing interactive products only provide
either light or sound experiences. Therefore, the goal of this
project was to develop a product aimed for children combining
both features. This project was developed by a team of four thirdyear
students with different engineering backgrounds and
nationalities during the European Project Semester at ISEP
(EPS@ISEP) in 2012. This paper presents the process that led to
the development of an interactive sound table that combines nine
identical interaction blocks, a control block and a sound block.
Each interaction block works independently and is composed of
four light emitting diodes (LED) and one infrared (IR) sensor.
The control is performed by an Arduino microcontroller and the
sound block includes a music shield and a pair of loud speakers. A
number of tests were carried out to assess whether the controller,
IR sensors, LED, music shield and speakers work together
properly and if the ensemble was a viable interactive light and
sound device for children.
