Emotion CollectoR
Year : 2020
In this period, a lot of turbulence happens every day. That effect on many people gets them into trouble with mental hearth and increases their anxiety. So that is why we try to find the way that helps our consciousness. Build immunity to our own mental health. The most popular tip that people usually use is a “mood tracker” journal that helps people to record their daily mood by coloring notes. It's fun and helps people to understand themselves through emotion that happens every day. We are interested in this method and would like to
redesign and bring the mood tracker to the new context.
"Emotion Collector" is a result of redesigning the mood tracker’s experience into the lifestyle product that gives the emotion learning experience by collecting the emotions data from the user in each moment.
then the server will transfer the data and show the Average result by beam the colors light,
In which every emotion will be represented by different colors.
So the light atmosphere in your room will change depending on your emotional data.
Function and Material
Function of this product is emotion learning and decoration user space at the same time. Because of connecting two functions. So we select the materials to encourage emotional learning to be more tangible. If you understand your feelings, you will understand other people too. therefore it will make everyone have more empathy
- The mirror gives us to reflect ourselves by seeing from outside in.
- interactive devices to give users can answer such as sensor, emoticon display, maybe connect with a webapp in the future.
- Color Lighting represent variety emotion such as white(normal) yellow(happy) red(angry) blue(sad) green(bore) purple(anxious)
- IOT calculate average result of data and visualizes it in the gradient lighting color form to represent mixing of emotions.
- The cover we use freeform profiles inspired by movement of emotion.
How to use
1. Choose the emotion that you are feeling right now by putting your hand below the sensor.
putting your hand below the right sensor or left sensor to shift the emotion.
2. Answer by clapping or making noise.
3.then the Object will show the result by beam the color light.
Color Lighting represent variety emotion such as white(normal) yellow(happy) red(angry) blue(sad) green(bore) purple(anxious)
IOT calculate average result of data and visualizes it in the gradient lighting color form to represent mixing of emotions.
principle of distribution
Because this prototype we make by lasercut and 3D printing. So in the future the design can support mini production at fabrication service hab near your house. Like a franchise, users or buyers can buy products at fabrication services hubs around the world. It is an alternative distribution. No need to use a factory and don’t have to waste money with logistics costs.
We Designed to support Customization. First, because we design it to make it look like a decoration lighting product, if users don't need to use a mood tracking function. They don’t need to leave because they can use it to be a lighting product and decorate their space. Second, in the future users can change the mode of tracking. Don’t have to track just emotion mode but we design to support another mode such as good relationship mode , healthy food mode, etc. Third, Because it is based on arduino production, if some part is broken, it can be replaced with a new part.They don’t have to buy a whole new product because just one part is broken.

Emotion Collector Designed by CODE STUDIO
CO-DE = Collaboration + Design .
Combination of skill / passion / interest
Code is a studio, established by 2 designers who have different passions, first is Wongsathon who is interested in learning experience design, and Lalita who has a passion for decoration product design. Resulting in overlapping interests and coming up with a new way for the experiment to find new possibilities in design.
