DESIGN PLATFORMS




Ceramic Circuits2023


︎︎︎ View Details 

	




Glazed ceramic is a versatile material and people use it everyday. Rather than develop new electronic devices, what if we could use these everyday ceramic objects as computational interfaces? In this platform, students explored embedding interactive circuits into ceramic objects based on research developed by the Interactive Materials Lab. From these explorations, they conceptualized and built a range of applications for everyday ceramic interfaces.





	

Museums Alive2022


︎︎︎ View Details 

	




In this joint platform with Architecture and the Innovation Design Program, students collaborated and designed immersive and interactive museum experiences for actual art collections held by the NUS Museum and Singapore Art Museum. Students leveraged emerging digital technology and develop a wide range of projects that challenge the traditional boundaries of museum artifacts and spaces.





	

Tinycade2022


︎︎︎ View Details 

	




In this platform, students were challenged to redefine the boundaries of the magic circle commonly associated with video games; and to develop projects that facilitate playful and tangible experiences for a specific audience in mind. Students built DIY systems that facilitated tangible play experiences. These experiences are powered by everyday mobile devices, leveraging onboard sensors and cameras for interaction sensing and computer vision.







	

Haptic Everyday2021


︎︎︎ View 

Details

 

	


In this platform, haptics as a design consideration takes center stage. Design students explored materials through the lens of haptics. From this exploration, they defined new material systems for haptics and systematically characterized the haptic behavior of these systems. They then designed and built real world applications on top of the new haptic systems they developed.





	



Tangible Data2021


︎︎︎ View 

Details

 

	In this platform, students investigated data as a material. We operated on the premise that representing data in more tangible and interactive ways will lead to alternative interactions and sense-making that facilitate how people explore a specific data set of type. We also critically examined the many technical and design challenges around designing with complex data and making them tangible.



	





DIY AR Interfaces2020


︎︎︎ View Details 

	The COVID-19 pandemic has amplified the role of different digital contexts for living, working, learning, and playing. At the same time, it has exposed the fragility of the global supply network and fueled an already active DIY culture. In this design platform, students were tasked to pull these trends together and develop DIY tangible interactive experiences for a specific context, supported by fiducial markers and computer vision (a facet of augmented reality).



	







	DESIGN COMPUTING




Electronics as Material


︎︎︎ View Details 

	In this 6-week design fundamental module, first year undergraduate students explored physical computing by building their own sensors and electronic circuits—as opposed to using off the shelf components. Their explorations were anchored in the task of making a controller for the classic game “Snake”.




	

Computing for Design


︎︎︎ View Details 

	Computing for Design is a core module for second year industrial design students. We engage students in computational thinking concepts through a series of projects built on the Micro:bit and p5.js platform. This module culminates in a reflection essay where students compare computational thinking with their design process.

Crafting Ceramic Circuits2023Glazed ceramic is a versatile material and people use it everyday. Humans have long harnessed this material and its many qualities
to make practical and decorative objects—from dining and kitchen
ware, to home and architectural fixtures. 
Rather than develop new electronic devices, what if we could use these everyday ceramic objects as computational interfaces?


In this research, we propose an approach to integrate interactive circuits into existing glazed ceramic objects. This approach was developed in collaboration with Hans Tan, a designer who works with porcelain objects and sandblasting to express themes around Singapore’s heritage. We adapted his technique of “resist-blasting” to selectively remove glaze from a ceramic object with a vinyl mask, revealing the rough texture beneath. We then paint conductive ink onto the object and scrape excess ink off to reveal the conductive traces defined by the masked pattern.
Using this approach, we demonstrate a variety of functional interactive circuits, including touch sensing table ware, temperature sensing tiles, and moisture sensing planters. We also used this approach to apply heating elements directly onto dining vessels.

Project Beholder2020–Beholder is a CV (computer vision) platform that transforms 2D fiducial markers into a material for physical computing. 
We developed a visual design editor that supports people to connect different parameters of these markers (such as presence, position, and rotation) to keyboard input. This enables CV-driven interfaces to control any software that takes keyboard as an input.

Shape Haptics2022


Shape Haptics is a new approach&#38;nbsp;for designers to rapidly design
and fabricate passive force feedback mechanisms for physical
interfaces. 
Passive (unpowered) haptic mechanisms are found in objects and devices all around us—and they are challenging to design. Shape Haptics abstracts and broadens the expression of this class of haptic mechanisms. 
Shape Haptics mechanisms consist of 2D laser cut parts fabricated from POM plastic. They comprise a compliant spring structure that engages with a sliding profile during interaction. By shaping the sliding profile, designers can easily customize the haptic force feedback delivered
by the mechanism.&#38;nbsp;
We demonstrate how Shape Haptics can be applied to a variety of applications, including changing the haptics of existing objects and interfaces, as well as building new interactive systems. We also developed a sandbox for others to explore and fabricate their own Shape Haptics mechanisms.
