Sound Visualisation KIDS vzw
This design is part of my academic bachelor's project. This project comprises the design of a 'sound visualization for deaf and hearing impaired children'. The project was commissioned by KIDS vzw.
The goal of this project was to find a playful way to warn children when their noise level gets excessive, since it's very difficult to control for deaf and hearing impaired children. Basically the project consists of a measuring set-up with a visualization by means of multicolor LED's. To make this suitable to use with children, the LED's are arranged so they resemble a smiley that changes facial expressions according to the noise level.
This project comprises the design en development of the electronics, design of the software, and production of the circuit boards and the enclosure.
