Interactive toy project for Core Design Studio IV. Designed in collaboration with Andrew Siu.
Interactive Musical Device that produces tones and loops. Sound can be manipulated by physically moving and controlling certain elements of the device.
IR sensors detect the distances of propeller blades triggering a corresponding tone to emit from the device.
Paint Looper

description
Group InteractiveToy project for Core Design IV. The Lego Mindstorm kit was used to prototype an interactive children's toy. The Kit also introduced our class to sensor technologies and programming languages.
The Paint Looper's actions are triggered by instruments. After a sensor inside the instrument has been activated, a resulting action is triggered (eg. paint is pushed through plastic syringes onto a previously activated spinning canvas).

HEXTER was a collaborative project between myself, Dean Bennett, Katelynn Gillette, Stephanie Vacher, David Su and Cheylene Tattersall in second year Design. The focus was to design an "interactive object" for children with an emphasis on longevity and baltic birch construction.
Tip Top: Interactive toy for children
images
description
Tip Top is a collaboration project between Industrial Design students, Communication Design students, and young co-creators to create an interactive product for kids using only wood. As a collective, we created a new balancing game that encourages interaction between the children and also with their parents. The graphic elements on the board act as a point system which each ring represents a different point value.
Troobs - Children's Interactive Object

description
Created in conjunction with 4 grade 1 girls from False Creek Elementary School, Troobs is an interactive and modular kids object that integrates wooden rings, and household objects. This object promotes interaction by allowing children to manipulate and organize their toys.
‘Connecting’ was always a key aspect to our object. We wanted a visual element that would support interaction for the kids. The graphic treatment had to be simple and attractive to work well with the shape.
