Arduino Code
Arduino code. There were problems with organising code and the tail wag. The ‘If’ statements and ‘loop’ solved this.
Arduino Boards
We tried conductive tape the dog’s side to make the tail wag on the owner’s side. We had to swap out the tape for a button which worked quite well.
The physical computing for the buttons and the servo.
The physical computing for the motion sensor and the noise.
Prototypes
The dog’s side of the interaction. Figuring out the appropriate size and movement for the dog.
User Testing, Interview>
An idea for an interactive dog toy. You could put treats in the groves.
A prototype for the tail wag. Finding the right size to fit the Arduino board inside.
Foam prototype for the owners side of the interaction. We were trying to find a nice shape to ‘pet’.
