In our Cyber-Physical System (CPS) project, we developed an interactive installation that simulates the possible physical and emotional interactions when encountering an ex-partner.
This system is built on an Arduino-based mechanical structure that enables three degrees of freedom, allowing for a dynamic and realistic representation of movement. By integrating Wekinator, a machine learning platform, our system can recognize user gestures and respond accordingly, creating a nuanced and interactive experience of “reunion.”
Through the combination of hardware engineering, motion control, and real-time interaction, our project explores the emotional complexity of past relationships, using technology to reimagine human connection in an interactive and thought-provoking way.
