Interface finish...now software...

i'm sure that i mention the program that i will be using is processing...even with my helpful lecturer...we still spent lot of time in programming...
i will try to post all the code that i have( and the lecturer of cos) done as soon as possible...
u will see how complicated the programming is...
oh ya...for the sound...i actually borrowed an equipment from the school to record the urban sound...
here are the location of the sound recorded...

- behind the folk lifter in boon lay
- bus moving in bedok
- construction site in Tampines
- in the arcade at suntex city
- rain drop from far in bedok
- Riandrop from near in eunos
- sound of blowing air-condition in class
- train cooling in boon lay
- train stopping at tampines
- vacuum cleaner at home
- sound of moving vehicles at express way at tampines
- sound of machines at home
- sound of deep frying at working place
- in the IT fair at suntex city

The making of Noisical Sound... (well just the body only...)

After all the cutting and measurement...(of cos there are mistake...and i have to go to the industrial park again...)
this is the video the making of my work...



well it took me 7 week (last 7 week) to build this out....if u ask me what i did for the rest of 8 week...well...one week is we call the study break... and the rest ...remember i say i have two previous idea that i give up...yup...

oh ya...there is the isometric drawing that i have drawn...

Back to my Noiscial Sound...








errr...this is some of the research on wood that i took at enous industrial estate...(make my clothing very dirty...)




after got the material for my project...i start the measurement...this is isometric drawing that i have draw for my work...

(insert picture)




well...due to some circumstance...i was unable to film the proccess of me cutting the wood...however i did learn something new in the wood workshop...
this few last pic here is after cutting and ready for assemble...

it fabric again...

i guess this will be the longest post in my blog...


as you all can see...i decide to hack open the laser/LED pointer and use it for my term 2 project...(soft circuit la...) and let me tell you this...it is not easy to hack...or should i say tear open the body of the laser pointer...i spent like nearly 30 min just to open it...



because the laser pointer run by 4.5 volt...i have to confirm it so that i will not burn the circuit...well...this is the secooooond laser pointer...what happen to the first one....well...haha...



after testing the circuit...i move on to the wire-on technique...using the 12 volt battery...(don't worry...i TEST already...)



sewing and sewing...oh ya i also got use resistor...



these two wire thread is for the switch later on...



after confirming and all the testing... i use a special type of spray to spay on the fabric...and well... it stick...



building a cover for the battery...



using the glove will enhance the interface of my work...



and so...i decided to use conductive fabric as the switch for turning on and off the laser pointer and LED light...but in the end...it doesn't work quite well...and so...



i use the conductive button as the switch...



there it goes...i call this Final Glove...(because that is my final laser/LED pointer...that why it is final...)
