Wall decor for the home that tracks locations of family members and reminds them of the importance of spending time together!   

Sallie's Brief: 

Wall decor for the home that tracks the locations of family members and reminds them of the importance of their time together. With many families' busy schedules, it is hard to keep track of who is at home and easy to forget the importance of time together. Home Base was designed to unite families by creating a fun wall decor for them to gather around. Each family member is represented by a frame, and their proximity to the house is represented by the frame's position. When everyone is out of the house each frame casts part of a shadow on the wall. This is due to the frames not aligning. As everyone returns home, the frames rotate to align so you are able to see through all the frames, as the complete pattern appears! This new shadow design will light up the room and gather the family!  

Roisin's Brief: 

Home Base:  Home decor that helps keep track of your family and reminds you of the importance of spending time with your family. Life gets busy and sometimes you forget to check in with your family members. This raising the question of do I make an effort to reach out to your family when they aren't there physically? Our project consists of 4 picture frames, one for each member of a family. Each frame presents a certain family member with a pattern that represents each person individually but together represents one big family. Once they leave the house there frame will fall to the side and when they come home it will come back to the middle. How we got that to work is we create a pulley system with a base frame. There would be two pulleys and the top pulley holds the frame. Using a servo and sensor from Arduino, we can get the frame to move to the side and back to the center. If everyone is home it will show one pattern but apart it's a broken patter. It also cast a shadow of this pattern on them all. It makes you think about your family and brings you all together.
