Inhabiting the Body and the Spaces of Interaction

Wearable technologies create a tactile interface with the body of the user, providing a new model for architecture in which the surface between the subject and the object is almost seamless and sensory. As Valentina Croci explores, they also call on us to reconsider a more interdisciplinary mode of designing that accommodates a dynamic social dialogue between highly portable small-scale devices, their remote networks and the physical environment.

基于LabVIEW和Arduino的茶叶红外杀青机控制系统设计

以Arduino为下位机,LabVIEW为上位机,开发了一套茶叶红外杀青机控制系统。由LabVIEW设计控制系统的前面板,前面板上设计了温度、湿度和滚筒转速等控制按钮,由Arduino采集滚筒内的温度、湿度和滚筒转速等参数,上传至上位机LabVIEW进行分析处理,Arduino根据处理结果控制红外管的开启、风扇电机的正反转和滚筒正反转及转速,从而实现滚筒内温度和湿度的同时控制,使杀青叶不会产生烧焦和闷黄等现象,而滚筒正反转可使鲜茶叶杀青均匀。样机杀青实验验证结果表明,系统运行稳定,杀青均匀,具有良好的杀青效果。     

Sensible Objects for Digital Environments

Based in Milan, dotdotdot is poised to optimise on a client base of multinational brands, finance and real estate that takes part in the city's international shows and fairs. Valentina Croci explains how this young Italian practice has set out to develop its interactive installations with a ‘participative dynamic’ that enables clients to effectively communicate their message through the immediate and exclusive involvement of the visitor.

A new and inexpensive open source data acquisition and controller for solar research: Application to a water-flow glazing

A water-flow window consists of two glass panes making up a chamber in which a water layer flows in a controlled way. Such windows may be considered as Building-Integrated Solar Thermal (BIST) collectors, and could assist to incorporate renewable energy systems in buildings, improving their energy efficiency, especially when they are properly managed by a control system. Despite the need of an automatic controller for this kind of window and the advantages of microprocessor-based control for solar systems, only differential controllers have been described. A novel controller based on an inexpensive open source microcontroller board has been designed, built, programmed and installed in an experimental prototype water-flow window. The proposed data acquisition and control system, the code sequence steps, a model algorithm, and a comparison between the data collected by the system and a commercial datalogger are presented. The advantages of using an open source board for the proposed control system are analysed and the benefits of using a control system based on a microcontroller are discussed.

On scratching your own itch

Following Massimo Banzi's comment that the Arduino development board might be seen as a means of ‘scratching your own itch’, this paper explores the concept of affect in relation to physical computing, and investigates the ways in which cybernetic and networked objects could be said to enact a series of process-philosophical and object-oriented tensions. In so doing it addresses the cultural saturation of Arduino and its employment in an array of institutional, artistic and activist contexts, and brings this to bear on the conflict between the process philosophy of Gilles Deleuze and the more directly object-oriented perspectives of Graham Harman, Ian Bogost and Bruno Latour. Framing the enquiry around the at once ethico-aesthetic and speculative realist questions of what it is to ‘scratch' and what it is to ‘itch', the paper examines micro- and macro-political agency in the context of physical computing—contrasting process philosophy's pronounced notion of affective, connective, creative differentiation with the black-boxed, withdrawn objects of object-oriented philosophy, and its quasi-causal mode of aesthetic interaction.

Experimental investigation on controlled cooling by coupling of thermoelectric and an air impinging jet for CPU

In this study, experimental tests have been carried out on the coupling thermoelectric cooling module with minichannel heatsink subjected to impinging airflow for cooling desktop central processing unit (CPU). A controlled thermoelectric-forced test system was designed for this purpose. This was designed using electronic Arduino card. The proposed hybrid cooling system was compared with the conventional forced air-cooling technique. Three power of heat source (CPU) were adopted, investigated, and compared, namely 60, 87, and 95 W. Performance of controlled thermoelectric cooling with three preset temperature were experimentally examined. The effects of air velocity and thermoelectric input current on the case temperature (T_case), thermal resistance, and heat transfer coefficient were analyzed. Results showed that the T_case increases with the increase of its input power. In addition, increasing air jet velocity and thermoelectric input current improve CPU cooling significantly. For a CPU power of 95 W, the recorded T_case temperature was 57°C with the conventional system. While it was maintained below 50°C in the hybrid system. The thermoelectric cooler has had a major effect on CPU cooling, having 15% improvement over conventional forced air-cooling. However, this was accompanied by an increase in energy consumption in the range of 45 W.
