This project was quite tech heavy it involved a lot of coding and using an Ai system in my code to recognise emotions. I installed a camera into the Raspberry pie and that feedback of the camera linked back to the ai system it used a library of faces to compare to and then it changed colour based on this feedback. The idea was to calm people down or just kind of mellow out their emotions and it did this by using a colour that had different emotions attached to them like example if you had an angry face, it would go yellow which has positive connotations. This meant I didd’t spend as much time on the construction of the design which was inspired by pram tops and was actually much more time intensive than I thought so if I wanted to revisit this project I would change a lot to the construction and make it have a folding system which is what I set out to do but decided to focus more on the tech since that was the important part of the project.

The goal of this product was to conjure strong emotions and deep thoughts or simply dazzle us with its visual brilliance just like art does in Museums! In a Study in 2011 Human guinea pigs underwent brain scans while being shown a series of 30 paintings by some of the world's greatest artists.The artworks they considered most beautiful increased blood flow in a certain part of the brain by as much as 10 per cent – the equivalent to gazing at a loved one. The emotional benefits from love is a crucial factor to cure depression and reduce suicidal thoughts.
