How can atmospheric data be visualized as a living, organic entity to provide users with actionable feedback and enhance their interaction with smart home technologies?

Background

We wanted to see how varied data generated in a space can be turned into a living organic entity that gives actionable feedback to the user in order to further explore the developing field of sensor technology. This resulted in a visualization that didn't simply communicate numbers or information, but rather gives the user a 'feeling' of whether or not the measured data is good.

What did we learn?

The challenge was to show atmospheric data as a 3D entity, therefore we learned how to use the 'Three.js' JavaScript 3D library in combination with 'shaders'.

Ambitions

Smart home technologies will empower people in managing a healthy atmosphere in spaces that they live. This experiment exemplifies a strong approach by displaying data as 'living and breathing' to create a more organic relationship with data.
