| Abstract(in English) | In this research, we propose a novel entertainment system named Iridescent I/O, which utilizes soap bubbles created by audiences' puff as a switch of our familiar electronic devices such as light, radio, toys and so on. In this system, at first the audience creates soup bubbles by using a straw. Then, he/she puts the bubbles on small plates with electrical poles. When the bubbles are placed on the plates, the bubbles work as a part of the electronic circuit of the device because the soup film has high conductivity. As long as the bubbles exist, the light is turned on and the radio plays audio. The toy car runs around with a soup bubble. And when the bubble popped, these devices stop according to the timing. By using soap bubbles as a timer switch, we aim to facilitate loose interactions between the electronic devices, users and environment. In this paper, we describe the system concept, basic design, implementation of the system, and audiences' reactions through an exhibition of the system. |
