Student Project
a robot for encouraging to quit smoking
Project Brief:
Air Quality Sensing and Reporting Station for Home Use
Project Duration:
09.2016 - 10.2016
Project Description:
Smoki's form is a minimalist penguin abstraction, designed to look cute to its user.
Smoki’s aim is to encourage its user to quit smoking.
Smoki's user group consists of people who are smoking and trying to quit. But Smoki’s buyers might be both the people who want to quit smoking and their relatives or friends who want them to quit.
For Smoki to accomplish certain effectiveness, said users should already have a willingness to quit smoking.
If Smoki detects no smoking for a period of time, Smoki will sound happy!
If Smoki detects smoke for a long time it will keep its sad expression proportionally.
Smoki's sad expressions and sounds are supposed to make users feel sad when they smoke next to it.
