Shape changing displays - Marmo

Interaction Design

Designed To Love

For this assignment, the goal was to create an interactive product concept for seniors. The interaction needs to be easily understood with no overload of functions. As a result of this assignment our group built an interactive and working record player.

During this assignment we matched three competences. The first competence was an on-screen projection with a beamer and animation created in Adobe After Effects. The second competence was 3D modelling and mechanical design for building our prototype. The last competence was using electronics and Arduino to make sure our prototype worked.

Marmo is a romantic record player that makes your dinner unforgettable. We wanted to create a romantic atmosphere with Marmo and it’s elegant design. Marmo works when one of five marbles is placed on the large white circle. Each marble represents a song that starts playing when the marble starts to dance on the lyrics of the song.
