B.E.E.P's (Bots Enabling Enhanced Play) was a project conducted by Professor Michael Felix's Spring 2013 IACT 375 Perceptual and Cognitive Human Factors class: Cesar Corral-Castilla, Elyse Larouere, Colin Beney, William Oakman and Patrick Hoyer.

More process photos from our first working prototype.  PIR sensors were used to capture motion and trigger an audio response.

Our class (IACT 375) is in the process of creating an interactive hallway experience.  Pictured are some photos taken during the creation of our first working prototype.  During class we wired up PIR sensors to Arduinos (single-board microcontrollers) which allowed us to program a sound to be triggered from any source of motion.

Here a sneak peek into what the final top of the todems is gonna look like. You will be able to find these hidden gems all around Gulfstream.

Small scale models for the next step in the censor todems. It is always in your best interest to make small scale before u go big because if we didn't we would not have realized that we need to flip the pattern the todems would be facing the wrong way .

Here we are testing a working prototype. With these censors and speakers we are trying to bring life to a dead space with in Gulfstream.

Here is the most beautiful egg you have ever seen decorated. Then we looked at what the rest of the class  had done. Then I was interested to see what all the eggs that I had done collaged  together.
