Low Air Pressure

Humidity

Negative Air Ion

The sound of rain is a kind of white noise, which filters and disperses noise and helps reduce distraction.

The relatively cooler temperatures on rainy days make people soberer and think critically, and their percept- ions of themselves are less biased.

Rain affects the production of vitamin D3 in the skin, which decreases the level of 5-hydroxytryptamine synthesis in brains thus leading to depression.

Rainy days tend to cause seasonal affective disorder, with symptoms similar to many psychological and em- otional problems.

Low air pressure can affect the body's oxygen supply, leading to feelings of depression and discomfort.

The high humidity of rainy days reduces the concen- tration of thyroxine and adrenaline, making people less energetic and less motivated.

Lightning and rain produce large amounts of negative ions, which are beneficial to the functioning of the body system and have a soothing and hypnotic effect.

inspires participants to think about the social phenomenon of stagnation due to pressures in the context of the epidemic by using rains that are pursuing their equilibrium after fighting against multiple pressures.

With several speakers generating surround sound, a realistic rain-sounding environme- nt is created for the audience.

Rain animations are shown by the project- or and figures are captured by the Kinect for visualization.

The air conditioner lowers the temperature, creating a vivid physical environment for visitors and aiding reflection.

User Interaction

DRIVEN DRIZZLE

is an interactive design designed to experiment with modern digital technology, combining auditory, visual, and tactile immersive experi- ences to stimulate participants' thoughts.

Participants engage in interaction.

The Kinect transmits signals to the processing.

Visualisation and audio transmit to the devices.

Participants are provoked to think.

Participants

Kinect

Processing

Speaker + Projector

Participants are Captured by the Kinect.

The Kinect is connected to a computer with Processing and the visualization of the figure after the recognition is set up.

The visualization is processed by processing and the corres-ponding audio is transmitted to the speakers and projector.

The atmosphere created by visualization and sound allows participants to immerse themselves in the life of rain.

Prototype

During the device testing phase, I adjusted the angle of the projector and Kinect, tested the capture effect of Kinect, and optimized the visualization of the processing.
