My first concept is a toque to help people in the dark. The toque has 4 proximity sensors that will sense if the person is approaching an obstacle and will sound/vibrate if he/she gets too close. However, this concept is too literal and does not extend the human emotion, it only somewhat extends the human capability when maneuvering in the dark. So another concept will be uploaded soon

Since the first concept was too literal. I consulted with the TAs again and came up with another concept. I wanted to do something about time. I was talking with my friends one school day and one of them said something about us already being in the middle of the semester. I thought to myself, time flies by so fast. That night, I thought about the concept again and decided to do something regarding time.

 

As we do our daily activities, we don't realize how much time we spend and just let it pass through. Even though time is always constant, we feel that it passes by so fast because we get caught up in busyness and routines. I thought to myself, why can't we appreciate the time we have by taking a day off and just appreciate life as it is, that is how I came up with my concept.

I chose walking as the first action because it is something that the human body is very used to. A human does not need to think or realize that they are walking, they just do it. The second action is to stop. When we stop walking, we either reach our end point, encounter a distraction or just simply want to observe something that brought attention to our sense organs.
