MEMORY USB DEVICE
PROTOTYPE I
The device is to be built in 3 parts:
1. Arduino circuit for working of Display Screen
2. Attach the PIR Motion Sensor: Memory Gizmo
3. USB at other end
Components-
Memory Gizmo
Display Screen
Iris scan sensor
Projected Screen (projection) from the display screen on authentication of Iris scan
Option selection- save/retrieve a memory
Activation of the Memory Gizmo
Twin Memory Sensors- One in the memory gizmo
- Other implanted in the brain
8. Pairing of the memory sensor in the brain and the memory gizmo.
FLOW OF THE ENTIRE PROCESS-
PROTOTYPE I
OBJECT INTERACTION DEMO-
Based on the feedback from prototype I, we decided to work essentially on improving 3 aspects of the prototype-
1st- the way in which the memory could be seen- IN THE FORM OF A PROJECTION.
2nd- We wanted to highlight the most important part of the USB- the memory gizmo.
3rd- The eye icon to indicate that an eye scan authentication is required to access memory stored in the stick.
PROTOTYPE II
Flowchart explaining how you can access the memory through the projection from the stick:
IMPACT-
Act as a social memory tool for people suffering from Alzheimers disease or amnesia.
Help people remain connected.
THINGS TO PONDER FOR FUTURE ITERATIONS-
Interfaces- the different ways in which the memory could be accessed through the stick
Privacy- The vulnerability with all your memory stored in a memory stick.
Audio Memory- For people who might suffer from poor vision, what are the other mediums through which the person could re-visit their memories.
