Abstract

The Aware Eye is a playful, wearable prototype designed to detect and respond to its surrounding environment. The prototype consists of a 10 cm diameter mechanical eye, integrated to the back of a hoodie worn by the user. Using proximity sensors, the eye senses nearby objects and turns its gaze towards them. The Aware Eye is a design provotype articulating human augmentation and pervasive camera-based tracking. Findings from a focus group user study (n=13) highlight thoughts provoked by the prototype.
