About Venous Materials Интерфейси интерактивии моеъӣ

Venous Materials интерфейси интерактивии моеъӣ мебошад, ки ба ламс ва ҳаракат вокуниш нишон медиҳад. Тарҳ аз системаҳои рагҳое, ки дар растаниҳо, баргҳо ва бадани инсон мавҷуданд, илҳом гирифта шудааст. Фишор ё деформатсияе, ки корбар мерасонад, моеъро тавассути каналҳои дохилӣ ҳаракат медиҳад ва нақшу рангҳои тағйирёбандаро ба вуҷуд меорад. Ҳар як намуна дар айни замон ҳам ҳамчун сенсор ва ҳам ҳамчун намоишгари иттилооти ламсшаванда кор мекунад. Прототипҳо аз силикони PDMS ва ранги ecoline сохта шудаанд, бо истифода аз кандакории лазерӣ ва равандҳои дастии лабораторӣ. Аксарияти онҳо андозаи 5 ба 5 сантиметр доранд ва баъзеашон ба 15 ба 15 сантиметр мерасанд.

Unique Properties
The Venous Materials project envisions a new way to design dynamic tangible interactions using fluidic structures. It is a new type of dynamic interactive material that is inspired by veins systems in nature: in plants, leaves, and throughout the human body. These Materials respond to user's pressure and motion with dynamic displayed patterns. Venous Materials can animate dynamic graphics, create responsive objects, and to visualize body movement and balance.
Dimensions & Packaging
The different Venous Materials prototypes are mainly 5cmX5cm, while some of them can get up to 15cmX15cm.

Production Technology
Venous Materials technology developed through research on current Microfluidics,that is specifically designed for human interaction and UX design. A specilized computational tool was developed for the design process and to simulate and visualize of the color change and display of the flow within the material, according to the user input. Production process involves laser engraving and manual lab processes. Materials used are PDMS silicone and ecoline ink.
Design Challenge
While current computer chips and electronics usually require rigid and bulky components that challenges the integration with varied objects or fabrics, Venous Materials is soft and self-contained mechanism that utilizes the motion of daily activities as its energy source. Design of micro-fluid dynamics is not intuitive task, our approach and computational tool allows the design, simulation, and prototyping of fluidic interactive sensors that can be embedded in, or attached to, any object.
Research
This work present design and fabrication methods for interactive fluidic mechanisms that respond to deformation by mechanical inputs from the user. The Venous design tool provides designers with a simple way to create and validate designs of fluidic structures. It allows users to design the geometry, and simulate the flow with intended mechanical force dynamically. This leads to Interactive applications of Venous Materials, to augment human movement and everyday objects.
Inspiration
This project is inspired by venous structures that are ubiquitous throughout nature and in the human body. By changing colors, veins can inform us of internal and external physical conditions. For example, veins in leaves transmit pigments that drive color change, which informs us of the internal condition of the leaf and which season it is. When we press firmly on a button, the tip of our finger changes its color, this subtle color change can be used to indicate the applied pressure.
Project Duration
The project started June 2019 and finished April 2020 in Cambridge, MA, at the MIT Media Lab, Tangible Media group
Operation Flow
The displayed flow pattern and color change of the fluidic channels within Venous Materials inform the users of the motion and physical force that is applied on the material. The users can interact with Venous Materials by deforming or applying pressure on the material, which drives the fluid flow within the internal channels to visualize the dynamic responsive display. Therefore, Venous Materials simultaneously functions as a sensor and display of tangible information.
