Data analysis changes

My previous method of data measurements were to compare human results to computer results. There were the graphs i made for that.






As expected, computer generated results are all over the place and while i can draw arguments comparing human to computer results a lot of claims are to be taken for granted anyways. Human results will always have less extremes if the data collection is done properly. So ive decided to take it out of my research as it is redundant to compare human to computers AND humans to humans.

UE4Duino Test

First testing of streaming arduino data to unreal engine 4 using UE4Duino. Setup was fairly smooth with only a few issues with unreal reading the arduino. The way with ports on computer works is you have to add a close event to disconnect the port when the application closes, or else it will occupy the port even when not running. Streaming is successful but data needs to be processed as the plugin sends raw unformatted data in serial which also needs to be converted.  So far streaming works but data must be processed before applying it to any meaningful element in the experience.

As my project focuses on color psychology now Ive done some research on how different colors affect humans on an emotional level. Ive made some adjustments to my game such as adding a scoring system and other measuring variables that i will need for analysis in my thesis Accuracy is pretty easy to record, by measuring the amount of shots missed by the player and dividing it by the total score i can get the accuracy in percentage. This should work perfectly every time as theres no real hardware interference with things like the Arduino sensors. On the other hand, the GSR module finally came in the mail after being stuck in china for 3 weeks. Its pretty much useless at this point since time constraints and my project only focuses on heart rate now.

Week 8

After speaking with Ben, Alessandra and Nicole I've decided to change the direction of my project a little bit to better suit an architectural project. Right now ive decided to scrap the shooter game in favor for an architectural visualization VR experience. The basic idea is the VR experience shows the user a preset list of maps ranging from house interiors to large buildings such as offices. The goal is to use biometric readings to highlight areas that the user feels comfortable or irritated at. This provides feedback for future iterations. By implementing this into an architectural project it could potentially speed up the design process. Problem now is since my research has shifted a bit i will need to look at how geometry affects people on an emotional level.
