Mood Light
Light changing according to room atmosphere
This project is based on the ideas that our frame of mind is always influenced by our environment, and the intensity of light in a room has a strong influence on the atmosphere. So why not make the light act according to the atmosphere in a conversation?
I used an SVM algorithm, to train a model with tagged conversation sound samples, indicating how relaxed the conversation is.
The sound in the room is recorded all the time and sent to the trained model every 3 seconds for classification.
The light is then changed according to the how intimate or angry the conversation in the room is.
