human interaction.


As outlined by the Department of Health and Ageing, studies have shown that an involvement in community reduces mental health issues and improves overall quality of life.  We aim to create a mobile device which encourages people to occupy outdoor communal space as this will encourage human interaction and establish an increased sense of community which is currently absent from our cities. The proposed solution will entice people to step out of their homes and offices and into these shared spaces improving among many other issues, mental health.  The presence of green space in these urban environments will provide landmarks to establish meeting points within the city to contribute to this improved human interaction.  One such way of solving this problem would be to project mobile imagery onto building facades of people interacting with green space, nature and other human beings to encourage people to step out of their homes or office for some fresh air in a communal space.
