Interaction Design, Project One, Blog Ten

Project One Complete!

Below is a brief description on my experiment and how you use it. I have also included by 8 images giving step by step visual instructions on how to use it, plus closeup details.

'The Hand Stabber' explores the senses touch and sight by testing the users ability in determining where something is expected to touch by seeing it, and where something actually touches by feeling it. This experiment has looked at trying to trick the user into expecting a touch in one position of the hand but getting it in another, it also tests whether the user can determine where they were actually touched. The user wont ultimately get a pleasant experience, but more of a surprising experience if 'The Hand Stabber' is used correctly.


Instructions:
  1. Insert hand into the front hole putting it in as far as you can, keeping it flat to 'The Hand Stabber' interior floor/platform.
  2. Insert the piece of wire provided into the hole at the top of 'The Hand Stabber' slightly then poke/stab it down towards your hand keeping completely vertical(this step can either be performed by the user or a fellow assistant)
  3. Remove hand and wire from 'The Hand Stabber', the experience is now complete
