final blurb
My final will be a physical implentation of my thesis. I am building a Photo Blogging tool. it is a stuffed animal, Puffle, which a child will carry around with them. This toy will actually start as a child monitor which will be in the crib with the child. As the child grown the puffle will be there. It will be come the child's tranitional object.
As a monitor system there is a device which will sit on the parents night table or carried around with them. The device would have the same visual language of the puffle so when the child sees it they make the connection with their parent. The monitor will go off with a call from a sound sensor which tellls the parents the child is crying.
Also the puffle will have a second squeeze aspect which will send a sms to the parent or even a loved one's cellphone.
Between all of these points there is a server which stores and serves the images and comments about these images.
