I went on an exchange to Malmö, Sweden where I participated in two interaction design courses. This experience not only exposed me to new perspectives on design but also allowed me to refine my skills in a dynamic and collaborative, international environment.

Tangible and Embodied Interaction

Tangible and Embodied Interaction

Tangible and Embodied Interaction (TEI) is a type of interaction that aims to go beyond the traditional graphical user interface paradigm by creating experiences that engage our physical bodies and our abilities to comprehend and act in the real world. As a research area, TEI drives the development of innovative interaction technologies and methods that future designers will need to understand and anticipate in order to create effective designs.


We chose the topic Artificial Intelligence (AI) and the Internet of Things (IoT), which lead to the creation of "Breathing Flower".

The "Breathing Flower" project addresses the issue of sleep problems among university students through a design-focused approach. The project follows the Design Thinking framework called double diamond, with scientific research and surveys guiding the process. The result is an IoT and AI system comprising a nightstand device, a breathing companion, an AI assistant, and a computer application.

The breathing companion, Breathing Flower, monitors a user's breathing and guides them through breathing exercises. Its design is a glanceable version with light, which can be used before bed even in a dark environment. Through sensors, AI technology learns the user's breathing patterns and mirrors them by moving the petals of the flower in and out. Breathing exercises can also be performed together with the user. To promote good sleep hygiene and create a comfortable sleep environment, a humidifier with a soothing scent has been incorporated into the device.
