Why? – attract interest using curiosity factor.When? – whenever the market is active.Who? – passers by, general public, supervisor.Where? – Brown Thomas, live feed to the MilkMarket.How? – Place a plasma TV in the shop windowSet up motion sensors behind the glassRecord a number of interviews with people at the

market.Playback on standby with sound, live-feed when

Interactive Shop Screen in the Brown Thomas window

What? - Interactive Map of the Milk Market

Why? - to provide spatial assistanceWhen? - when ever the market is activeWho? - people, supervisorWhere? - market entrancesHow? - Assign and place RFID tags for each stall Map them onto an interactive map (Flash/Director)Place large touch screen displays at the entrancesSimple but effective interface

What? - Medieval vs Modern.

Why? - to revive the original charm, add ubiquitous tech. When? - when ever the market is activeWho? – stall owners, café managers, market ownersWhere? – all over the market areaHow? – replace the existing stalls with wooden ones,

place awooden statue/structure with motion sensors and

interactivegames for the kids.Small LCD’s , Joy pads, Flash-Games about healthy food.Motion sensors to activate audio and video response.

Medieval Style would add to the atmosphere and enhance the overall aura.

Wooden tables and cutlery in the café’s.

What? – Bike Powered Interactive A.V. Display

Why?- promote the market and give public a taste of the

market experienceWhen? – whenever the market is activeWho? - aimed at general public and tourists.Where? - installation could be located on a nearby

street. How? - Audio/Visual display of the milk market, using

eitherlive or recorded footage

How?- installation of bicycle and an A.V. display Live/recorded footageOn the users arrival the screen will either be blank or contain a still image. The installation will be set up so as the bike is facing the display suggesting to the user how to operate it.Once the curious user begins to pedal the bike, hence turning the fan/propeller (attached to the back axel) - activates a wind sensor. The picture displayed on the screen will be dependant on the intensity of pedalling, slowing/increasing the speed of playback or improving the reception if in Live-Mode.

Playback-Mode: PD or Director driven by wind sensors.Live-Mode: Gaussian filters PD or Director .

What? – Milk Market Portal

Why? – to attract curious by-passers on a busy street

“I feel the market deserves more attention, as its one of limericks finest attractions” – milk market shopper

When? – when ever the market is activeWho? – general public, supervisorsWhere? – busy street like cruise’s street/shopping centreHow? – setup a light weight structure with one or more screens (plasma/LCD) in the middle of a busy town area and setup a direct live feed (radio freq.) to the camera’s placed in the market. The user will be able to switch between the different camera angles by pressing large buttons beneath it.

Positions of the Cameras for the Milk Market Portal

What? – Interactive Portal between Milk Market and Cruises street

Why? – to attract curious by-passers on Cruises street and milk Market customers

“ As a cultural focal point the market does not get enough attention, its not even advertised in the tourist office ” – milk market stall owner.

When? – when ever the market is activeWho? – general public, supervisors

Where? – busy street like cruise’s street/shopping centre

How? – The physical structure of the portal will be the same size or just slightly smaller that a phone box. (Roughly 7x4 foot) The two structures will have three screens such as AL1916W LCD Monitors and a rotation wheel which will be built into the construction of the box and around the circumference of the structure.

A rotator web cam will be set up at the top of each of the structures transmitting live feeds from structure a (the portal in the milk market) to portal b (the portal in cruises st.).

The camera used will be the 360 Degree Camera – currently being used in Sony’s 360 degree security camera.  This camera provides simultaneous 360 degree view of your environment.  The Chip Wrights architecture was used to replace a Pentium class Personal Computer to provide real time processing of a 360 degree image. The software does all the image processing and the de-warping of the image and then displays it on a Monitor or TV (NTSC or PAL), streams the data across USB. This actually creates a live portal between the two areas in the city.

The Interactive Milk Market portal will have a 360 degree camera mounted at the top to monitor the activity around the portal. This picture will then be transmitted via radio signal to the Plasma TV mounted in the Brown Thomas window. This will ignite the curiosity of the people at the bus stop, that will attract the public to go to cruise’s street and see what it’s all about, and hence add more curiosity to the portal and the market itself.
