Product Statement

With our product, we were seeking to communicate emotions with a simple button press to let loved ones know they are thinking of each other regardless of distance or schedule constraints. They’re also able to communicate whether they’re stressed and can respond with a soothing calm down message with blue light. We did this by installing a neopixel strip for color and button for communication to our breadboards that can communicate wirelessly via the particle cloud. We didn’t want to over complicate our interface with too many states and colors, so we kept it simple with a positive (yellow) state, negative (red) state, and a soothing state (blue) to help people get to the desired yellow state.
