Ambient Communication

AMBIENT COMMUNICATION®

driving behaviours

Ambient communication is a hybrid form of spatial interaction that is simultaneously digital and physical, made possible with technology and concepts rooted in human biology.

Humans have considerable ability to process non-linguistic contextual
environmental information. This directly affects subconscious feeling and perception, without the need to activate cognitive thought processes.

By introducing meaningful digital feeds to our built environments through ambient communication, we enhance and extend our conscious and subconscious awareness of what is going on around us.

Ambient Communication harnesses

peripheral vision and pre-attentive processing

to create intuitive environments.

UNDERSTANDING THE SKANDAL SYSTEM

CONTEXTUAL INPUT

Sensor data and Online data is collected to act as triggers for live content generation.

CONTENT GENERATION

Data is analysed and parameterised to trigger generative content engines in real time. Digital content is created continuously by visual algorithms and mapped onto the output devices.

OUTPUT

The content is converted into light and served into the space either through our lighting solutions or 3rd party lighting system.
