Hard at work with idea generation


From the conceptions of the everyday in kindergartens gathered through empirical and theoretical research, we formulated different issues we found interesting. Along with the research on kindergartens, we investigated existing and possible ways to make use of sensors and technology more generally. The sensors, technologies and issues were listed and put into a pool, and from diverse combinations we developed more or less realistic and processed concepts. From twenty various concepts, we picked a few favorites that had for us more potential to explore. The selected concepts were about sensing each other within a group, and making children’s tiredness, hunger and pain visible for others.
