Interaction-Driven Escape Room Experience
Redefine the concept of the "Escape Room" using the principles of interaction design. This escape experience doesn't need to be confined to a room.
Imagine a scenario where puzzles, engagement, and intrigue are centered around a central structure. Craft a story and create an environment that captivates your audience from start to finish.

03 Story Line

NeuroTech Inc. seeks the erpertise of a skilled. We were pretty close to a breakthrough, but one of ourerperiments. Meema to hawe gotten a bit out of control. Probably nothing serious. Anyway, we really need some acientists with nerwes of steel who can perform under pressure.

KEY CLUE 1

Experiment Data Chip
- Laboratory PIN ID Card

The identity card of the laboratory scientist can only be unlocked by placing it in the correct place and entering the password of the correct personnel number.

KEY CLUE 2

Unlock Code - The Key for Survive

The key was divided into three parts and scattered in the mad scientist's laboratory. Only by collecting all the key fragments and merging them in the AI ​​synthesizer can the door to the outside world be truly opened.

KEY CLUE 3

Missing Scientist Recording

The key was divided into three parts and scattered in the mad scientist's laboratory. Only by collecting all the key fragments and merging them in the AI ​​synthesizer can the door to the outside world be truly opened.

Puzzle Design

10 puzzles | 720 combinations

Based on puzzle types such as logical reasoning, graphics and spatial awareness, sequential unlocking, narrative-driven, behavioural interaction, and mathematics, I designed 10 puzzles, including reasoning, pattern matching, code-breaking, storyline-based puzzles, arithmetic challenges, and equation solving. The code ensures that each group of players encounters a completely different puzzle permutations of three new combinations compared to the previous group, guaranteeing variations in the final puzzle's password.

Interaction Strategy

Multimodal Pose Sensing | Somatic Interaction System

The system diagram outlines a technological setup for real-time pose recognition and interaction. It utilizes a webcam to detect motion, quantity, and distance, feeding data into PC 1 where PoseNet Model and CreateCapture(VIDEO) are used for real-time gesture recognition. The data influences a projection system displaying a puzzle, dynamically adjusting based on detected inputs. A separate decoder system involving PC 2 uses object-oriented programming with functions like CreateEyes(), Perlin Noise/Noise()/Smooth() to manage interactive elements. Control inputs are facilitated by a joystick, interfaced with Micro.

P5.js /PoseNet

physical control

Python and servo mechanisms, allowing user inputs to influence the projected environment. This setup combines AI-based gesture recognition with physical control devices for an immersive, interactive experience.
