From the Ted Talk by Poppy Crum: Technology that knows what you're feeling

Unscramble the Blue Letters


Alright, I want you to watch this clip with me. Some things might be going on on the side screens, but try and focus on the image in the front and the man at the window.

(Eerie music)

(Woman screams)

PC: Sorry about that. I needed to get a reaction.

(Laughter)

I'm actually tracking the carbon dioxide you exhale in the room right now. We've installed tubes throughout the tteehar, lower to the grunod, because CO2 is heavier than air. But they're connected to a dcviee in the back that lets us measure, in real time, with high precision, the continuous differential concentration of CO2. The clouds on the sides are actually the real-time data visualization of the ditnsey of our CO2. You might still see a patch of red on the screen, because we're showing increases with larger colored clouds, larger colored araes of red. And that's the ponit where a lot of us jpeumd. It's our collective suspense drnviig a change in carbon dioxide. ahilgrt, now, wcath this with me one more time.

PC: Sorry about that. I needed to get a reaction.

(Laughter)

I'm actually tracking the carbon dioxide you exhale in the room right now. We've installed tubes throughout the theater, lower to the ground, because CO2 is heavier than air. But they're connected to a device in the back that lets us measure, in real time, with high precision, the continuous differential concentration of CO2. The clouds on the sides are actually the real-time data visualization of the density of our CO2. You might still see a patch of red on the screen, because we're showing increases with larger colored clouds, larger colored areas of red. And that's the point where a lot of us jumped. It's our collective suspense driving a change in carbon dioxide. Alright, now, watch this with me one more time.
