We went to Columbus Circle on Friday morning, and tried the prototypes. We found that the balloon is too weak to stand for the place which is very windy. The balloon was almost on the floor because of the strong wind. However, we found that a boat with balloon can attract people, so we will try to find solution of the wind problem that disturbs our project. Also, we need to develop instruction board by scaling size bigger that can be caught people’s eyes. We will combine three ideas of each members; using little bits to attract people, using balloons and boats that people can write some messages on them and using catapult to encourage people to throw their pennies in to the fountain???(which means more “interact” with the environment and also our project.)
Here are pictures and video’s of our test-day.
I apologize for the bad volume of the interview.
