Penumbra: Tangible UI using Interactive Mirrors
A presence responsive mirror using polarised light embodied ephemeral reflection
Penumbra is a Tangible User Interface that explores how light can act as a medium for interaction. The installation investigates embodiment through material and optical behavior. By rethinking reflection as a spatial dialogue between body and matter, it transforms the act of seeing into a tactile experience.
