The Holo Flower is a real-time data visualization interface displayed in Augmented Reality holography for cross platform, including on digital devices like smartphones and tablets, and large scale projection. The input data of the flower is based on real-time biometric data and EEG signals from the Brain Activity headband. The concept behind the Holo Flower is to unroll and visualize vulnerable details of daily brain events.
As passive data sensing become widely accepted for wellness and mental health purpose, many wearable technology products gain rapid market shares. Recently the enthusiasm of wearable technology is clearly booming. The vision of this study is to discuss possibilities of a shifting purpose from individual based product to a further community for intuitive knowing.
Yiqi proposed a three-stage approach to data sharing that emphasizes privacy, security, and user control, and blended it to data visualization of this mixed reality brain interface.
Encrypted Sharing Vessels: Protect sensitive data with encryption, ensuring only authorized access.
Lateral Hierarchy: Categorize data into environmental collections, wearable device data, and invasive brain activities for efficient management and user control.
Longitudinal Hierarchy: Organize data into passive infrastructure, socio-economic data, and active personalized needs to respect privacy and benefit communities.
