Work

Inspired by a famous Chinese folktale “Legend of the White Snake” and our previous projects: Shadow Play and Shadow Art AI Experiment, “Shadow Art: Experience a Living Tradition” is a project we did for Google Arts & Culture to add a magical interactive experience to traditional shadow puppetry, using Deep Learning technology for hand gesture recognition.

We have exhibited “Shadow Art: Experience a Living Tradition” at WAIC 2019, GDD China 2019, WIC 2019, and also launched a web app version as a Google Arts & Culture Experiment. And for the latest exhibition, we brought Shadow Art to its origin: an actual shadow puppetry theatre in Wuzhen, China, to connect today’s people and state-of-the-art technology with the ancient art.

This project is a Web Application showcasing the Facial Landmark Detection using Tensorflow.js. We developed the Lipsync game for the user to sing along (using only the mouth shape input) and use Machine Learning to detect the mouth shape and calculate the score based on the accuracy of the player’s mouth shape.

“Lipsync” has been showed on the keynote stage and exhibited at Tensorflow World 2019 in Santa Clara, CA.

Track AI is a project we use machine learning models for Visual pathologies detection to examine and identify children with visual disorders as early as possible.

The visual system of humans is not fully developed at birth and gradually improves during the first few years of life. World Health Organi­zation estimates there are about 19 million children in the world su­ffering from visual impairment. However, 70–80% of them could prevent or treat it, if they have been detected with visual disorders in childhood.

Using an eye tracker with the patient, we could know which point of the screen that the patient is looking at, but analyzing gaze data of the patient is quite complicated, that is why we choose machine learning to help ophthalmologists to diagnose visual pathologies. We could collect data by performing various tests on the patients, and the ophthalmologist supervises this operation.

Thanks to DIVE, a visual examination device, we have lots of gaze data from children. We used that gaze data to feed into the ML model, and some tests also made use of the ASA (Accelerated Stochastic Approximation) algorithm to provide meaningful constants before using in the ML model. Outputs of the model are the probability of abnormalities for each eye and each pathology.

PLAY ME is an interactive installation simply explain how the core feature, Balance Sweep, works. Since the feature itself is quite complicated to understand, we design a way to explain it in a simple and magical way.

To begin with, in every month user generates income on ME MOVE account. With Balance Sweep, the feature will automatically transfer the remaining amount to ME SAVE account and allow user to receive an exceptional rate of interest. The user will be amazed with the amount saved on their account!

PLAY ME is designed based on user’s behavior. There are 3 actions to play;
First, generate your own income with Earning box by just spinning the handle. The more you spin, the more you earn! Second, save more money with Balance sweep feature. Customize your savings amount by interacting with the touch screen in front of you. Third, see your return. By opening the safebox, you will see how much more you can save with ME!

Identifying your spending habits with TOUCH ME!

TOUCH ME is a quick & easy to play touch screen game. Each round you will have to choose between two spending option within 3 seconds. The result of the game will reveal the type of spending habit you are! Amazed by the results, many players love to share the results on their social media. This emphasizes that ME digital banking is matched with their lifestyles.

Together with Pentagram, we developed a centralized app for Kathleen Grimm School for Leadership and Sustainability, a “Net Zero school”, aiming to make as much energy as it uses everyday. Our app displays information related to Net Zero such as the amount of energy the school generated and uses each day, the location of solar panels, electric bikes and various useful tips on how to conserve energy.

Information from sensors installed throughout the school is queried by the app installed on each floor. The app then display that information in an easy to understand yet stylish way. Although our app is designed to capture children’s interest, we also find that adults are also attracted to them too.
