| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Physical media is a media that control the motion of one or many entities (movable entities) that perform simple actions. It is expected that a variety of visual and tactile expressions are possible depending on the movable entities' surface material, arrangement, and movement pattern. However, there are many physical restrictions on existing movable entities, so it is not easy to use them in daily life. On the other hand, Smart Hair (SH), a new type of moving entity proposed by the applicant, has fewer physical constraints than conventional moving entities and is expected to contribute to the diversification of expressions in physical media. In this study, we conduct a preliminary evaluation and functional improvement research of SH. Then, we developed variations of representations of physical media using SH to show the applicability of physical media based on SH technology.
