JemJem: Tactile Communication

"Action: JemJem" is inspired by the traditional Korean gesture "jem jem," where parents repeatedly clench and unclench a baby's hand to encourage hand mobility and communication. This project explores how such simple yet meaningful actions can be translated into visual communication through a tactile device. Using TouchDesigner, Arduino, and tactile device, the design encourages repetitive actions of holding and releasing, making it suitable for individuals with handy-scale capabilities.
