Physical Computing

Physical Computing

Physical Computing bedeutet im weitesten Sinne, interaktive, physische Systeme durch die Verwendung von Hardware und Software zu erstellen. Diese Systeme reagieren auf Ereignisse in der realen, analogen Welt und/oder wirken auf sie ein. Obwohl diese Definition auch auf automatische Verkehrskontrollsysteme zutrifft, wird sie in diesem Zusammenhang nicht verwendet. Unter Physical Computing werden Systeme verstanden, die sich mit der Beziehung zwischen dem Menschen und der digitalen Welt befassen. Der Begriff wird meistens für Projekte mit einem künstlerischen oder Designhintergrund oder für Do-it-yourself-Hobbyprojekte verwendet. Dabei werden Sensoren und Mikrocontroller verwendet, um analoge Eingaben Software-Anwendungen verfügbar zu machen und/oder elektromechanische Geräte, wie Motoren, Servos, Leuchtdioden oder andere Hardware steuern.
