Dushyant Sood: How interactive can a poster get? You ask this to Michael Robinson who is an employee of a London-based creative company called Agency Republic and he will make a Spotify based poster for you. This poster changes music tracks as you throw something on it. Interactive Poster by Michael Robinson The poster is made up of a knock sensor, some wires, a plug/socket and one Audrino Nano. Audrino nano is fitted into what is called as a Magic box. Magic box from both sides fixes a USB cable and knock sensor respectively. Hence the Spotify-based poster comes forth so that it can be used to change the tracks as it is hit by something. In case you are wondering about Spotify- it gives free access to millions of tracks in any device. The interactive poster by Michael Robinson has been hanged up at his office and is accessed by all his colleagues for entertainment purpose. As and when any employee throws a paper on the poster it changes any song being played at the moment. Interactive Poster by Michael RobinsonPoster by Michael Robinson Via: LaughingSquid
