Break down of ClouB [Define]

[Update] - Added the Infographics from the Week 10 presentation for a better representation.

Aside from the App and visuals behind ClouB, there's a lot of technical aspect behind the idea.

So, recap. ClouB is a smart home system that gives the user feedback based on their bacteria cloud. Simple part.

Bacteria Collected + Read
The stones that make up the glowing mosaic designs on the walls are created with sensors embedded into them. These sensors are designed to read a person's bacteria by either reading the room around them at a passive rate or the bacteria landing on them. The sensors collect up the data like the PeerJ report on Bacteria Clouds, in September 2015, in a Petri-dish style.










With these mosaics being all around the room, the glowing design would follow the user around throughout their tasks, changing as they change and adapting to the users activities.

Data to the System
From the sensor, the system behind the glowing wall designs will read the bacteria it's picking up. Registering the different levels of each bacteria, categorizing them under the specific user (found in the bacteria itself, containing parts of a persons external DNA).

The system transfers all this information to a central hub within the home, keeping a record and transcribing the data ready for external output.


System to User
From the main hub, the data is sent out to two differing places:

Mobile
Transmitted through wi-fi to the users synced mobile device. ClouB will take simplified results from the scientific findings of the bacteria and split them into the categories of: Stress, Hunger/Thirst, Sickness, Personal Health, Mood, Hygiene, Sleep and Activity. Which the user can easily access via the app, for a quick update on how they're doing in their day to day life.

Cloud Storage
This is a possible feature, for an easier access to the users information for the likes of hospitals, doctors and alike. This can allow them to help a patient in a more detailed manner. By reading the results from ClouB, maybe then can foresee a problem that the user may not be aware of yet. Allowing for an early, quick and easy resolution to a possible sickness situation.

---

Technicals are not my strong point, but this is my idea for what ClouB actually is! A simple process that reacts with the user through luminescence in a passive, real-time - FUTURISTIC - aspect.

I feel it's a lot easier for me to explain via infographics, I'll have some done for my presentation in Week 10 which I will embed here afterwards.
