What's the Enki LED Strip

           ENKI LED STRIP With ENKI Engery

Data visualization for a biodigester in a communal kitchen in Amersfoort, to support the cooking process and raise awareness for the system.

A biodigester is a machine that digests bread into methane through a biological process with bacteria. The obtained methane powers the communal kitchen in a housing complex in Amersfoort. As the system is very technical, it is not apparent to the residents how much methane is left in the tank for cooking. The goal was to make this data visible to the residents and sensitize them to the connection between the bio-digester and the kitchen.

In their ideation process, we connected a light concept as an omnipresent indicator for the charge of the tank, with a more indepth and informative mobile application. We use anLEDstrip to connect the biodigester spatially with the kitchen and tablet. The length and color of the LEDstrip are changing due to the gas's consumption and indicate the current status in live data visualization. On the tablet, the user will get further information about the states and general information around the bio-digester, which even includes an explanation video.

Physical Prototyping

To understand the impact of light on our concept, we built a prototype with an Arduino Leonardo and LEDstrip. We brought this prototype to Amersfoort to test it with the residents and implemented the feedback in the next iteration.
