Photovoltaic cells integrated into the canopy capture and store solar energy during daylight hours. Through
an automated system, the accumulated energy is
distributed into LED lights located on the swings.
Moreover, accelerometers installed within each swing
directly respond to the acceleration forces and tilt
exerted by users.
When the swings are not moving, they emit soft white
light, thanks to the energy collected during the day.
As the swings increase in momentum from a static
position, a microcontroller adjusts the LED output
through a gradient scale from white blue to purple.
The responsive elements of Swing Time invite users
to interact with the swings and with each other. The
overall theme of Swing Time is to entice people of all
ages to engage in active public play.
Public play creates a community laboratory and raises
awareness of energy consumption and production.
