Makers use fabrication techniques like 3D printing and commodity electronics to create the physical enclosures for digital interactives. They often work alongside Developers to integrate exhibit effects into interactive activities.
Designers work closely with Makers during the fabrication of the final interactive.
This can include selecting colors, textures and finishes for embedding the interactives into an exhibit.
Developers and Makers work together to integrate software and hardware, such as controlling exhibit lights or effects from an interactive.
Makers work with Facilitators to improve the setup flow of interactives and gain insights into visitor interactions.
Makers work with Educators to create physical interactive metaphors that can be used to reinforced educational concepts, such as moving or arranging objects.
Makers work with Organizers to keep everyone informed of their project status between workshops.
Makers work with Visitors to gain insights into how physical interactives are actually used.
Quick references for makers, like building a POP kiosk or integrating exhibit effects into activity types.
