Lilian Hiu Wai C and Sin Yi Betty C's Bento Mouse Heck Project

Our project is called Bento, which stands for lunch box in Japanese. We created our project with really food with facial expression that would scream "Your evil", "Stay away from me", "awww" and etc when they are poked with a fork. We were trying to avoid simple button pressing, therefore Bento involves the users to apply pressure on the food to pick them up, which triggers the button to play the audio files. The reason why we decided on creating the lunch box was to test if the users will feel for the objects when it expresses emotions, even though it is not really living.
Here is the inside part of the bento. 2 buttons replaced the original mouse left and right buttons, and 8 springs to support the platform.
