His research interests also include networks, lighting design, the environmental and social impacts of technology development, and monkeys. He has written four books and a number of articles related to electronics and physical interaction. He is a co-founder of Arduino, an open-source microcontroller environment. He has consulted for various museums and interactive design companies as well. He hopes to visit Svalbard someday. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Courses taught: <br><\/strong>Intro to Physical Computing <br>Understanding Networks <br>Tangible Interaction Design <br>Light and Interactivity <br>Connected Devices and Networked Interaction <br>Wildlife Observation Tools: Interaction in the Wild <br>Studio (Physical Computing) <br>Sustainable Practices <br>Networked Objects<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Email: ti8@nyu.eduWebsite: https:\/\/tigoe.com ARTS PROFESSOR Tom Igoe is the area head for physical computing courses, in which students learn to consider the motivations and actions of the people for whom they&#8217;re designing as the foundation for physical interaction design.
