Reflection

Aside from receiving horoscope-specific from ChatGPT, we achieved most of our technical objectives. We were able to read in a color, give the person's western and vedic sign, and give them a color-related prediction. However, I don't think we fully created the impact on the user that we wanted. The main issue was that the keypads were so sensitive, they couldn't take in an actual typed birthday because they read a bunch of other numbers in between. This meant the user could not really interact with the device and feel "spooked" at how much the device could predict about them. Although our housing for the device was quite pretty/spooky (in my opinion), we weren't actually able get the components in the housing to create clean and mysterious result. I think the project was received quite well, and interesting to the users because they were learning something new (their vedic sign), but those last few fixes would definitely be needed to fully satisfy our aspirations.
