The Design Development and Installation:
Principles of “Buddha’s Sermon’’ Zone will be controlled by pressing and releasing a switch. The user will be instructed to sit down on the carpet and then the motion graphic will project up to the ceiling above the Buddha. The development was divided into four parts. First, Motion graphics content started by thinking of storyboard prior to structuring content to be presented in the proper position. Then, the motion graphic content was made with the motion editing software and the implementation work on size, width, space and the refining of final content needed for trial and fit on to ceiling. Second, Programming which had to work between motion graphics and coding by pre- paring a separate file for background, animation and objects. Next, working on Flash software called “Motion Detection” in conjunction with the sensors to capture the user. The next step was using an Ac- tion Script application which works flexibly and eas- ily by the method referred as the URL address mo- tion graphic. This section was coded so that it cannot be pressed repeatedly to play VDO until the motions have been finished playing then new visitor can par- ticipate. Third, the Hardware (Figure 16) which has been used is Projector, Controller and Computer.

Fourth, installation (Figure 17) which has to consider where to install equipment, especially projector which needs to be located at sufficient distance to project the motion in proper position to fit on to ceiling. The Projector Box’s holder needs to have enough room for cooling and not overheat when playing the con- tents. Moreover, the carpets must be installed care- fully because the cables and wires must remain safe and neat when the visitors sit on the carpets.
