WEATHER CAT

Aveen Nagpal, Katrine Gankin, and Ryan Pond

Weather Cat is an AI generated graphic that conveys the weather in a cute and concise manner. Most people check the weather everyday, wether it's by news, app, or even radio. It is an important tool for everyone. Weather Cat provides an alternative to these metric driven methods of conveying the weather, a more palatable approach. Instead of just providing data, Weather Cat conveys the feeling of the weather, so the user can start their day off with a cute pick-me-up instead of a wall of numbers. The picture frame like device pulls weather data and pictures of cats from the web, and using a pre-trained AI Model it combines them. The images it generates contain colors and shapes that convey data points like temperature, rain, cloud cover, and wind. Although not as accurate as metrics, the feeling of the weather is more than sufficient to judge how to dress. This means one less number to remember, and a clearer headspace.
