Real Time Knowledge Capture and Feedback in Design Workspaces
From The Theme SMART OFFICE WORKFLOWS WHAT IF What if we could capture knowledge and interactions in real time, in order to better understand team interaction and workflow? WHAT WE SET OUT TO DO We set out to develop a knowledge capture and reuse system that enables real-time analysis and feedback for design workspaces. Our […]
Designing Technologies that Mediate Human Social Interaction: Strategies for Effective Cooperation and Collaboration
From The Theme KNOWLEDGE WORKER PRODUCTIVITY WHAT IF What if we could develop a theory of “social affordances” (properties of technologies that shape online social interaction, personal judgment, and social decision-making) to better understand and even predict the effects of media design choices on behavior? WHAT WE SET OUT TO DO We set out to […]
Interaction Using Situated Spatial Gestures
From The Theme KNOWLEDGE WORKER PRODUCTIVITY WHAT IF What if we could improve interfaces for context, comprehension and human-machine performance, in order to develop machines that could sense and respond to people’s movements and behaviors? WHAT WE SET OUT TO DO We set out to improve human-machine interaction by enabling machines to detect and respond […]
High Speed 3D Shape Digitization Using Projected Light Patterns
From The Theme SENSING AND COMPUTING WHAT IF What if we could quickly determine and track the 3D shape of a moving or deforming object? WHAT WE SET OUT TO DO We set out to address one of the central problems in computer vision – the ability digitize an object at high speed. Rapid digitization […]
