Ambient Object
The surface of a table as a tangible interface to
navigate through presentations. Once again, the
main idea was to take an ordinary object - a table
- which's function is clearand extend it with a
new (intelligent) value. So the challenge is to
obser ve, how would people act with this new
object - an ambient object. Will they take the
new functions for granted..? A shor t example
introducing the interface: if you want to play a
video in your presentation, you have to do the
following: On the table there lies a videocassette.
If you touch the cassette, the video starts to play.
So our goal is an intuitive interaction. That is to say if one moves or points on something,
the room system should be able to react.
Moodboard - Room for All Colors
Translation of room geometry into RGB color spectrum. Every room coordi-
nate has its own color. If a visitor moves through the space the room reacts
with color; from bright red to dark blue...
Dynamic Wallpaper
Inner Facade and Virtual Window, which describes the actual state of the room
in realtime according to frequency and fluctuation.
The pattern of the wallpaper is transformed through one‘s movement.
Dynamic Curtain
Interactive virtual curtain as OpenGL plane which allows one to move the curtain with-
out touching it. The immaterial interface and the paradigm of being without contact
is creating a further sensual perception - the non-touch sense....drop the curtain with
your movement.
07.2 Film-2-Go (2006)
Video Spaces
Accessible Movies
What happens if someone replaces the camera and uses instead his own body move-
ment..?
Participants of FILM2GO will develop a new genuine form of interaction between
immersive projection environment of the media laboratory no_LAb and the own body
