Hi there
I am looking for great museum examples of large scale touchscreen tables
that combine multi-user interaction with object recognition. The idea is
to augment physical props with digital information, i.e. placing an object
on the table brings up contextual information related to this object.
It seems the hardware of choice is Samsungıs SUR40
http://www.samsung.com/uk/business/business-products/smart-signage/speciali
sed-display/LH40SFWTGC/EN.
I have seen Snibbeıs Avatar SocialTable
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cjt0_FbVVzw and am aware of Microsoftıs
PixelSense table and Surface SDK
http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/pixelsense/default.aspx but I can only seem
to find quite dated projects and hardly any of these are in real-world,
let alone museum scenarios. Reactable http://www.reactable.com/ is cool
and comes quite close to what weıre after but is of course specialised on
music creation.
I have a creeping suspicion this tech already a goner and not worth our
while but I would greatly appreciate the groupıs thoughts on this type of
digital engagement and any examples or case studies to go with it.
Many thanks,
Nils
