Showcases

Here are a few examples of the kind of research we have carried out in recent years, which should give some indication of what we have planned for the future.

IVE

Public displays have become ubiquitous in urban areas. They can efficiently deliver information to many people and increasingly also provide means for interaction. Designing, developing, and testing such systems can be challenging, particularly if a system consists of many displays in multiple locations. Deployment is costly and contextual factors such as placement within and interaction with the environment can have a major impact on the success of such systems. In the course of our research we developed a new prototyping and evaluation method for public display systems that integrates augmented panoramic imagery and a light-weight, graph-based model to simulate such systems. Our approach facilitates low-effort, rapid design of interactive public display systems and their evaluation. Github repository Publication

Ethermap

Ethermap is a real-time collaborative map editor allowing: synchronization of geoobjects between all users, visual highlights of changes creating user-awareness, watching other users or show their current workarea, basic feature version control (browse older revisions and revert changes), and, communicating about specific features within the chat.
