More information about the new research studio NiCE can be found here. There is still place for companies to join this research project. For the next 3 years we will focus on novel large surfaces and new interaction techniques which are going to be embedded in our daily-life environment (e.g. living room, conference room etc.). In October, we will start setting up together with Team 7, Sony DADC and AMS Engineering a living room in the building of AMS Engineering. If you are interested in this research studio, please send me an email.

Currently, Jakob and Michael are visiting the National University of Singapore (NUS) for more than two months. Jakob is working at the Interactive Multimedia Lab performing an evaluation study for the IncreTable game, which will be demonstrated at SIGGRAPH 2008. Moreover, we will develop a light-version of our multi-touch and pen-based interface (FLUX). Finally, we also plan to set up a new co-operation and exchange programme with NUS (Mixed Reality Lab) and the Keio University (Japan).
We are proud to announce that we have won the “Deutsche Telekom Award” in the category “Young Talents” at this years FMX conference in Stuttgart. Our project “Comino” was chosen to be the best among the three nominees! We would like to thank the “Deutsche Telekom” and the organizers of the FMX conference for inviting us to Stuttgart and hope to see this prize next year again!
The Media Interaction Lab presents IncreTable at SIGGRAPH 2008 (August 11-15, 2008). The installation will be presented in the category “New Tech Demo”. IncreTable is a tabletop game inspired by the Incredible Machine. It provides a multi-modal interaction based on a bi-directional projection tabletop, digital pens, a depth camera, and custom-made physical objects, while attracting users for an active participation in creating content which diffuses the boundary between the real and virtual world. Kyungdahm Yun (GIST), Maki Sugimoto, and Prof. Masahiko Inami are supporting this project.
We are pleased to announce that we are organizing a come-together workshop on “Multi Touch Surfaces”. In this workshop, we plan to explore and discuss the latest research and new paradigms of Multi Touch Interfaces, including hardware and software issues.
