Rethinking the Podium

摘要: As the use of rich media in mobile devices and smart environments becomes more sophisticated, so must design everyday objects used as controllers interfaces. Many new interfaces simply tack electronic systems onto existing forms. However, an original physical for a artefact, that integrates part form device, can enhance end-use experience. The Convertible Podium is experiment artefact with complex integrated meeting rooms. It combines highly designed look feel modern lectern allow it to serve central control station manipulation. interface emphasizes tangibility ease controlling multiple screens, sources (including devices) distribution channels, managing both data personal representation remote telepresence.
