Dense sensing for humane communications
February 4th, 2010 | 
Author: I am excited by a new project being undertaken by Pattie Maes’s group “Fluid Interfaces Group” at MIT. Titled ”ioMaterials”, it is an umbrella project encompassing a variety of collocated sensing-actuation platforms looking at various aspects of dense sensing for humane communication, memory, and remote awareness. Using dense collocated sensing actuation and sensing, we can change common objects into an interface capable of hiding unobtrusively in plain sight. Relational Pillow and TextureWall are instantiations of this ideal. In the visual below, we see Recorded writing: Playing back the strokes of the sender.
