IAP 2003 Activity


Ubiquitous Computing Design Contest
Stephen Intille, Claudio Pinhanez
Mon Jan 6, Thu Jan 9, 04-06:00pm, NE18-4FL (1CC, 4FL), Directions on website

Enrollment limited: advance sign up required (see contact below)
Signup by: 05-Jan-2003
Limited to 15 participants.
Repeating event. Participants welcome at any session
Prereq: Expertise in either Flash, HTML, Java, or C

In this design contest students will work individually or in teams to design a persuasive future computing application that uses ubiquitous sensing and display technologies. Each group will use the House_n: the MIT Home of the Future Project's ubiquitous living room to create a working application or convincing demonstration of an innovative, home-based future computer interface. The environment gives the designer incredible freedom when designing applications: information can be displayed on any surface, interacted with on any surface, and change automatically based on how people interact in the environment. Teams will present their projects at the end of IAP in a session and IBM will award a prize to one outstanding idea.
