Wearable

HKU/TNO

The fashion industry is changing and growing awareness of environmental and personal health issues make it important for the industry to individualize their products. Adding a technical function to clothing is one option, which was the research question for an interdisciplinary group of students. The Wearables project researched and developed concepts in which the target group (youngsters from 8 to 11 years old) were stimulated to exercise more and develop their social networks. The results are a shoe, the F.A.T.S., and a netwerkcoat: My Coat.

iPack

Mobile Bristol Toolkit

iPack is a project group that has developed content in a game form for the Mobile Bristol Toolkit (a software tool developed by Hewlett Packard allowing developers to create GPS enabled mediascapes’) that runs on an iPAQ. They created an immersive interactive story that critically examines the implications for privacy that new ubiquitous technologies present.

Lifelink

Telematica

Lifelink; an interactive installation that features a playable simulation. This simulation is a representation of a city in the year 2010, a time in which our daily lives are made more productive and fun thanks to Freeband and 4G technology. Users of the installation will find out what Freeband is and, above all, discover what makes Freeband interesting for them at a personal and professional level. The installation has been designed for deployment and usage on demonstration floors during
conventions and meetings. It is operated on a PDA and shown on a big screen.
