  • Pins -
    Pins generates dynamic three-dimensional geometries within a tabletop environment serving both as volumetric display and co-spatial input device. Our goal is to liberate otherwise static everyday objects and surfaces with intelligent materials that
  • IP Network Design Workbench is a system to make performance simulation tools more accessible to a group of experts during the IP Network design process. Using TUI, it became possible to control multiple simulation parameters directly and in
  • plastic trade-off -
    in cooperation with Gerald Nestler --- plastic trade-off is a light sculpture as well as a virtual knowledge space. It visualizes global financial markets and thus a core element of global economy. plastic trade-off could be described as a
  • in cooperation with: Gerald Nestler (Research), Christof Cargnelli (Sound), Oliver Irschitz (Production) --- I treat Wittgenstein's propositions more like axioms. When I negate the axiom, 'We make ourselves a picture of the world'
  • mirrage -
    in cooperation with Peter Szely (Sound) --- mirrage is a virtual mirror which perpetuates and alienates the spatial architecture of the sound art series Tonspur - the virtual space infinitely mirrors the architecture and triggers sounds when
  • Super Cilia Skin -
    Super Cilia Skin is a multi-modal interactive interface, conceived as a computationally enhanced membrane coupling tactile-kinesthetic input with tactile and visual output. An array of individual actuators (cilia) use changes in orientation to
  • Plant Sensors -
    Plants are very common in our world and and contain a vast amount of information. Although there are open debates about the intelligence of plants, it is undeniable that plants have a great ablity to sense and respond to their environment. The
  • Vehicle Safety Sensor -
    "We have built a low-cost ($10) 2.4 GHz Wireless safety sensor for vehicles. This transceiver and antenna mounted to the driver-side car door could prevent dangerous and costly traffic accidents or personal injury to bicyclists and other motor
  • The Tangible Video Browser provides a tactile and efficient interface for viewing digital videos. Tokens act as both containers for a set of videos and controllers for selecting a video and navigating within the video. Placing a token on the
  • Phoxel Space -
    Phoxel-Space is an interface to enable the exploration of voxel data through the use of physical models and materials. Our goal is to improve the means to intuitively navigate and understand complex 3-dimensional datasets. The system works by
