Interactive table
Interactive surfaces, welcome to the new world!
Imagine a virtual chemistry experience with test tubes that can be manipulated and directly as if they were real...
Imagine a bar which glasses light and communicate with each other when set on the bar surface...
Imagine a music instrument with new sounds and many people creating, playing and experimenting music all at the same time...
Imagine… because everything become (almost) possible!
The interactive table is a multi-user interface that offers a great number of applications.
The interactive table is a mixed reality device enabling interaction with virtual objects through the handling of real objects.
Thanks to the haptic feedback that occurs when touching physical objects, using interactive table provides a more intuitive and a more natural control of digital data.
When using the interactive table rather than a mouse, interacting with the multimedia content becomes easy and powerful. Moreover, several users at the same time can use this interface.
The interactive table is a new controller. These new man-machine interactions enable new ways of designing applications dedicated to training, creation, museums, communication, industry,....
The interactive table developped by Blue Yeti uses a technology coming from researches in computer music area, which result in the design of a new "tangible" music instrument, the Reactable, developped by Spanish researchers of Music Technology Group of Barcelona Pompeu Fabra University.
Here are some applications made and performed with the interactive table. If you wish to use this technology, we can develop custom made applications. Contact us to know more about interactive table!
