At the lab, JB Haué and Guillaume Raymondon are working on a very interesting project: a noise-sensitive table. There is a blog about the project there. The table is meant to perceive nearby users' noise and diplay various things based on it (by LEDs or a beamer). Currently the prototypes are really ROUGH (but nice from my point of view, maybe it's because I like this sort of 'bricolage picture'):
Why do I blog this? We will ask students of our Computer Supported Collaboration Work course to test various configurations with it, that's why I follow the project closely. I am looking forward to see what will happen
