We have lived in a multi-screen era, but the interaction between various screens is still at a relatively low level. When mobile devices (mobile phones, tablets) interact with laptops and televisions, they simply project some content on them. Perhaps as a second screen, they provide additional information. Furthermore, mobile devices can be used as control devices like mouse and keyboard. In most cases, these interactions are often cumbersome and not very attractive. Ultimately, the screens are still isolated from each other.
When it comes to screen interaction, we think of Apple's IrPlay, Google's Chromecast, Microsoft's Xbox Smart Glass and Nintendo's Wii U GamePad, but THAW, the new project of MIT Media Lab, will eclipse them. THAW tries to turn the interaction between different screens into a seamless experience.
From the view of online video, whether the content interaction between mobile phone and notebook, or the manipulation of notebook by mobile phone, has become extremely simple, and the game display in video has fully demonstrated the potential of THAW. When playing games on laptops, mobile phones can be integrated into the game world at any time, changing the way the game is played. In the video, we can see that small animals jump from the laptop screen to the mobile screen, shrink their bodies on the mobile screen, and return to the laptop screen, so that they can pass through narrow channels.
THAW is the result of cooperation between MIT's Shilipp Shoessler (Tangible Media Group) and Sang-won Leigh (Fluid Interface Group). "We live in an increasingly electronic world, but the world is divided into many screens and interfaces," Shoessler said in an interview with fastcodesign. "Through THAW, the question we want to answer is how to combine these computer interfaces with screens to create simple, non-existent. The experience of sewing.
Technically, THAW is not very complicated, the key is to detect the location of the mobile phone. Mobile camera detects the color grid on the screen to determine its specific location. In order not to interfere with users, the development team managed to hide the grid.
Game takes up a long time in the videos produced by the development team, because Schoessler and Leigh believe that the original application of THAW might be in video games. Leigh, a fan of Super Mario, dreamed of Miyamoto using THAW to make cross-platform Mario games. Shoessler also expects THAW to make content sharing between different devices more convenient. "I hope it becomes the next Bump," he said.
