New "toy" from MIT: Touch digitally

my informationModern means of telecommunications allow you to see and hear from great distances – but they can do nothing for the sense of touch. Scientists from the Massachusetts Institute of (MIT) decided to change that.

A group from MIT Media Lab has developed, the inFORM a table that can display the digital με έναν τρόπο που δίνει την δυνατότητα να γίνουν αισθητές με την αφή. Ένας υπολογιστής δημιουργεί τα δεδομένα με πλαστικές ακίδες που ανεβοκατεβαίνουν για να σχηματίσει ένα σχήμα 3D. Το Project περιέχει και έναν αισθητήρα του Microsoft Kinect για να ανιχνεύει τις κινήσεις ενός ατόμου.

As MIT's demo video shows, inFORM could be used by designers to physical models without 3D printing, by doctors to examine cross-sections and by students to visualize mathematical equations.
