Interactive Tangible

thingiverse

This model was showcased at the Muc2019 conference in Hamburg as a poster. You can download it from https://dl.gi.de/handle/20.500.12116/24660. To empower researchers with the freedom to explore active tangibles across various tabletop environments, researchers need intuitive and cost-effective rapid prototyping tools. The Kniwwelino platform serves as the foundation for these active tangibles, utilizing a microcontroller-based development system that enables wireless connectivity via WiFi and allows for programming in Arduino or through a block-based visual language. In addition to their use in collaborative tabletop settings, these devices can also be employed for standalone applications, facilitating the creation of custom smart home devices or robots controlled by MQTT messages.
