iart was nominated for the Design Preis Schweiz 2009 in the category ‘Communication Design – Research’. We proposed the so called ‘Interactive Cloud’, a media tool developed for exhibitions that allows an intuitive and playful access to a huge pool of objects and their context. The visitors just have to touch the virtual pictures or texts moving on a wall or show case to defold them and receive further information. The installation works with projection and camera recognition. The hardware is hidden on the ceiling. The award ceremony took place on 6 November 2009 in the ‘depot for design’ in Langenthal. The nominated and awarded projects were displayed there from 7 November to 20 December 2009.

The ‘Interactive Cloud’ was developed on behalf of the Swiss National Museum.

You will find pictures of all nominated projects here.
