COLLABORATION IN SPACE
We implemented a research lab – the Value Lab, a new collaboration environment for virtual design and planning of architecture. It combined the use of complimentary views on high resolution computer displays with direct multi-touch content manipulation creating a streamlined working pipeline for the evaluation of design. Until the date, the Value Lab Space consisted of five large scale, high-resolution lcd-panels and two high-resolution projectors. Three lc-displays are wall mounted in a 1×3 layout interactive display wall and two are realized as one large interactive display table. Both the display row and the interactive table are equipped with multi-touch technology. The Value Lab was operational with the opening of the HIT building in September 2008.
