a novel display interface that allows simultaneous collaborative actions by multiple people, while each user perceives an equally-valid view & no-one has a “master position” over the displayed information. projected objects can be passed around the sphere by different gestural actions.

applications include photo-browsing, geographical mapping, the navigation of live omnidirectional camera images & a pong game.

watch a demonstration video after the break.
