    Static 360° images are well-known but a running 360° video is new and quite beautiful – here you can ride a gondola in Venice. World’s First 360º Gondola Ride In Venice, Italy (Flash required)

  • Interactive Plants

    Disney again! This time, plants are used to act as capacitive sensors. Add some augmented reality and the result looks quite cool. Source: Disney Research

  • Delites Automate

    An interactive installation made easy: all you need is a display, a button, and potato chips. :-)
