Nya sätt att navigera



Spelkonsolen Wii har lärt oss hur kul det är att navigera på ett mer dynamiskt sätt än med knappar och spakar. Nu har Kapor Enterprises utvecklat ett navigationssystem för Second Life där du styr din avatar med kroppen. En kamera registerar dina kroppsrörelser och omvandlar dem så att din avatar kan gå flyga eller hoppa. Betydligt mer intuitivt och genomgripande än mus och tangentbord.

SIME Friends nominated for an International Emmy



The company P, creative advisor to SIME07, is nominated for and International Emmy. The participatory drama The Truth About Marika, a co-production with Swedish Television SVT, is nominated in the category "Best Interactive TV Service" by The International Academy of Television Arts and Sciences.
The company P created a pervasive experience across many platforms. During almost a year over 100,000 participants tried to find the truth about Marika’s disappearance. Following fictious homepages, satellite maps and coded symbols accessed through mobile applications, the audience went deeper into the drama.

This is a great example of what the future of television could look like. The success of the production shows that the audience wants to participate, to break down the borders between life and screen.

Congratulations to the whole team!

More about SIME Innovation Day:
SIME Innovation Day is a by invitation only, free event for distinguished entrepreneurs. The objective is to create a meeting place for entrepreneurial companies and to open the doors to partnerships, investments and co-operations with our Co-Hosts (Ericsson, Google, Telenor).

The following criteria need to be met for all companies invited to participate:
  • High level of innovation
  • Clear end user focus
  • Large market potential
  • International growth potential
  • Skilled management
  • We prefer companies/products that are already established to those that soon will be
  • We prefer companies that either want to become convergent or already have convergent solutions
If you are such a company or if there is a company you know that meet the criteria, send an email to innovationday@sime.nu and we'll invite the company suggested, provided that there still is a spot open.
WHERE? Polstjärnan, Sveavägen 77, Stockholm, Sweden

Mobuzz.tv - Widgets and Netvibing in Sweden

Interview with Tarik Krim, CEO, Netvibes on the future of widgets.



"Stockholm: where the air is cold, the furniture is always stylish and not knowing the lyrics to ABBA:s dancing queen is an actual criminal offense".

I especially like the part where Dan demonstrates the infrared camera to find out whether someone is hot or not.
