Abstract

Pileus is the Internet umbrella which augments experience in rainy days. It was designed to couple embodied interaction and social function on the web. It has a built-in camera, a GPS and a large screen under surface of an umbrella to cooperate with photo-sharing service on the internet (Flickr) and 3d-map navigation (Google Earth) in a city. In this paper, we describe that; Pileus is a medium with walking activity to interact with information embedded in a city by metadata.
