Abstract

This paper describes the groundwork and use of the i|o cards, a tool developed to support the collaborative design of interactive objects involving people from different backgrounds. The cards bring physical computing basic concepts to a tangible level and can be adopted during hands-on workshops as a visual common vocabulary to illustrate and promote grounded discussions about interactive systems. From the many application possibilities, some of them are mentioned to illustrate the cards potential.
