Abstract

Whilst researching directions to improve co-creation between knowledge workers using technology, it was found that brainstorming was an activity that might be improved upon. We designed an interactive system using multitouch technology. We have tried to leverage the advantages of such a system, especially during idea clustering. We have developed a video prototype of our system and validated the concept using focus groups. Feedback indicated an improvement over their current way of working.
