Abstract

In this paper, we describe our 'Formal Demonstration Presentation' and provide background information on the video published in the video proceedings. The presentation provides an account of the development of the second generation of roomware© components based on our experiences with the first generation. The redesign, resp. new design and implementation resulted in a comprehensive environment consisting of several different roomware components and software facilitating new forms of human computer interaction and cooperation. We present the second generation consisting of: DynaWall, InteracTable, CommChairs, ConnecTable, and the Passage mechanism, together with the corresponding software BEACH, PalmBeach, and MagNets.
