It provides users with the possibility to arrange and position tokens on a surface, representing a 3D scene. A tabletop projection augments the surface of the table by a map, which provides a bird&#8217;s eye view of the site. A vertical projection renders the scene against a background, which is produced by either a real time video stream, a panorama image of a site or a see-through installation. Objects of the mixed-reality world can be modified and adapted in scale, transparency, color, and offset to the ground. The ColorTable will be placed inside the MR Tent. It can be used in combination with the <a href=\"http:\/\/studierstube.icg.tu-graz.ac.at\/ipcity\/sketcher.php\">Urban Sketcher<\/a>.<\/li>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/ipcity.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/10\/tent-4.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-253\" title=\"tent-4\" src=\"https:\/\/ipcity.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/10\/tent-4-300x199.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"199\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ipcity.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/10\/tent-4-300x199.png 300w, https:\/\/ipcity.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/10\/tent-4.png 362w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>The CityWall (<a href=\"http:\/\/www.citywall.org\/\">www.citywall.org<\/a>) is a large multi-touch display which acts as a collaborative and playful interface for the ever-changing media landscape of the city. The CityWall is designed to support the navigation of media, specifically annotated photos and videos which are continuously gathered in realtime from public sources such as Flickr and YouTube. Using a series of intuitive gestures users can navigate and arrange media as if they were manipulating physical pictures, and beyond: they can also shrink, stretch, and rotate images as well as access more from a timeline of images corresponding to the date they were uploaded. The technology enables that several people can interact directly with display at the same time; the maximum number of people who can interact is limited only by physical space.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>CONTRIBUTORS<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Technical University of Vienna<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Ina Wagner, Lisa Ehrenstrasser, Gammon, Michal<br \/>\nIdziorek, Val\u00e9rie Maquil, Mira Wagner<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Helsinki University of Technology HIIT<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Ann Morrison, Jari Kleimola, Rodolfo Samperio, Peter<br \/>\nPeltonen, Giulio Jacucci<\/li>\n<li>Tommi Ilmonen (<a href=\"mailto:tommi@multitou.ch\">tommi@multitou.ch<\/a>)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Graz University of Technology<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Dieter Schmalstieg and Markus Sareika<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Universit\u00e9 Paris-Est, Equipe LTMU<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Jean-Jacques Terrin, Burcu Ozdirlik, Maria Basile,<br \/>\nSevasti Vardouli<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>University of Applied Arts Vienna<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Andrea B\u00f6rner, Reiner Zettl<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>European City of Science is the major science exhibition in Europe in the year 2008.
