e-Puzzle (Dynamic Interactions - Media Lab Europe) - 2001/2002

 

< e-Puzzle is a mobile peer-to-peer application developed on WiFi-enabled PDAs.
Up to four people can play a game where they need to swap (through bids) pieces
of a puzzle in order to win. Two different visualizations are being projected on large
displays, in order to provide information to the players on the game progression.

The project is meant to explore how people in physical proximity can interact with
each other through their personal devices when they have to keep a competitive
behaviour, and how this behaviour is influenced by information being publicly
displayed in different forms.
