Tiles based interface from Sony

Filed under: Technology, Usability — kevinw @ 11:35 am

This movie [mpg] from Sony Japan shows some remarkably innovative technology at play. The user dynamically builds their interface with a number of tiles. Each tile looks to be about the size of a CD. They build their interface by selecting the tile of their choice, and placing it on a grid interface where the tile comes alive. I’m not sure this application is something I would use, but I like the idea. I’m sure there are many potential uses.
