Next Generation Paper Project: Creating Personal Augmented Photobooks
01 January 1970
The Next Generation Paper Project aims to connect paper to web by developing new paper technologies, revolutionising how books are read, and information is consumed. It will do this by developing new augmented paper technologies to connect paper to any digital media type (i.e. sound, video, imagery). The study's aim is to to collect feedback on the user experience of creating augmented personalised photobooks with new paper technologies.
