Featured Projects

We are developing a suite of media experiences to introduce visitors to the rich cultural and economic history of Auburn Avenue. From about 1900 to 1960, Auburn Avenue was the center of African-American cultural and economic life in the city. The street also played a key role in the civil rights movement. From the 1960s on, the street suffered decline, and the local community disintegrated because of a range of social, economic, and urban planning factors.
Warehouses throughout the world distribute approximately $1 trillion in goods per year from nearly a million warehouses. Order Picking is the process of collecting items from inventory and sorting them into orders for distribution. It represents one of the main activities performed in warehouses. About 60% of the total operational costs of these warehouses is order picking. Most are still picked by hand, often using paper pick lists.
How might we create confidence and increase communication to riders of a public transportation system? This project is focusing on creating an interactive display and experience for riders of the Georgia Tech Bus system. The goals of this display is to provide multi-sensory, at-a-glance information about the bus system in relation to the station's current location, while also providing more detailed information on closer inspections for users that wish to make a more informed decisions around using the bus.
