Results

The Nomadic Media (NM) consortium has set up a usage scenario where the persona named Robert interacts with the technology that is under development by the participating partners. This scenario provides the framework for the demonstration of the results to the ITEA review board at the end of the project. The results will also be demonstrated to the Public Authorities and at conferences that enable Nomadic Media to disseminate its results to other Enterprises and Research Institutes that share interests in similar domains.  

The interaction between Robert and his technology has been made tangible by developing Human System Interaction Concepts. These concepts take the form of Flash demos that enable us to better understand how the future technologies will be used.

The scenarios take place in four different environments; therefore there are four flash movies that demonstrate the use of the technologies. Each flash movie shows the system (the technology) on the right hand side and Robert and his devices interacting with it.

The flash movies can be downloaded from below:
