Open Screen Project

Eric Snowden — Tue, 17 Aug 2010 21:52:37 +0000

This may have been up for a while, but it’s new to me. We’ve been working closely with Adobe for a few years on their multi-screen initiatives and are now officially a member of the Open Screen Project. Were listed among some pretty impressive partners and are glad to be part of the project.

In addition to this, we are part of a concept video on the OSP homepage. The first video in the carousel titled “Fun with Friends” includes a conceptual mockup of what our AIR Application Fanbase could look like in the future. It’s just a concept at this point, but is fun to see. The folks at Adobe did an amazing job putting this together.

Incredible Mobile Interfaces

Some pretty amazing mobile interfaces from UI and graphics studio TAT (The Astonishing Tribe). They are a Swedish firm that already has work on 270 million devices. If you think the panacea for mobile design is located in Cupertino, these videos may make you think different.

TAT Augmented ID

Augmented ID is a TAT concept that visualizes the digital identities of people you meet in real life. With a mobile device and face recognition software from Polar Rose, Augmented ID enables you to discover selected information about people around you. All users control their own augmented appearance, by selecting the content and social network links they want show to others. Modifying your augmented ID is easier than fixing your hair in real life and, of course, TAT Cascades will make sure you look great!

JuggleUI

Multitasking can be a natural and useful part of the user experience. Juggle UI allows users to conveniently get an overview of all open apps. By using touch surfaces outside the screen, it is easy to switch between different applications and to transfer content between them. The user can access the open applications at any time by swiping a finger over the touch surface to the right. Content can be copied and stored on a clipboard and accessed at any time by swiping a finger over the touch surface to the left.

Nexus

A TAT Cascades powered demo with a range of new exciting features; portrait and landscape effects, widgets, touch unlock, dragndrop and LinkFlow. It is easy to differentiate still based on the same underlying application code – allowing for a lot more extensive customization within the same development time.

Glassy

This demo shows how you can have attractive UIs work, with excellent performance, on mid-range platforms. Giving you the ability to spice up your UIs on legacy platforms and a platform that from scratch has been designed and optimized to be CPU and RAM efficient. It pushes FPS performance without the need for hardware acceleration

TAT Foldout UI Demo

This 3D demo was developed by TAT for Mobile World Congress 2009 in cooperation with Texas Instruments. Foldout UI is a Cascades implementation on the Texas Instruments OMAP3430 platform, using Open GL|ES 2.0 and hardware acceleration. The demo shows a unique utilization of 3D in combination with touch input. It challenges traditional UI paradigms with its flip-through navigation and foldout design. Realistic materials, physics, shaders and other effects give a real-life experience to the GUI.
