Description:

The Planar Manipulator Display (PMD) is a novel input/output device which enables simultaneous planar movement and sensing of multiple physical objects. It was built to test the hypothesis that interaction mediated by computer-controlled objects will improve understanding and collaboration in many types of simulations for which screen-based interaction is not optimal.
