Programmable Droplets / Udayan Umapathi
Water is the medium that carries chemical and biological information. It is fundamental for survival and evolution of life. From walking in the rain to working in laboratory - water is ever present and thus important from human-interaction standpoint. It is also safe to directly touch and consume by humans. Our goal is to use this natural medium, to represent data through calm, ubiquitous computing interfaces that leverage the users intuitive knowledge of the world. Hence, we have created the “Programmable Droplets” system that can use droplets in our environment and program them for information manipulation and human interaction.
