    e Mobile Experience Lab focuses on creative andradical designs to recapture connections between people,information, and physical places, using cutting-edgeinformation technology to improve peoples lives throughmeaningful experiences.

    With a multidisciplinary team, we research and designnew technologies and explore their impact on spaces,communities and societies.

    Research topics:

    Technologies and services tofoster location-based connectionsand redene the user experience.

    Rethinking mobility,transportation, communication,and information networks.

    Designing for sustainability inurban and rural environments,

    and promoting sustainablecommunities.

    self-organizing bus system was a scenario in which the bus systemwould be able shed its traditionally rigid schedule and becomeintelligently selforganizing; reconguring the bus transformed busesinto mobile network nodes, so that passengers would be connectedfor guidance, entertainment and mobile work; electronic guimarddescribed a bus system with a traditionally distinct character, butenhanced through smart capabilities and electronic displays; theneighborhood concierge was thought to function as a landmark thatwould distinguish and characterize its neighborhood.

    institutions and citizens. In the Brazilian city of Porto Alegre, thesystem will be used as a journalist tool to help people report andspread around what is happening in the physical space aroundthem.is civic media experiment will enlist t he help of studentsof the Media Communications Department (FAMECOS) atPUCRS that will be protagonists of the deployment and eventuallyexpand the participation to the whole citizenship.e main objective of the project is to understand how mobilesocial networks could impact the city, its media representation andhelp people to stay i nformed.

    Locast consists in a articulated platform that can support the entire

    tourist experience, starting from the moment when you organizeyour visit until when you are back home, showing your souvenirs tofriends and parents. In particular, Locast tools improve each of the4 phases of the touristic experience: Organizing your trip, Traveling,Discover & Share, and Keeping in touch. e project focuses on theuniqueness of the Italian cities heritage superimposing a layer thatcorresponds to the shared media-based memory of the recent Italianpast: the RAI Archives. By taking advantage of the interactivity pro-vided by new media, RAI oers a powerful feedback channel to us-ers, which allows users to generate their own media, create their ownstories and, nally, to participate in the media production process.

    e system, with its main components of social networking,

    reputation management, referrals and geopositioning makes itpossible to coordinate the matching of drivers and passengers withpreferences entered online in user proles.e system can detect successful ride-shares and will reward par-ticipants accordingly, thereby providing an incentive to continueusing the system. In addition to promoting social sustainability, thesystem also serves to prevent driving under the inuence of alco-hol. e bracelet includes a breath-analyzer that tells users whenit is unsafe for them to drive and then, via t he link to the mobilephone, allows users to nd rides with drivers they trust.

    Near-Field Communication is a short-range high-frequency wire-

    less communication technology which enables the exchange ofdata between devices over approximately 10-cm distance. Currentusages include mobile ticketing on public transportation systems,mobile payment, smart postering, and bluetooth pairing.For this project, we imagined a future on usage scenarios of technology in the specic context of Campus, from theperspective of an student. As nal deliverable, we produced ascenario video including our vision.

    Social networking applications are becoming increasingly popu-

    lar among the population of all ages and social status. Mobiledevices, especially the newest generation with improved hard-ware and soware capabilities, are opening new opportunities toaccess information and diuse content. e distinction betweenthe virtual and the physical worlds is becoming fuzzier, promot-ing a new denition of space, social interaction and the physicalenvironment. e goal of the collaboration with Telefonica is tounderstand how the combination between social networks, loca-tion-based systems, instant blogging, emerging user experiencesand ubiquitous computing can determine the next-generation ofmobile-commerce applications.

    Trade shows are an extremely complex ecosystem, comprised

    of the o

    cial website, the physical location, registration desk,badges, turnstiles, booths, signate, walkways and atmospheres;even outside the show, its people interact with the city in which itis situated, with its people and cultural events. Within this context,the MEL is developing technologies and services to foster location-based connections and improve user experience during the tradeshows. We focus on innovation in four areas: registration, theentrance, the badge, and the virtual handshake, all with smart ap-plications for on-site and online use. Together these new conceptswill transform Pitti Immagines trade shows.

Imagine, you simply point your mobile phone ata building or landmark in order to access historical and culturalinformation. eLens users can post messages in physical locations,tag buildings and places, create social networks based on commoninterests and social empathy, and share information, opinions,experiences and passions. eLens interaction enriches the physicalenvironment; formal and institutional information are combinedwith informal communication and personal notes.

    e key component of our system is a network which allows usersaccess energy-related services--such as consuming, producingor transporting energy with a variety of devices--based on theirproles and interaction contexts. Here, energy is sourced or storedin a transaction-based model and priced-based on its source andavailability. Each time a user plugs a device to the network forthe duration of interaction, the cost, user prole and applicationcontext.

    was simple and stylish, consisting of a simple chip encasedin laser-cut leather. Users tapped their badge at an exhibitor to tagit for later, and if two users tapped their badges simultaneously ina virtual handshake, each would be sent the others business cardinformation. Later, users could visit a touch-screen kiosk to accessinformation about people and places they had tagged.

    In future scenarios of public transportation, the bus stop can bemore than the simple place where passengers and buses connect.

    With appropriate uses of information technology, the bus stop canserve as landmark and community rallying point, adopting newversions of the roles traditionally played by a cultural center ortown square. e MIT Mobile Experience Lab developed a proto-type of this new vi sion of the bus stop.

Since the roof is made out of cor-rugated metal sheets which gets uncomfortably hot in the summer.In this shelter a false ceiling made out of woven mats is utilized tokeep the space cool. e cows were the smaller body type and eachcow supposedly yields about 15 20 Kg of dung/ day.

    Beginning with a student workshop in the fall of 2008, the MobileExperience Lab identied a number of areas where mobile devices

    and television can intersect. Technological advances will allow fora new era of participatory journalism, where citizens collabo-rate with broadcasters to cover and disseminate news content.Entertainment programming can i nvolve audiences in new ways,such as multiple story-lines. rough concepts like location-basedcontent, broadcasters can give tourists new ways to participate inlocal cultures. Food programming can change as mobile devicescan accompany viewers to the store and kitchen. Finally, ubiqui-tous access to information, mediated by TV broadcasters, can helpviewers make more environmentally sustainable decisions.
