Andy Wilson. Pictionaire: Supporting Collaborative Design Work by Integrating Physical and Digital Artifacts This paper introduces an interactive tabletop system that enhances creative collaboration across physical and digital artifacts.
Pictionaire offers capture, retrieval, annotation, and collection of visual material. It enables multiple designers to fluidly move imagery from the physical to the digital realm; work with found, drawn and captured imagery; organize items into functional collections; and record meeting histories. These benefits are made possible by a large interactive table augmented with high-resolution overhead image capture. Summative evaluations with 16 professionals and four student pairs validated discoverability and utility of interactions, uncovered emergent functionality, and suggested opportunities for transitioning content to and from the table.

OpenIDEO - Home. Eric Von Hippel on Innovation. Eric Von Hippel has long been an advocate of user-led innovation but it is not always clear what user-led innovation really means.
A newly released study on consumer innovation by Von Hippel reveals more than you might think. Haydn Shaughnessy delves deeper.. Like many in the innovation space I think of user-led innovation as a no-brainer. Who wouldn’t talk to their users? It makes so much sense it’s almost a cliche. Reading through Eric Von Hippel’s study of consumer innovation in the UK, written with Jeroen De Jong and Steven Flowers, however, shook me out of this complacency. Consumer innovation is much more profound than simply being influenced by user’s needs. The big news from the report (conducted for NESTA, London) is that consumers spend twice as much as companies in their own product development and adaptation efforts. How to Accelerate Innovation through Challenge Driven Innovation. Challenge Driven Innovation enables companies to tap into diverse perspectives and talent to solve problems faster, more cost-effectively and with less risk, ultimately resulting in accelerated innovation outcomes and improved business performance.
In this article Steve Bonadio introduces the concept of “Challenges” and their role in the emerging innovation management framework called Challenge Driven Innovation (CDI). For years, organizations of all shapes and sizes have sought new tools to better manage their lengthy and complex product development cycles, reduce risk and accelerate time-to-market for new products or services. A variety of methodologies and frameworks have historically been used to achieve these goals, including product lifecycle management (PLM), Stage-Gate, lean and Six Sigma. In its most basic form, a Challenge is a well-formed problem whose solution has value to a company. Berg's Little Printer now available for pre-order.
