CaptuRing: A Tangible Imaging Tool for Brainstorming

Abstract

This paper introduces CaptuRing: an adjustable tangible tool for designers to support and augment their brainstorming process. The tool enables selective capturing of required information from a table-top surface meant for brainstorming, storing it and accessing the stored information using intuitive interactions. This provides a framework to relook and reinvestigate upon previous brainstorming sessions to creatively build on each other's ideas while eliminating the need of everyone being present at the same time.
