Reality Editor

The Reality Editor is a tool for empowering a user to connect and manipulate the functionality of physical objects. As such, a user can point the camera of a smartphone at a prepared object and its invisible capabilities will become visible to be edited. By dragging a virtual line from one object to another a new relationship between these objects is created. The research presented in this video aims to enable a user to master the entire scope of connected objects using a simple interface. The contribution of this video is to show a proof of concept of our user interface research as well the use of our novel networking platform called openhybrid.org in a real life scenario. The presented technology enables the simple creation of decentralized augmented user interactions. The authors have made the Reality Editor and the openhybrid.org platform open source and freely available online for download.
