In the video above, David Merrill of MIT Media Lab demos Siftables.
Created by David Merrill and Jeevan Kalanithi at the MIT Media Lab, Siftables are cookie-sized computers with motion sensing, neighbor detection, graphical display, and wireless communication. created by David Merrill and Jeevan Kalanithi at the MIT Media LabThey act in concert to form a single interface: users physically manipulate them - piling, grouping, sorting - to interact with digital information and media. Siftables provides a new platform on which to implement tangible, visual and mobile applications.
Is this the next thing in hands-on learning? Absolutely brilliant!
