It’s a touch thing
Tim Kindberg of matter 2 media and interactive storyteller Rik Lander are collaborating on touch technologies including NFC/RFID and QR. The Technology Strategy Board has awarded us a grant to develop touch into a platform for creative applications.
So, you’ve tried ‘checking in’ to places. Now touch something. A simple touch can unleash mobile & embedded experiences and, if you want, ripple into social media.
It’s a touch thing.
