Field of research
 
Keywords: Design, Augmented Reality, Spatial Computing, Future perspectives of work environments.
 
My main interest is new technologies combined with Design and Architecture.

I'm currently working on a project carrying the title: "Design processes enhanced through Augmented Reality". The project is done in collaboration with InterMedia Århus.

The project focuses on how to support ad hoc meetings by means of new technologies aimed at the work processes of designers and architects. The thesis is that few design solutions are made under formal meetings, but rather is accomplished through ad hoc meetings emerging spontaneously. My aim is to support this activity by applying new technologies in an Augmented Reality environment, where both the physical and digital objects reside.
The challenges are to make a perceptual coherence between the physical and the digital environment both regarding the visual impact and the handling of objects.

Augmented Reality - in an Architectural Perspective

Applying augmented reality technologies to rooms and spaces will effect the perception of the architectural space.
A part of working with interactive rooms is to investigate our expanding possibilities for interacting with digital technologies, from today's restricted use of fingertips on a mouse to include the whole body and this way enhancing our range of expressions for activating and communicating with and by technologies.
The perception of architectural spaces involves all our senses listen, touching, watching etc. and the total result of these impression could be seen as an atmosphere of the room that tunes us into a specific mode with both restrictions and possibilities for activities........

Paper for CVE´00 conference
 
This a paper for the Collaborativ Virtual Environments CVE´00 conference which I co-authored with people at University of Lancaster and Computer Science at Aarhus University.

Abstract
This paper describes Manufaktur, a prototype of a concept and infrastructure that goes beyond the classical CVE systems toward a collaborative augmented reality environment, where users’ documents and objects appear as live representations in a 3D workspace. Manufaktur supports collaborative, distributed work across platforms. It provides the possibility of display on the MS Windows and the SGI IRIX platforms with mono and stereo-graphic displays ranging from a monitor built into a table to a Holobench. The emphasis is on representing the materials with which people are working, and the actions they are taking with them, and far less on the visual representation, e.g. through avatars, of the collaborating persons. It seeks to facilitate users’ collective self-organisation of environments, spaces and traces that embody the trajectory of their work.

Presentation of WorkSPACE and Augmented Reality

 This is the slideshow I presented at an internal conference in CID, presenting the current state of my research project and the upcoming EU finansed research project WorkSPACE. The project will be carried out in collaboration by Sociology at University of Lancaseter, Computer Science at Aarhus University and CommunicationDesign at the School of Architecture in Aarhus.

Presentation at SIGCHI.dk 4th. of December
 
This presentation describes ways of gathering information about potential users. The methods described are developed by IDEO and Computer Realted Design at Royal College of Art in London.

Forskningsprojekt i CID

"Evaluering og udvikling af ITredskaber, der processuelt og formgivningsmæssigt understøtter integreret design"
 
Uffe Lentz
Professor, arkitekt MAA, Arkitektskolen i Aarhus

Peter Krogh
Forskningsassistent, arkitekt MAA, Arkitektskolen i Aarhus
 
Formål
Projektet søger på et teoretisk og praktisk plan at bidrage til diskussionen om forandringer i arkitekturen, arkitektrollen og designprocessen set i lyset af det, nogle har omtalt som et samfundsmæssigt og naturvidenskabeligt paradigmeskift. Fra det moderne, mekaniserede univers forklaret ved linearitet og kausale sammenhænge til et nonlineært, selvorganiserende informationsunivers. Den generelle udvikling fra det globale plan til den personlige brug af IT er i høj grad sammenknyttet med forandringen både som forudsætning og virkning.
Projektets mål er at udvikle nye ITværktøjer til understøttelse af designbeslutninger og designprocesser baseret på den (arkitektur)teoretiske diskussion om relationen mellem information og form i den computeriserede globale virkelighed såvel som i designprocessen.

Focus
Projektet er opdelt i to delprojekter, hvor delprojekt 1 (Uffe Lentz) tilsigter at undersøge og udvikle dynamiske formgivningsværktøjer med henblik på procedurer og relevante interfaces, der klargør designspillerummet set i forhold til formgivningen i sig selv samt den samlede designproces.
Delprojekt 2 (Peter Krogh) undersøger moderne samarbejdsformer inden for produktdesign, og der udvikles ITværktøjer til understøttelse af designprocessen, hvis opgave er at inkorporere distribueret samarbejdsstøtte, samt redskaber, der visualiserer præmisserne for designbeslutninger.

Resultat
Projektet formidles gennem artikler på konferencer: Cooperative Buildings, CSCW, ACADIA og ECAADE.

Påbegyndelse og afslutning
Projektet er påbegyndt og planlagt til at løbe i hele centrets funktionsperiode, omfattende samlet 28,5 mdr. forskningstid.
