In the future we will live in technolife grids that can be configured to fuse many technologies, artefacts, devices and systems in order to provide different services to support our everyday life activities.  The overall aim is to enhance every aspect of our lives and environments for a happier, healthier and more productive life.

The technolife grid is a facility which is unique in the world. It has many state of the art devices and systems such as the first volumetric display in Europe, stereo virtual studio, haptic glove, comprehensive human tracking including facial expressions, and many more.

What makes the technolife grid unique is its architecture of technology provisions-vs.-life-services and which is based on fused media technology. It can be configured to provide several services simultaneously. The current technology provisions include:

• multi-modal capture & tracking,
• context awareness,
• multi-modal visualisation,
• multi-modal interactivity.

To arrange a visit and to discuss how the technolife grid can be configured to suit your requirements, please contact Professor Dimitrios Rigas (drigas@dmu.ac.uk).
