In Interaction Bar, each wine cup represents a different character and emotion. Simulated scenes and the interaction surface react to users with unique visuals in each situation. Just like a real barroom crowd, these interactions can build bridges of friendship and encourage conversations, even among people who have never met.
This system may provide a conceptual model for future furniture that is more than just physical components in a room. Furniture can become a participant in a lifestyle.
