Coeno is a computer enhanced presentation environment designed for presenting a storyboard using tabletop technology in combination with augmented content. The system allows multiple participants to interact easily around a shared workspace, while having access to their own private information spaces and a public presentation space.
Users can sit at the table and bring their own laptop or pc that can be wireless connected to the display server. There are 3 display spaces:
– Private Space: The user’s laptop screen.
– Design Space: The shared table surface, only visible to those sitting around the table.
– Presentation Space: The wall projected display, visible to all the people in the room.
Users can, for example, create imagery (e.g. scenario sequences, scribbles, 3d content) on their own pc, move them to the Design Space for discussion, and then to the Presentation Space for final organization.
During discussion, all participants around the table can re-arrange the storyboard images. Images on the table, can be moved, rotated, and scaled respectively.
Once they have decided that an image should go in a particular order in the storyboard presentation, they can move it to the Presentation Space and arrange it on a presentation timeline.
