Peeble

What is the future of mobile phones and service associated? In the end of 2006, mobile device technologies are in extreme developpement and promise a bright future. Even if most of the French are using mobile phones, the experiences given by such devices are not as good as they could be. How could it be possibly different? Peeble give a possible answer by bringing fun in the use of the mobile device. The aim of Peeble is not to be more efficient than classical mobile phone. Just more funny (should I say funnier?) and explore what could be intuitivity

Browse a mobile device using movement requires an user interface dedicated to this use. Peeble give access to the content of your device via an organic interface. The content is organised in living strings. Each element of the string has a shape and color in function of the type of the content. The main cell of the strings are people. We take as a postulate that each piece of data in the phone has a human source (for example you create a picture, or someone send you a video, ...) The data organise in strings around contacts. Browsing the strings of cells is done by inclining the device and touching the elements.
PS This project was done with Jaewon Jang, Korean student from the IDAS in 2007, just before Apple launched its Iphone.
