Experiment 2009
Based on our work and experiences at experiment 2008 we have developed the @aGlance technologies version 2. This version was used at SmukFest2009.
Fact Sheet @aGlance Experiment 2009
The @aGlance technologies use and integrate well-known technologies as GPS, mobile phones, GIS data, 3D…
This integration of well-known technologies offers the emergency response personnel a common frame of reference and supports their overview
All actors (emergency response personnel):
► can see what is happening at the festival place “at a glance” (overview)
► can see where the other actors are (location)
► can see what the other actors see (collaboration)
► can choose their own or their collegues point of view
► - and see what is happening nearby (context)
At SmukFest 2009 we focused on:
► integration of communication infrastructure (GPS and radio)
► visual communication (video, pictures in 3D environment)
► activity indication (larger movements at the festival place illustrated in the 3D environment)
► tracking emergency response resources and key personnel (via GPS, represented and located in the 3D environment)
► use of static and remote controllable cameras (remote controlled in the 3D environment)
► local and central overview (interaction with 3D environment on:
- Handheld devices used “in the field” (picture below on the left)
- Stationary monitors placed central fx coordinators (picture below on the right)
