- The development of Smart-Its for building smart environments is discussed. Smart-Its are small, self-contained, stick-on computers that attach to everyday objects. These augmented objects become soft media, enabling dynamic digital relationships with users and each other. A Smart-Its consists of a core board with a wireless transceiver to let the device communicate with other Smart-Its, plus a sensor board that gives the Smart-Its data about its sorroundings. The major advantage of the system is that it allows designers and researchers to construct responsive or intelligent environments.

- The use of physical objects as manipulable representations of information extends back to the dawn of civilization. Early research efforts toward tangible interfaces appear to have developed in parallel at several institutions. Fishkin has created a framework from the perspective of human-computer interaction, which offers researchers new tools for describing and contrasting tangible interfaces. At an editorial meeting, all papers were discussed at length by the three editors. In some cases, this meant choosing among submissions that were similar in scope, and picking the one that best supported our intentions for the issue. The paper by McNerney takes the Slot Machine as a departing point, and discusses an evolution of education-oriented tangible interface research at the MIT Media Lab. And Binder et al. discuss a series of efforts where tangible interfaces have been integrated into the working environment of students, under the auspices of a European project with partners from several countries.
