    This blog will be used to show all those fancy digital things I do during my time at RIT in my Interactive Digital Media course! (of course, there will also be musings and such which might be questionable, so you've been warned)

Provision has been making new holographic displays for a wide range of purposes, and features images that can come out up to four feet away from the screen! While the videos don't do it justice, this is definitely pretty cool stuff, and would be ideal for restaurants.

I like this quite a bit. Would definitely be fun in a restaurant. Hopefully the video explains everything!

The Interactive Bar, or iBar for short, is pretty cool as it is an interactive surface which reacts to touch, making for some pretty cool effects when there's drinks on the table, and is ideal for parties. The designers can also incorporate branding into the system for advertising purposes.


Check out the video, you'll be impressed!

  1. Inamo Restaurant

    The Inamo Restaurant is located in Soho in London, and features interactive menus that customers are able to order their meals and drinks through!


  2. The Yellow Treehouse

    This restaurant is found in New Zealand! The name is pretty self-explanatory but the whole concept and the design is pretty cool. Love the design of the architecture.



  3. Ninja Restaurant




  4. The Napa Valley Wine Train

    Restaurant on a refurbished train going through a good 40km of countryside, with a great view, good food and rare wines. Need I say more?

Touchscreens seem to be all the rage these days, and it's little wonder when there's a lot of interaction at hand. Touch-screens like this are handy for the start of the night when people look through the menu and choose their meals. The touch-screens also mean that customers can quickly access information about their meals, including ingredients and nutritional information before they go and make their meal choices. Also handy for ordering drinks without having to wait a long time for the waitress.

LUSENS-INTERACTIVE TABLES from Jennifer Baker on Vimeo.

This is essentially a table with a screen built-in that people can interact with. This kind of thing has been around only recently especially with Microsoft's take on the interactive table-top displays. Would definitely be handy for making orders at restaurants along with a nice backdrop as people are having their meals! Another example would be something like the iBar.
