Conductor é uma demonstração que utiliza de padrões como HTML5 e especialmente de CSS3 e oferece uma experiência onde usuários podem contar estórias utilizando páginas na web. A seguinte demonstração foi enviada no dia 30 de Junho no concurso CSS3 Animations DevDerby do projeto Mozilla. used to create new experiences over standard web pages.
Veja o vídeo da demonstração e saiba sobre o caso de uso: ConductorThe physics institute, IFSC at University of Sao Paulo, has launched its first display appliance kiosk. This project was designed and developed by IT team SCInfor using open-based technologies and TelaSocial open-source kiosk system. The use of TelaSocial shows that open source technologies are being remixed by university departments to bring innovative solutions and to make ideas happen.
In this project, TelaSocial is being used to enhance the reach of information available in their online web sites, and to create a physical experience for presentation of events for the local community. The system does not demand additional effort in terms of information workflow: it works as a web-based aggregation tool and offers a custom experience in the physical environment.
University of Sao Paulo is the largest institution of higher education and research in Brazil. USP offers free tuition and research development program for more than 76000 students, according to their numbers. TelaSocial is an open-source kiosk software, powered by Mozilla, and uses web-based standards to offer a custom kiosk experience for public and semi-public spaces.This is a big thanks to the SCInfor team at IFSC-USP for the great work they did in designing and customizing their display experience appliance using Mozilla technology and TelaSocial open-source kiosk system. I personally think that this project came quickly and so well because the SCInfor team already had a mindset towards open-source technologies and web standards. It's really nice to see that Brazilian top research and education universities, such as IFSC-USP, are independent enough to remix open-source technologies to make ideas happen, plus not to surrender to major corporation-driven marketing and educational programs. It shows a great example of leadership, innovation, self organization, and technical skills.
The attached document is a PDF version ( Available in Portuguese Language ) which gives an overview of their project. Thank you! SCInfor, and thanks to the board of directors at IFSC, University of Sao Paulo.
This is a revised version of a presentation It was given from TelaSocial at the Week of Science and Technology at the Instituto Federao Sao Carlos. This puts the TelaSocial web kiosk project as an example of systems that can be installed in local communities to create awareness for participation and to promote social benefit.
First I wanted to say thanks to the contributors that quickly answered the quest we did at Mechanical Turk. In this post, at the end, you will see links to each of the published video and and credits to each individual. This experimentation was an effort made in collaboration with these contributors from around the world. The quest was along the line " Let's socialize the walking machine experience --- provide an amateur video POV first person and help someone to do their exercises".
