this paper, we discuss the inherent advantages of enhancing everyday objects with computation, describe three key research problems that must be addressed to achieve these advantages and outline our approach in these areas.
Identification of everyday objects on the basis of . . .
, 2008
"... Line drawings of everyday objects are generally very easy to identify, perhaps even as easy as the original objects themselves, which shows that the most essential informa-tion about object identity is preserved (or even enhanced) in line drawings (Biederman ..."

Co-opting Everyday Objects
, 2000
"... this paper, I take an all-encompassing view of augmented reality that is often also attributed to the work in ubiquitous computing. Namely that computation pervades our everyday environments, whether visible or invisible, it is intertwined with our daily experience. From my work as an experienced re ..."

researcher and a acolyte designer, I want to initiate a discussion about how we augment the physical world by first understanding how people currently use common everyday objects, and then designing new capabilities that reify and enhance these practices
Cryptographic Protocols with Everyday Objects
"... Abstract. Most security protocols appearing in the literature make use of cryptographic primitives that assume that the participants have access to some sort of computational device. However, there are times when there is need for a security mechanism to evaluate some result without leaking sensitiv ..."

sensitive information, but com-putational devices are unavailable. We discuss here various protocols for solving cryptographic problems using everyday objects: coins, dice, cards, and envelopes. 1
Fluid Mechanics of Everyday Objects
, 2013
"... Several videos of common objects are produced to remind us that we are constantly surrounded by a variety of fluid mechanical processes in our ev-eryday lives. The videos are taken using a Phantom v710 camera set at 1000 fps, with an exposure time of 330 ms. A conventional z-type Schlieren ..."

The MediaCup: Awareness Technology embedded in an Everyday Object
- 1st International Symposium on Handheld and Ubiquitous Computing (HUC99
, 1999
"... . The MediaCup is an ordinary coffee cup augmented with sensing, processing and communication capabilities, to collect and communicate general context information in a given environment. In this project, coffee cups are computerized to integrate them and the information they hold---where the cup ..."

is, how it is handled, and whether it's hot or cold---as context into surrounding information ecologies. 1 Introduction Computerization of everyday objects is a promising approach toward weaving computer usage into the fabric of our everyday lives. Many examples have been developed in which
Digitally Augmented Everyday Objects in Music Composition
"... Abstract—This paper discusses three instances of compositions, in which physical and cyber everyday objects interact. The physical objects such as plastic corrugated tubes, plastic superballs, glass marbles, cocktail shakers, electric blenders, and others provide unique musical data for the performa ..."

I/O Brush: Drawing with Everyday Objects as Ink
, 2004
"... We introduce I/O Brush, a new drawing tool aimed at young children, ages four and up, to explore colors, textures, and movements found in everyday materials by "picking up" and drawing with them. I/O Brush looks like a regular physical paintbrush but has a small video camera with lights an ..."

Integrating Handhelds into Environments of Cooperating Smart Everyday Objects
- Proceedings of the 2nd European Symposium on Ambient Intelligence
, 2004
"... Because of their severe resource-restrictions and limited user interfaces, smart everyday objects must often rely on remote resources to realize their services. This paper shows how smart objects can obtain access to such resources by spontaneously exploiting the capabilities of nearby mobile us ..."
