True and not true. Open Hybrid is not useful without the visual representation that breaks down the object in to its components. Short write up about it here: http://openhybrid.org/how-to-connect-everything.html The problem

I was never at TechCrunch Disrupt but I watched the Silicone Valley Show. :-P I had a talk at the last Solid Conference. Maybe that was the event you know me from?

I would say that there are a ton of people in the world that love to build things, because its how we came to that point where we are. This is the sole reason why the world around you exists. Imagine building becomes so easy that it is more

You can checkout openhybrid.org for some of these questions. We do research in the Media Lab not product development. The Reality Editor is a projection in to the future. But have a look at the costs of SoC's. It's going down so r

I disagree! The internet is successful because authoring and publishing became as easy as consuming. The first web browser was an editor and a browser in the same time. The most successful webpages are those where people are authors. Peopl

That is a good scenario. What you see in the video and on open hybrid is really as much as we can put in to code at this point and I believe that it is a very good beginning. There is so much more that we want to implement and some of it wo

But this is what makes us Humans! The development of tools. You would not be able to write these messages if not for all the tools build along our path. Simple physical tools like a screwdriver enable us to fix and create objects in the phy

I think the new specifications for bluetooth with ip6 and Mesh networking are interesting. But the open hybrid platform builds up on the most common ground. If WiFi pollutes the spectrum, jet there are more and more SoC's with WiFi on

Yes, this is a big thing. Our goal is it to make the creation of objects so easy that it can become a simple part of the workflow of a product + web designer. Very very very low entry barrier. This is something we continuously work on with

Because this kind of new visual interface is scaleable. You can operate 1000s of objects without a problem. This is something your app centric user interface would start looking like Times-Square. The Desktop-Metaphor is not scaleable with

It goes beyond that. The interesting thing is that in the moment you have a visual representation for an object, you can break it down into all its components. From that moment on the abstract object is represented by numbers only. You can

We designed the platform behind the Reality Editor in such a way that it can adopt. You can read more about it here: http://openhybrid.org/how-to-connect-everything.html If you can run nodejs in your object, you will be abl
