Use Case
Smart City & Citizen Participation Touch Tables
Large, interactive multi-touch tables visualize complex urban development projects in 3D and enable transparent, gamified citizen participation.
Urban development processes are often highly abstract and extremely difficult for laypeople to grasp using 2D blueprints. A massive, interactive touch screen in the town hall or an information center solves this problem by displaying entire districts as detailed 3D models. Citizens can intuitively navigate through the city using their fingers, just like on a giant smartphone, zooming in on planned infrastructure projects and accessing background information (e.g., noise protection, landscaping) via pop-ups. By integrating feedback functions or gamification elements (Interactive Storytelling), dry information sharing transforms into an interactive dialogue at eye level.
Application Areas:
- Town hall meetings & municipal information events
- Architecture competitions (innovative exhibition of various submissions)
- City marketing (presenting "Smart City" visions for the future to investors)
Benefits
Why this use case?
Complex Topics Immediately Understandable
High-quality 3D visualizations break down technical jargon and abstract architectural plans, ensuring that every citizen immediately understands the impact of a project on their direct environment.
Active Increase in Acceptance
Transparent and visually tangible communication prevents citizen protests and actively and constructively involves the population in the planning process.
Efficient Data Collection & User Insights
Through the tracking and survey tools integrated on the touch screen, the city administration receives direct, measurable feedback on which zones or planning details arouse the most interest (or the most concerns).
