just like this previous post, it would be nicer if the circle in google+ has "language property"
and every post will be automatically filtered or determined which circle the post can belong to...
i have a lot of international friends, and it is often determined by group which language i should use. when i use japanese, i dont want to disturb my friends wall for example in facebook, twitter, and so on.
and google+ has possibility to make it easier, because it is often the groups(i mean circles in google+ word/world) which sets my language to speak.
Thank you for reading :)

KNIdea: ~New Design Ideas~ Everyday updating any kind of new ideas. just an idea :p
7/12/11
facebook/skype online info/ gmail recieving info
this would be similar to the previous post;
KNIdea: Small signal for distance places
that was, communicating with their gf/bf, using ambiguous communication tool.
sending the paired object's information
today's idea is using almost same idea, about sending "internet information"
like facebook, skype, gmail
in detail, for example, what if we could have a domino which has our friends' (in facebook) face picture. and it turn over when the friend went offline, or stand when the friend comes online.
we can confirm those information from website or software, but it means always from display. we have no choice to confirm those info without turning on the computer, even the g-mails
then, what if we could have dominos like this??
then, we could confirm whether your friends are online or not
or we could confirm whether we've got e-mail or not, without connecting to the internet (i mean the computers)
or it can be designed like this :p

Small signal for distance places
haha, it is really cute....
i have no idea how to spread this idea, but it gives me some hints, or some inspiration for today's idea.
when i got a mobile at the first time, or before getting the first mobile i was thinking that e-mail is something really useful, and it never forces people to reply immediately, that means receiver has their own choice when they replies.
but nowadays, e-mail is something bothering sometimes. the number of e-mails are increasing, and some e-mail requires really quick response. that makes us stick to the computers....
it is also reach to the couples. let's say, i want to call to my girlfriend, and gave a call, but she didn't reply. then i might send an e-mail such like " can you have a call when you have a time?"
then, it increase the number of e-mails, and becomes a reason bothering my girlfriend...
ah,,, needless to say, but i don't have girlfriend now though... lol
then, what if we could have small tangible staff on our desk, and it has really small signal communication... like tangible "poke" system.
for example, having cube with colors, or having a book that says "call me" or something, and every action towards the object will transfer to distant girlfriend's place... then we can find they are at home or they have time or not or... we can inform that "i want you to care me!!!" .... without (hopefully) bother each other
hmm.... it is hard to explain, and i have no idea whether it works or not.
but isn't it cute or funny if we could communicate using tools like something in the video above?? ; one falls the domino, and one stand that, it is definitely communicating something.
in short, my interest is having tangible communication tool instead of existing, e-mail, call or skype.

wearable video recorder
today's idea is about video recorder.
what i thought of the problem is, real time recording in specific situation; sports, concert, and so on.
then, what is the problem there??
imagine you were using video recorder, in order to record your child's soccer game. and you are thinking of having really good film for the future.
then, you won't be able to leave your focus from the video recorder's display. it means, you can not watch your child's game directly, only through your display.
same thing happen when you were in concert, and the main person is moving around, and he/she came just in front of you.
then, there is only one option you can take, whether taking picture instead of touching him/her, or touching him/her instead of picturing.
there's no choice to take both of the options.
then, i thought there should be solutions for that, and today's idea is for that.
actually similar post was here (hints from Video glasses, and portable printers) as well, but this time, it is a bit different.
the design is something like that
maybe it needs a lot of prototypes.... i mean it is not the final product, but im thinking basically like this.
of course, one opinion i will get from prototypes must be "feedback"; whether filming or not, where the video is aiming at, and so on.
the solution might be something like this, (from dragonball lol)
or can be a separate display like mobile phone....
but still, we need to develop, but i think it could satisfy user's need very much....

Twitter Path
sometimes, like when japanese earthquake happened, twitter takes great role.
to inform many people...
but at the same time, it means "wrong information" or "old information" will be spread spontaneously.
in order to deal with those, it might be interesting if we could see the "path" of one tweet. not only "official retweet" but also "un-official retweet" (which uses RT: @--- xxx)
that's interesting just seeing, and also we can confirm where the resource is.
and if somebody find the information was wrong, we can inform people using exactly the same path.
problem behind is, when twitter or tv program broadcast wrong information, and even though they apologize after, we can not say, the apologize will achieve to the same people.
so... at least on twitter, it might be good to have those path thing as a function

online shop book
as i mentioned in Before Augmented Reality comes to the daily life there should be a step before AR coming to our real life.
today's idea is similar to the previous post, but extracting digital world's component into real world.
the idea is having "online shop book"
maybe you had experienced reading some articles or books, and had seen some product in it.
then, it would be nice if some companies ship the product just by reading QR code or RFID through our smart phones. and if we registered your payment information and address, we can use it in multiple books or shops (which i posted in the previous post)
what is different between real online shop and the "online shop book?"
that might not really different, and might become a competitor...
but sometimes, at least for me, world in digital bother me.
reading physical books brings sometimes better experience.
and also that's diffidently easier for elderly person if there are physical book than online

Before Augmented Reality comes to the daily life
before writing about today's idea... i have to excuse about having no update recently...
the last update was.... maybe the beginning of June... but i will continue posting from today!!
i was just being lazy...
actually i could say i was busy because it was my end of the 1 year project, and i had to travel finland, us, paris, and had important presentation in stanford and enpc in paris....
and i have to move out from paris, and going back to japan...
but being busy must not be any excuse, i know...
but anyway, i will start again!!
today's idea is inspired from here
this is actually really nice idea i can say...
QR codes (like following pictures) are i think not that popular in europ or other countries compared with korea or japan, but the concept itself can be achieved without this one, like ic tags, rfids, and so on. (though QR code seems the cheapest...)
the concept is, easy-access from real world to digital world, in my understanding.
and now, there is a little bit similar concept, so-called AR.
AR is i think very good idea and concept, and the thing is as i said, a bit similar to the first video's concept: in terms of bringing users from
real world to digital world.
but as you can see, the entrance of the digital world is a bit different. and those can be regarded as interfaces between real world and digital world, and following 2 figures explains where the border of the 2 worlds are.
of course we are living in real world. so it must be easier for us to have interface in our real life than in digital life.
so in my opinion, AR is too early. we have to wait for 3 years or more, waiting for the new concept that the first video brought spread. i mean wait for users to get used to play with physical/real-life interface which brings users into digital world from real world
today's idea is simple, but having something like first video's ones in any shops, ideally on price tags or shelves; shops for clothes, shoes, or furniture, daily things, and so on
the merit will be for example when you are traveling, and find something good, but you dont want to bring it back because of the limit of the luggage or just being lazy because it is heavy. then if the application or something remembers your address, payment info, and so on, you don't need to fill the documents to ship it, you dont need to pay it there, you don't need to cue for the payment, and you dont need to bring it back. (or you don't need to prepare cash of that countries)
that would be.... nicer, i think^^
of course, the difference between online shop and that idea is that customer can actually see and touch the product, and user can trust more^^
Thank you for reading :)

the border of digital world and real world with AR technology
the border of digital world and real world in first video's concept
