Physical Display with Ferromagnetic Fluid.

By Alex in Pictures on Feb 6, 2007 at 11:17 pm

German interaction and interface designer Martin Frey created some wonderful projects like CabBoots (the shoes with integrated navigation system) and the JITWatch (the "smart" watch that knows your next appointment and calculates when you should get going based on how long it takes to get there)

This one above is SnOil, Martin’s project on creating a physical display using programmable ferromagnetic fluid.

    Ferrofluid is pretty fun stuff. I bought some a while back to make something a lot like this. It’s still in the construction phase but it’s coming along.
