Abstract
SKINNI is an application that allows users to access, annotate, and share contextually relevant information from smart digital kiosks in public spaces. These platforms will not only enable information exchange from public spaces, but will also support more complex tasks like enterprise integration, informal collaboration, and public need servicing. To test the effectiveness of our system, we deployed SKINNI on four kiosks throughout MIT CSAIL. Usage statistics that we have gathered suggest that SKINNI has been well-received by both lab members and visitors. In short, SKINNI has contributed to the utility of ubiquitous computing in transitional spaces like elevator lobbies, hallways, and lounges.
