The Roqs Tree exists to cross over the traditional opposition between real and virtual worlds by the game of interactive meeting. Based on a festive or cultural event, the Roqs Tree encourages meetings by using multimedia resources : chat, visualization, video capture, ...
In a fun and dynamic way, these resources restore in real time key moments of the event.
Crossing point of the event, the RoqsTree is both the witness and memory of the event. Everyone can express themselves freely during the event. It offers to guests the possibility to build the tree of their meeting.
Presentation
A 3D reproduction of the location of the event is projected onto a surface (screen, facade etc.).The tree has his place in this representation and has only a few branches and no fruit. The tree grows and develops by informations that participants offer to him. He feeds on the expression of the public. Throughout the evening, guests will mark their presence by hanging their name to the tree, their photo and a short sentence.
Several interactive modules allow the public to enrich the tree at any time of new photos, comments and sounds. Connected to the Internet, the tree is open to the world. Texts, images and video can be also broadcast to the outside of the event, and particularly to persons who can not move on site, to participate in the mood for the evening.
