Bend Desk is a prototype interactive display that takes the digital workspace from the screen to the desktop by the media computing group at RWTH Aachen University. While a typical work setup combines a flat desktop with a vertical computer screen, bend desk combines the two into one single unit. Bend desk is a vision for a future workspace that allows continuous interaction between both areas.

Google has announced its first venture in the computer hardware category. Rather than going to a store to buy the device, google is running a pilot program for those interested. Users will be sent the device and in return they will provide google with their feedback. This underlines the importance of prototyping in the process of innovation. See the article!
