Collaboration and research come hand in hand. Conferences and meetings are held worldwide to bring interdisciplinary groups together to work on current topics and subjects of interest. Often times with differing schedules and time zones, people find it difficult to set a date to sit down, discuss ideas, and tackle problems. When a date is finally settled, it is crucial that every minute is not taken for granted or wasted away. With this in mind, we want to enhance the efficiency of the conference room experience.
Our goal is to enhance the information sharing experience, the idea that collaborators, whether they are sitting right next to you or sitting virtually across from you from a different country, can access and view what is wanted to be shown in an instant. This application will make sure that group members are not searching for a website or file during discussions and are not exerting extra effort to find what is already being displayed. We hope to use current technology of networking sharing to make sure that people do not have to download outside programs for this application to be successful.
This problem can be addressed by creating a simple platform in which information can be shared easily and almost instantaneously. One vital way to enhance the virtual interaction between members of a group is to be able to share information, such as documents, web pages, images, videos, etc., efficiently and without the need of visible external hardware or programs. We vision a setting where two or more people are able to share the windows opened on their personal computers with a click of a button. There is no limit to the type of file that can be transferred; if the receiving computer has the necessary program installed, i.e. Firefox, Microsoft word, etc., that program will be used to open the file received, otherwise, a simple image will be displayed on the receiver’s computer.
Another possible way to promote effective communication, that we will try to implement if time permits, is to be able to share/sync contact information instantaneously on your phone. This will save users time, which could instead be used in making human to human interaction, during the meeting.
