  • The MIT Media Lab is using innovation to boil efficient teamwork down to a science. With an enhanced ability to communicate across teams, MIT is creating a workplace that shares ideas in unprecedented ways. The Changing Places group at MIT tackles large challenges like fighting pollution and urban modeling; the latter of which is being solved by using a combination of lego bricks and augmented reality.

    I thought this video was going to talk about Augmented reality technology but instead it was an MIT lab advert

    It's my dream to do my masters at the MIT media lab for industrial design! I'll make it there, one day. I only need to win a few more awards :)

    MIT, Lego and AR. What else do you want. :D

    MIT is always leading.

    Is there a demonstration of this without all the cutaways to the people talking?

    1:44 javascript? really...

    I am trying to understand why there is an actual view at all and not just VR/AR glasses with 3D visualizations and different levels of detail. In other words you should be in "The Matrix" that you can play with.

    damn this is like simcity come true

    I feel very nostalgic, remembering the childhood playing with LEGO 💖. It was so fun and inspiring that I forgot about the time.
    With the development of civilization, cultural activities and practical business seem to be merging.
    That will be because physical labor in economic & social activities is shifting to brain works like policymaking or science.
    The former is based on people's values and the latter requires the familiarization between complicating technologies & human senses.

    So why not just use old simcity working towns and city's to find the most officiant ways to construct and run one? I'm asking cause i wanna know what the difference is. Not cause I think what they are doing is wrong.

      Part of the point is that it is comprised of actual physical material being manually manipulated and observed. I think it could be cool if actual SimCity software could be retrofitted to run on physical models.

    build affordable housing with this technology

    Was that a nuclear power plant which releases no pollution when it said pollution in the video?

    the legos have zero use compared to having just a projection of the city and using an already built traffic simulators

    It's LEGO, not LEGOs! #WIREDSmagazine

    still cardboard is dozen times cheaper

    • @tomviolin
      @tomviolin Před 6 lety

      I completely agree. However, just imagine the number of clicks generated by a link labeled "How MIT builds cities using cardboard..." vs. the current title -- no comparison. IMHO once the concept is conveyed, then bringing in cheaper materials to actually implement it is easy enough.
