The Mobile Multi Display is a tiling display that consists of multiple iPod or iPhone devices connected via WiFi. Together these devices form a larger display that can be used for slideshows, games and other interactive applications. Our implementation allows for the intuitive setup and calibration of the display and the usage of the display for interactive photo slideshows, a very simple racing game, and a new castle destroying game.
This work was presented at the Eurographics 2010 conference. More information can be found on the projects website.
You need a WiFi network that allows device-to-device communication (in particular UDP-broadcasts), which most home-based WiFi networks allow.
