REACH Projector : Remote Embodiment for Augmented Collaborative Help

This project is in collaboration with researchers in the Department of Curriculum and Instruction. It seeks to ask the question: “How do distributed maker communities help students develop their identities as future engineers if they are unable to find help and mentorship?” This project aims to address the need for collaboration support mechanisms in our community makerspaces through co-developing outreach activities using a novel projection device that allows users to talk and share gestures around a common artifact while in separate locations.
