The freedom to work from an arbitiary position

We have designed two sets of communication tools to enable telepresence in groups who work in different locations. Afterwards we evaluated the tools. Study (A). in the first group, takes place in a big company in a relatively small group, of seven people, while study (B), in the second group, takes place in a larger group of approx. 20 members in an academic research lab. In order to design those two communication systems we argue that a broader perspective of work, living environment, life, friends and relations need to be considered. Insight into this complexity could only be gained using a “multi-domain methodology”. We will in, this poster, give an example of these two ongoing research projects where we have used this methodology.
