Requirements to systems for collaboration
> intuitive
> easy to use, easy human-system interaction
> no special training required
> supportive in collaborations between members involved
> can be used daily
> possibility to perform tasks in parallel

> The output can be be projected on a table
> Information onthe table is ‘touchable’ for the users
> Can be combined with differnet devices (i.e. other screens)
> The information can be presented in different modes depending on the eedof the users
