چکیده
In this paper we present KOALA, a system realizing shared displays for promoting informal cooperation. We report the results from an exploratory study of real world usage of KOALA that we have conducted to understand how shared display systems are used and how their usage patterns might differ from their paperbased counterparts. This study was conducted with the aim of informing the design of ambient displays to be used in office settings. A number of lessons learned from the experimentation are outlined.
