Projection image : 103cm diameter / Table dimension : 115cm diameter x 87cm height
Client :
Tai Mo Shan Country Park Visitor Centre (大帽山郊野公園的遊客中心),
Agriculture, Fisheries and Conservation Department, Hong Kong (香港漁農自然護理署)
Category :
Offline Digital (Multi-touch Table)


Climate Change on Multi-touch Round Table is an exhibit which was created for Tai Mo Shan Country Park Visitor Centre, Hong Kong under Hong Kong government of Agriculture, Fisheries and Conservation Department in 2003. The exhibit educates people what is going on about our earth. The scientific data was visualized and perfectly displayed on the table of which creates an attractive animation and dynamic images for the visitors to play with.





Software Application
General Description : -
Display the visualized scientific data image and video materials about climate change on a 103cm diameter Multi-touch Round Table in an interactive way. It presents the satellites images of the Earth on a circular table surface and provides a different angle of view for the visitors to see how serious illness of our Earth. The visualized scientific measurement of Carbon Dioxide, Global Temperature, Typhoon & Hurricane & Land and Sea Surface Temperature were projected on a 3D globe model with multi-touch function. Users can compare the changes against time and visit wherever they want to see on the globe about the info of Climate Change.

Functionality : -

  • Multi touch interaction - users can manipulate (zoom in/out and drag) the 3D Virtual Globe on the table surface.
  • Ring menu – the Round User-Interface is designed to facilitate round table top, enabling users to view the contents and access information from any angle.
  • Time controller – is a time control where the user can forward, backward or pause at the specific time to view the visualized scientific measurement.
  • Videos about Sea Ice, Sea Level, Typhoon & Hurricane, Greenhouse Gases, Ocean conveyor Belt, Carbon Cycle and Honey Bee & Climate Change
  • Q&A – to test the visitors what they get on this table
  • Roundtable provides an environment for the visitors to make immediate discussion.
  • Interactive 3D Virtual Globe – the visualized scientific measurement of Carbon Dioxide, Global Temperature, Typhoon & Hurricane & Land and Sea Surface Temperature were projected on a 3D globe model with multi-touch function. Users can compare the changes against time and visit wherever they want to see on the globe about the info of Climate Change.









Performance : -

  • Round shape installation is the best way to display images of the Earth. It can attract the attention of visitors, presenting our valuable and extraordinary home - the Earth.
  • The diameter 103cm Earth images which create an atmosphere of the Earth viewed from outer space. It provides a different point of view and deeper impression for the visitors to understand the seriousness of climate change.
  • Multi-touch functionality and intuitive interface operation which allows more people to participate in the interaction simultaneously.
  • The amazing interactive effects such as auto-pilot, that the earth will automatically rotate to the related location in order to be consistent to the video contents.
