free visible network

Spanish researchers Clara Boj and Diego Diaz are working on the Free Network Visible Network (04), an augmented reality project which aims to make visible the exchanged information between computers of a wireless network. First marks in the facades of the buildings will indicate the presence of a node, thus the possibility of connecting to the net, and at the same time to see the 3D representation of the information that we are interchanging with this node in real time. via wemake$

It needs to try to steer a debate that is reshaping France and the rest of Europe."
