The Library Living Lab opens its doors

Open on last April 25, the Library Living Lab (L3) is a unique services and technology solutions laboratory located in the Miquel Batllori library, Sant Cugat, closed to the Barcelona Synchrotron Park (BSP). L3 aims at exploring the technology applications of new ways of interacting with books, with the entire contain of a library and with culture in general.
 
To be meaningful, L3 has to be a dynamic and collaborative project in which citizens work together with the Computer Vision Center (CVC) researchers from the UAB university, a key BSP partner, and public institutions.
 
L3 starts working on 3 initial projects. The first one is devoted to the access to digital collections offering added value to the documents. The second one deals with the search for new interaction forms between users and machines based on the use of augmented reality and real objects. The third one focuses on the use of the 3D printer installed in the library.
 
In addition to these 3 initial lines of research, users are invited to suggest new research and working programmes.
