WILD - Wall-sized Interaction with Large Datasets (2008-2011). 3 academic partners: LRI, INRIA and LIMSI-CNRS. Funded by RTRA Digiteo and Région Île-de-France, Domaine d'Intérêt Majeur “Logiciels et systèmes complexes”: 429 Keuros. Emmanuel Pietriga & Michel Beaudouin-Lafon: coordinators and principal investigators. WILD is an experimental high-resolution, interactive platform for conducting research on collaborative human-computer interaction and the visualization of large datasets. The platform is now being made available to scientists from other disciplines, including astrophysicists, biologists, chemists, as well as computer scientists, to visualize, explore and analyze their data.

WILD-PCRI (2010-2011). Extension of the WILD project (same partners) to extend the WILD platform with multi-channel audio capabilities and a flat-panel multitouch surface, and move it to the new PCRI building.

Design and evaluation of novel paper-based interfaces for large interactive surfaces (2010-2011). 24 Keuros. Funded by Univ. Paris-Sud (“Bonus attractivité”). Theophanis Tsandilas: principal investigator. This equipment grant will allow us to explore the use of paper-based interfaces by scientists in the context of the multi-surface interaction paradigm that we develop for the WILD platform.
