Recently I was asked to join Tangible Interaction in developing a Chrome Experiment that used WebRTC, an emerging web technology that enables P2P browser interaction (tabs talking to other tabs), without sending the data over the server.
We developed Playground, which enables 5 friends in close proximity (100m) to join a “room” where each player will have a different controller that determines a visual outcome.
The project was a lot of fun to develop and break new ground using an up and coming web technology on mobile.
The app can be found on Chrome Experiments here.
