World's first MMS Mobile Phone Game

Though the MMS Me game can be played in many ways and circumstances, here’s a typical example: 36 people in a room are given a phone number to call to activate the game play.

They are given clues or questions and they have to SMS people in other places to get some of the answers, but in answering some of those questions, they actually have to interact with other people in the room.

So the MMS Me game it's not just a remote wireless game, it also setting up clues and social interactions face-to-face in the physical environment face-to-face as well as using the technology to interact with people you don't know across a long distance.

As players answer the questions and send their answers to the MMS server, it then begins to reveal images or additional clues on the large screen and those images begin to create another image ... it sounds complex but in real life it’s reportedly simple and fun and ensures you get to know the people in the room.

“MMS Me is about interaction with people through the phone, but it's also about the technology enabling you to find people within your physical space and meet those around you,” said Henderson Edbrooke. “People you would never have spoken to otherwise, for example, at a conference.”

Bodyshelf

Professor Jones also unveiled the BODYSHELF to international delegates at the UK conference.

Henderson Edbrooke described the BODYSHELF thus: "BODYSHELF is a life-size shelf that you step onto and lean back against an angled wall. There are sensors at all the pressure points, and there's a board that you stand on that moves too.
