Smart Architectural Surfaces are a modular framework for building highly integrated and interactive "smart spaces" based on a self-organizing network of cells that form the surfaces.

Each cell incorporates networked communications, sensing, intelligence, and actuation/display. Cells coordinate their operation in order to provide complex sensing and display applications, and can change from being translucent to transparent to become ad-hoc windows. We also are exploring kinetic capabilities such as motion or vibration.

This is a joint project between the MIT Media Laboratory and the Digital Media Laboratory at the Information and Communications University (ICU) in Korea.
