Brandon Harvey, Senior Specialist, Accenture Technology Labs

I'm a research associate at the Accenture Technology Labs. I've worked on a number of projects in the general areas of user interfaces, social software, visualization and collaboration. Highlight projects include:

• Accenture Technology Vision. A primary author of 2010 Technology Vision, working under Accenture Chief Scientist Kishore Swaminathan. Created vision elements in 2007, 2008, 2009.
  
  
• Accenture Interactive Wall. I was part of the original team that designed and built the wall, including its hardware infrastructure, software infrastructure and custom touch-detection system.
  
  
• WhiteSpace. I was the primary creator, designer and developer of the WhiteSpace software prototype. A synchronized (software) whiteboard for teams of any size.
  
  
• Hyperviewer (Accenture Information Source). 50,000 documents visualized and searchable, all on one screen.
