Coeno is a toolkit that provides an novel approach for using computers in office environments. The basic concept behind this project is to facilitate collaboration on computers. To achieve this, coeno provides a tabletop display that allows seamless interactions with other computers like laptops.

The coeno framework is a basis for all coeno applications.It is designed to allow fast development of tabletop applications for computer supported collaborative work.

Coeno one is an around-the-table application designed for presenting a storyboard using tabletop technology in combination with augmented content. It is based on the coeno framework and it is demonstration of the capabilities of the framework. The goal of coeno one is to present new ways of interaction and communication for the next generation working in spaces.

The virtual keyboard uses optical tracking to identify pressed virtual keys on a flat surface. The display of the keyboard is separated from the tracking, so it can be displayed on demand. The virtual keyboard can act as a mouse as well.
