on analogue sentiments

People are immersed in environments flooded with digital displays.
Smart phones, digital Kiosks and other Interactive digital interfaces no longer provide a new experience to its users.

In this digital era, people are nostalgic for analogue experiences. Touching, feeling, and hearing the interactions with a physical object can be essential for a new service experience.
We developed a device that integrates the analogue experience of turning a page of a physical book, with the vast interactive, multimedia functionalities of a digital media.
DBK creates a whole new experience that cannot be found in any other devices by combining the best of both analogue and digital realms.
