The weTable

Texas Sea Grant

Using infrared technology, the weTable transforms an ordinary tabletop into an interactive interface. This affordable public participation tool allows teams to collaboratively explore and use computer-based data and programs in a workshop setting. The weTable enhances what people use daily – tables and pens – while the supporting technology works quietly in the background. This means that participants can use the interface with very little instruction, and it allows them to work with what matters most in a meeting – data, maps, and their fellow participants.
The weTable tool is now used nationally thanks to Texas Sea Grant.
