"Move-it” is constructed by some clip-shaped devices that have sensors and actuators. With this system, users can make sticky notes move by just clipping it.
The recognition system using the photo interrupter module as a sensor, each clip device can recognize which note has been pinched by calculating how much infrared light is reflected by the grayscale image printed on the flip side of each note.
And the actuation system that is a combination of a coil-shaped shape memory alloy and polyolefin sheet that is embedded in the clip device can provide a sufficient motion. Just writing something like "meeting 16:00" on paper using a digital pen and this system, the user can get a physical reminder without any complex setting.

Move-itは付箋紙への書き込みと小型のクリップにより付箋紙からの動作の提示を可能にするシステムです。本システムによりユーザは専用の付箋紙に書き込みを行うことで動作や条件の設定を即時的に行うことができ、さらに付箋紙を変更することで条件や設定の修正、また破棄することも容易になります。ウェブ上の情報との組み合わせによる条件設定も可能なので、例えば書き込んだ用事の相手がSkypeにログインしたタイミングで動き出せば、要件の伝え忘れもなくせるかもしれません。
