MEDIATE - A Responsive Environment for Autistic Children

MEDIATE (A Multisensory Environment Design for an Interface between Autistic and Typical Expressiveness) is a project from the Responsive Environments Centre at the University of Portsmouth, with the following aim:

"To design, produce, build, and validate an intelligent, immersive, multisensory, interactive environment that reacts to the unique user, and allows that user to create expressions of their own sensory experience: creations which can be replayed and communicated to others. This environment will be a transportable."

The project status page has more images, and a 500Mb movie (it's a shame there aren't any smaller movies).
