Log-Log is a balance-beam shaped interface that makes use of shifts in the user's center of gravity as the input, and an interlocked interactive video system.

Spread under the balance-beam is a video image of water that ripples in response to the movement of the person on the beam, such as walking. A strain sensor is attached in two locations on the bottom surface of the wooden beam to measure the flexing and distortion of the wood. By this research, it is possible to turn various things existing around us, even such natural objects as plants, into interfaces by simply attaching sensors to them.
