Google Web Lab In London Science Museum Brings Chrome Experiments To Life!

With a novel idea, 'Web Lab' is a feature brought to us by Google and the London Science Museum. It is an year-long exhibition that brings to life a series of interactive Chrome Experiments. If you get a chance to visit this museum, you get to play with five unique experiments. The beauty of it is that to make it a global museum exhibit, Google lets online participants visit #-Link-Snipped-# and interact with the same installations. So, even if you have know clue about what a WebSocket is or how HTML5 Canvas works, you would love it.

Among the five experiments, the Universal Orchestra creates music with the internet-powered eight-piece robots. Then, the Sketchbots captures your photo online and sketches it in sand, while a Data Tracer is a map that traces where the world's online information is physically stored. If that doesn't already amaze you, check the series of web-enabled periscopes called the Teleporter, through which you can instantly access the world. And lastly, the ??Lab Tag Explorer gives you a real-time visualisation of all Web Lab visitors from around the world that groups and categorises participants in incredible ways. Isn't that just super-awesome?

The Beta version of Web Lab has already been launched. It has also been opened in and will be there till  Summer 2013. Check out the video and feel mesmerized -
