The cubeSearch concept is a physical search engine for multiple children. A range of physical cubes represent different keywords or search criteria; by moving the tracked cubes on a floor the connected wall display will visualize book covers matching the position of the different cubes on the floor, e.g. medium horror, some love and large type set. Using the print and location cube the resulting book covers can be printed for the child to remember what the book looked.

The ideas from this design concept migrated into the storySurfer project which in a slightly different way engage children physically in their search for books.
