Abstract :
We have developed a new idea generation support system, called GUNGEN-Spiral. GUNGEN-Spiral supports collecting ideas, saving ideas, sharing ideas, shaping ideas and reusing ideas. User can collect and input ideas in free handwriting using PDA. The handwritten data can be used seamlessly and consistently. We have applied this system on a trial basis. The results of experiments were shown below. (1) GUNGEN-Spiral realized collection of wide range ideas, collection over a long period, collection by dozens of people and storing and sharing the collected data. (2) We collected 456 pieces of data. Three among ten users took an active part in data collection by a PDA
