DIS is research unit operates inside the Design department (INDACO) of Politecnico di Milano University and work with innovation/design/development of products, services and systems, targeting sustainable results.
DIS research unit is leaded by Pr. Ezio Manzini.

François Jégou is visiting professor at DIS and developing research activities on synergies between sustainable development and augmented environments:
- open source services and collaborative platforms for informal networks of citizens;
- interactive installations for the participative and collaborative work in large public spaces;
- augmented meeting spaces for collaborative work between distant teams.

Specifc activities are the co-designing of scenarios and the definition of new product-service system through the use of quick visualisation techniques (i.e. video-sketching, evidencing, story-boarding…) and co-design methods with users (i.e. ethnographic-design; distant co-elaboration of scenarios; spotX…).
