Description
Seems like a competitor to PartyStrands, generating a party playlist based on the preferences of who's there, though that only requires those partying to have a mobile, while this requires them to have wi-fi enabled players with special software installed...

Ever had a party ruined by your host's atrocious taste in music? Then you might welcome a system that polls the musical preferences of party-goers and creates a playlist to keep everyone happy. Developed by computer scientists at the University of California, Los Angeles, US, the Smart Party system relies on people carrying Wi-Fi-enabled music-playing devices. Software running on each device beams each user's playlist to a nearby computer, which is connected to an amp and speakers.
