1) The document presents OP, a programming toolkit that allows designers to conceptualize and prototype mixed physical-digital objects based on an interaction model.
2) OP includes software blocks that implement the concepts of the interaction model, like digital properties, linking modalities, languages, and devices.
3) The toolkit allows designers to systematically explore different aspects of mixed objects, like physical properties, input/output modalities, and compositions of links. This helps narrow the design space.
