Here are two more high resolution photos of us behind the scenes at Living coasts. One is of myself testing out our interactive floor with its state of the art infa-red sensors in a system I designed and tested myself. The other picture is of Luke Angell testing out the 3 touch screens mounted into the walls.
If you cant get to living coasts, you can always add Ping the penguin to your facebook friends! He’s so cute… but he smells of fish!
I have been working really hard on an amazing new interactive floor for Living Coasts. It should all be ready by next Tuesday, and we are all really looking forward to it. Its been a really interesting job and i have learnt a lot about penguins.
I have been working on an “Eco-floor” that has life sized interactive ecology games where kids can clean up a virtual oil slick or rescue trapped animals. Its going to be interesting to see how people react to it. Rather than just being a simple use of interactivity for entertainment this floor has a real educational message.
