Zygote interactive balls
Posted by tangible on Friday, Mar 05, 2010
Emitting light via internal LED lights, this lightweight helium filled orb responds to human touch – changing colour as it is punched, tapped, slapped or squeezed. With the ability to communicate each touch back to a computer program, zygote can also be used to control and manipulate music and video in real time.
Conversely, zygote can be controlled dynamically via computer, making it a stand out piece of decorative light which requires no physical interaction to change colour.
This unique ball transforms otherwise ordinary events into multi-dimensional, interactive playgrounds that actively engage audience members in a holistic shared experience.
