4th Year, Summer 2020
Product Introduction
Connect the real world to the digital world and play ball on video chat!
Design Sprint Objective
-
Design a physical game using Arduino components and write code.
-
Due to the outbreak of Covid-19 this was a remote summer studio with limited resources.
Design Goal
I wanted to design a game that would close the gap between online interactions during a time of global isolation.
Engaging with the physical world through an online connection and video chat
is one step closer to a sense of physical interaction between remote players.
Hail Mary Buzzer Beater is remote toy, that creates engaging online social interactions.
