Play Pong

Play Pong is an interactive installation at New Media Discipline academic showcase at 30th Convocation of National Institute of Design, India.

This installation explores the different possibilities of input device for controlling the movement of the paddle for hitting the ball in the pong game. We have used two different modes of input, which includes a sensor embedded wired band and a wireless band.

The wired band is embedded with an accelerometer for sensing the amount of tilt which guides the movement of the paddle.

In case of the wireless band, we used computer-vision library for detecting the movement, which is translated into the input signal for controlling the movement of the paddle.

Interaction Design Mario Game

This game was developed and appreciated by Nina Subnani. Here children can physically play the famous mario game. If child is walking on game board then mario will walk in computer. If child jump then mario will jumps and if child moves then hand mario will act appropriately. This was done by using computer’s PS/2 Port. Interfacing was done and appropriate hardware was developed.

Prithvi

Prithvi project presented in convocation 2007 is named “Prithvi”. Here by injecting probe to particular area of the earth we can get the information on display. This is achieved by using PS/2 port of computer by connecting through different probe switches. Software is developed in flash. Audio visual information is generated for particular action.

Convocation 2005

In convocation 2005 four projects were carried out succesfully.

1: Computerized Laser Light pattern generation.
2: Solenoid controlling unit on microcontroller time base.
3: Timer control for NID logo projection in air.
4: Microcontroller based random lighting effect.
