Fun Stuff: Dorkbot: Ping-Pong Simulations - Dec. 9, 2006
Dorkbot presentation:
PAVED Arts
424 20th Street West Saskatoon
Saturday December 9, 1pm
Ping-pong simulations. Facilitated by Tim Dallett
An interactive exploration of how different approaches of interface
design model physical activity, using table tennis as an example.
Participants will have the opportunity to play and compare physical,
'real' ping-pong, with the 'classical' 1970s/early 1980s Pong video
game, a 1990s transmitter paddle-based video game, and contemporary
'high-realism' table tennis video games (xbox 360).
