Interactive Climbing Wall by Natural Interaction

 

Alessandro Valli has been hard at work creating this Interactive Climbing Wall. My daughter loves to climb the walls at the YMCA that we go to, she would get a kick out of this creation! You may remember the other creations by Natural Interaction that we featured on the past, Interactive Floor, Multitouch SensitiveTable Skin and Grid Interface.

"OVERVIEW
iOO Climb turns every ordinary climbing wall into an interactive  augmented
climbing experience. Thousands of boulders and routes can now be saved on a
single wall, and browsed and played using a single remote control. Climbers can
thus focus on their climbing experience, forgetting numbered stickers and
colored stripes. Climbing routes are displayed only where and when it is
needed.

FEATURE: INTUITIVENESS
Traditional numbered stickers and colored stripes are substituted with simple
lines and shaped bull’s eyes, providing a clean and intuitive climbing
experience: no more numbers and colors to find and count.

FEATURE: DURABILITY
Once stored, routes and boulders can be browsed by everyone via remote control,
and the abscence of physical parts that can be touched, scratched, removed,
makes these available for years.

FEATURE: DEPLOYABILITY
iOO Climb works with any traditional climbing wall, and with holds of every
size, shape, color, and design.

FEATURE: INTERNET POWERED
Identical climbing walls can exchange routes and boulders via the internet.
With our standard climbing walls there is no need for trained personnel to
track new paths, since iOO Climb comes with hundreds of already tracked
boulders and routes.

FEATURE: GAMES FOR CHILDREN
iOO Climb provides specific climbing games for young people, with customizable
graphics of animals, toys, and funny symbols. A must for climbing lessons with
children.

FEATURE: FRONT AND REAR PROJECTION SETUP
iOO Climb works in front projected setups, for traditional already existing
climbing walls, and in rear projected setups, with translucent walls, providing
the greatest climbing experience.

FEATURE: REPLAY
Climbers can watch a replay of their climb, correctly juxtapposed on the
climbing surface.

REQUIREMENTS
A single iOO unit can cover an area up to 6 x 4.5 meters.
Maximum distance from climbing surface is 5.5 meters.
iOO unit must be ceiling mounted."
