Step up your educational efforts with our interactive floor game system designed for educational applications.
This new system provides educational content in game format using a pressure sensitive floor pad. Using the system is simple...step, dance, or jump to interact and play the game.
How It Works: Custom programming allows for virtually any type of content to be put into game format. The system projects the game interface directly onto the floor pad. Pressure sensors underneath the durable foam floor pad act like a mouse or buttons for the game. The sensors are similar to those used for the popular dance dance revolution (DDR) game.
