Kinetics

Welcome!

Welcome to project Kinetics! We are a team of 4 students from Entertainment Technology Centre, Carnegie Mellon University. We are dedicated to design, develop and implement SMALLab learn lessons/games to be used in 3rd to 8th grades so that educators can introduce/reinforce learning concepts in various subjects.

SMALLab:

SMALLab (Situated Multimedia Art Learning Lab) is a mixed-reality learning environment, which uses motion-capture camera(s), short-throw projector(s) and wireless controller(s) to immerse players in dynamic game-based scenarios, where they can interact with each other and digital game elements in real time in shared physical space.
