LUNA BALL
During the Toys in Space expedition, NASA astronauts brought a basketball balloon and basket into orbit, to experiment the sport in a zero-gravity context. It definitely wasn’t a success.
Our Luna Ball installation intends to help people understand gravity and free-fall concepts, inviting them to turn into basketball players !
Luna Ball is designed from an original funfair basketball machine, which design and interactions with people are adapted and personalized.
To do so, a tracking system triggering sound sequences is integrated to the machine, creating a challenging and humoristic voice-over that will interact with the players.
