Ping Pong anyone?
This installation is on the 3rd floor. Anyone can turn it on and start playing. The projected fish react to the ball when it hits the table.
PingPongPlusPlus builds on the PingPongPlus project (1998), a ping pong table that sensed ball hit locations and displayed projected visualizations based on the hits. We aim to publish and proliferate the design of our table. We are looking to set up a system of distributed ping pong tables that records the history of hits in a centralized database. From these records, we will explore ways to remix past games and present games to teach, inform, and entertain.

I love it!!! I want to play Ping Pong on a table like that. Very, very cool!
It seems like Ping Pong is having a comeback in many parts of the U.S. Lots of clubs are even starting to feature Ping Pong tables at their clubs. Ping-pong might be the next big thing.
Good news! You have taken it one step higher. Ping Pong was one of the sports of my generation and the ONLY one I could play with my asthmatic condition. I’m glad to see that it is coming back and that the people of this generation have an opportunity to get a taste for it. It’s a coordination sport and it can get very intense. When you get really good at it, after many moons of practice, it can get very competitive. Leave it to MIT! Ping Pong on steriods.
