Features

Custom circuit boards and software for interactive exhibits

Turn your meme-changing, press-generating idea into a physical reality with a custom designed and built phidget.

What's a Phidget?

A phidget or physical-widget is a physical representation of a software control. A custom made phidget can allow you to use a physical object such as a button, dial, or sensor to control aspects of a customized software program.

How are they made?

You describe your vision for your interactive exhibit / experience / installation and we will recommend the various buttons, dial, video cameras, touchscreens, speakers and computers that you will need. We will then choose an approriate controller card and if necessary design a prototype relay board to control the physical object. The final step is programming the software interface to connect the controller card to the on-screen media / sountrack / video.

Do you have any examples?
