VERTICAL PLAYGROUND is an interactive installation that transforms body movement into playful visual interaction.

Projected onto walls or large LED surfaces, the installation reacts in real time to physical movement. Persons control dynamic shapes, objects or particles through the smallest movements of their hands, body or external elements such as a ball. Like a vertical ball pit, the installation invites visitors to move, interact and experiment. Every action triggers an immediate response, creating a direct connection between body and digital environment.

This intuitive interaction makes it accessible to all audiences — no instructions needed.

Visitors don’t need instructions; you’ll see it, when children interact with this installation — they simply move, react and play. This lowers the barrier to entry and encourages spontaneous participation.
