FELT SOUND

Physical Interaction Design

Build and feel the sounds while you play with colorful wooden blocks on an interactive mat!

     There are a bunch of colorful wooden blocks on the top of a felt mat. While you place, stack, and knock down those blocks, you can make countless combinations of sounds in your own ways. Several sensors are embedded inside of the felt mat, and each sensor generates different types of sounds. As you place more blocks, more sound will be added in harmonious ways. The felt mat is specifically designed to turn an everyday object - the felt mat- into an unexpected sound playground for those who participate.
