Installation with wireless remote controls:

Visitors control animated characters and and virtual worlds
with wireless devices

installation > virtual cameras > actor's path


This installation takes place in a museum or during a live event in the street at night. Visitors can experience and participate to fully interactive virtual spaces. Participants are invited to use a variety of wireless devices including Pdas, PocketPCs ,cellular phones and custom made wireless devices to modify the virtual world projected on the screen in front of them. The players are using a touch-pad similar to a phone's pad to modify the virtual world or launch different scenes or to control characters inside the same scene. Three types of controls are offered to the players: 1- launching a scene, 2- selecting virtual cameras, 3- controlling the path of an actor, 4- switching characters.


Players in a room can launch a virtual reality scene from a Pda or from a cellular phone.
