The Ramble

The Ramble is an immersive, multi-user visual playground where kids can experiment with light and color. As the lead developer, I built the real-time computer vision pipeline that transforms live camera input from the light table into visual effects on the projection wall. Physical knobs and buttons send sensor data to the app to control parameters such as LED light color and the intensity of the visuals, and to trigger modes including color, shadow, and distortion.

Art Tech Log

The Art Tech Log is a touchscreen kiosk station that invites kids to explore the properties of three materials — clay, metal, and wood. I led development of the interactive experience, featuring short videos, fun facts, and gamified activities that spark comparison and curiosity.
