Remember the ‘StreetPong’ concept game from two years ago?
The designers behind the interactive game of pong have turned it into a reality—they developed a fully functional device and debuted it in the German city of Hildesheim two weeks ago.
Renamed ‘ActiWait’, it was installed at a street crossing and lets pedestrians play pong with a person on the other side.
Designers Amelie Künzler and Sandro Engel are planning to develop more variations of the smart traffic light button, and are currently raising funds on Indiegogo.
Watch ‘StreetPong’ in action below. Wouldn’t you like to play a fun game of pong while waiting for the lights to change?
