I personally thought the two showroom were quite nice, but our students thought the
Concentration... Are you ready? If so, let's go! Zero zero one one, one one zero zero.... |
Description: Here is a machine that can measure your level of concentration. You have to wear this headphone-looking headgear and somehow it measures your brainwaves. When you concetrate hard enough, a dynamite on the screen in front of you will blow up. The one who makes the dynamite blow up the fastest wins.
Review: It doesn't work on everyone. It didn't work when I put it on. Does that mean I have no brain... :( I was seriously concerned for a while there. The people who could be measured did not exactly know when they are concentrating and when they are not. Results seem to be random, since nobody was there to explain the science behind the machine. Some students said it seems to measure brain activity, not concentration. Not sure how someone can use this in a real life scenario though. Can you imagine "measuring" some kid's "level of concentration" as a substitute for an exam?
Musical Cubes |
Review: Awesome fun!! Now even your toddler can be a professional DJ / mixer. (S)he just has to be able to lift those cubes up. They are pretty heavy. This is great for people who just like to chill and sprawl out with some drinks. Turn the sound level up to dance. Start kicking blocks if you're throwing a wild party. You can even sit on the blocks. I see endless possibilities for this and I'd actually install it in my home if it was available.
"Sustainable" dance floor (?) |
Review: I'm not really sure how it works, and whether I was doing it right or not. The bar lit up at random intervals.
3D Image Decoder |
Review: Pretty interesting, but loses its appeal after 3 seconds beacuse our IPhones can already scan codes and download something instantaeously. Showing it 3D is just half a notch up from our existing technology.
Go again?Yes, to visit the WHOLE park, not just the Innonest and Funnest. I wish they showed us how they created "innovative designs and technology." That would be more educational and engaging for both students and staff.
