Review of Interactive Elements on the Web

These puppets are amazing! On the site the user has to control the movements of the puppet with the keyboard. All I can think about is how good it will look with music to it. There is also the option to record your own voice over the top of the puppet. The text on the website explains that the user has to 'let the puppets entertain you'.

To make this pysically we would put an animated puppet on a large screen. We would then attactch sensors to each part of the body, so the puppet on the screen would move with the user.

Puppet from the website:


Our physical version of a person with sensors to move the puppet on screen:

Two of the best games I have ever played on the internet...well in the past week. The jumping game is danerously addictive once you get the jumps right.

The racing game was quite hard to keep on track, although I did like the way it was made to look like google earth. The traffic lights are just as annoying as lights in real life.

To make this in a physical form it would be quite simple just to have a remote control car racing around a track. Although there is probably some alternative answer that will come to me.

Nice website, although after being on it I still have no idea what is going on.
