First revealed back in February shortly after Toy Fair 2015, we now know quite a few more details about Spin Master’s interactive Legendary Yoda toy, which has finally been made available for pre-order in the US on September 4 — AKA Force Friday.
Engineers have built an interactive display using a tabletop system and mounted personal screens made of fog. Projectors light the fog for each user and a camera system monitors movements, allowing each person at the table to manipulate and share three-dimensional data.
The Naemura Group’s projector brings a level of interactivity to standard projections via the ability to communicate with a light receiving device and the projected display.
