Projected Hopscotch Courts
The Dream Beam Eliminates Chalked-Up Sidewalks
Are kids actually still playing traditional games after being spoiled with high-tech toys such as Wii’s and Nintendos? Transforming the old for the new, designer Hey-Lim Jeon came up with the Dream Beam. The Dream Beam projects hopscotch courts on any floor. Okay, part of the fun for playing hopscotch was actually messing up the sidewalk with your kickass drawings but hey, this is a cool gadget to show off. How well this works in clear daylight still remains a mystery to me though.
