Dance of Sky Carver is a hybrid game that combines a physical controller with a digital game. Players change the way the spaceship moves in the game by manipulating a paper-craft spaceship. The spaceship‘s movement and altitude directly responds to the player’s physical gestures.

2. Come up with a concept for your own Alt+Ctrl Interface #
I want to make a robotic parrot that can perform some basic interactions.
What’s the defination of a Robot?
Something can sensing, processing and actuating.
For example, when someone passes by, it says “Ciao bella,” which I think will require an infrared motion sensor(PIR sensor). I also want it to move around under human control, but stop automatically when it reaches the edge of a table , this might need a distance sensor or a proximity sensor.
