Human Joystick
A game in which the team is the controller. Players stand on a mat with coloured fields, and a camera turns their movements into the moves of a character on a big screen. The character goes wherever most of the team is standing.

How Human Joystick works
The team stands on a mat with coloured fields. Each field is one direction in the game. A camera tracks where the players are standing, and the software translates that into the character’s movement on screen. Human Joystick is one of our event attractions. In the same category you will also find virtual reality and NeuroSky.
To make the character turn left, most of the team has to move onto the left field at the same time. It cannot be done without shouting to each other and making quick decisions. That is why the game works so well for team building – and spectators have as much fun as the players.

Why Human Joystick works at events
Team building in practice
The result depends on how well the team works together. Communication and coordination are part of the game, not an add-on.
Fun for players and spectators
The game is fast-paced. Even those who are not on the mat right now cheer along.
Unusual controls
Few people have ever played without a controller, using only the movement of a whole team. That grabs guests’ attention.
Branding
We tailor the game, characters and surroundings to your brand, so the attraction also carries your message.

NeuroSky
NeuroSky is a game controlled by concentration. The participant puts on a headband with an EEG sensor, focuses, and the object on screen speeds up. Two players race at the same time while spectators cheer them on.
VR
VR stations with games, simulations and virtual tours. A guest puts on the headset, and the rest of the room watches what they see on a screen. An operator helps, explains the rules and keeps everyone safe.
Holographic pyramid
We scan a guest’s face in 3D and turn it into a hologram. The guest gets a link to the recording and a foldable pyramid. They place it on their phone screen and watch their own head in three dimensions.
Holographic assistant
A Hypervsn display creates a 3D image that seems to float in mid-air. The hologram welcomes guests at the entrance, announces agenda items or shows your logo. The content can be changed during the event.
