Using the interactive CANDO game: A step-by-step guide

Starting the interactive CANDO game: Step-by-step guidance for playing with two players

The interactive CANDO element is a two-player game that creates a vibrant and energetic space with constructive competition through the simultaneous presence of two players on either side of the platforms. To start the game, each player must stand on one side of the device on the large boxes at either edge of the element in such a way that:

• The first player stands on platform B1
• The second player stands on platform B2

These platforms are symmetrically placed at both ends of the interactive CANDO element and play a key role in detecting movements and interactions of the players.

How to use the CANDO lighting game

Using the CANDO lighting game is very simple and engaging so that any user can interact with it; this game can be ready for use in less than 5 seconds and starts in three game phases:

1. Find the starting position: Each player must stand on the specific platform (B1 or B2). These platforms are on either side of the device and detect your movements, playing a key role in the game.

2. Activating the system: After both players have stood on their platforms, the colors under each person’s feet begin to change. The beehive sensors are sensitive to user movements and with the first jump, select the user’s chosen color.

The vibration and specific lighting effect signal the start of the game.

3. Jump faster = More same-color platforms: After activation, the game displays initial instructions such that a light line is drawn to the central platform, and after that, any user who starts to jump faster on their platform can turn more platforms to their color and win the game!

Under each platform, precise vibration sensors are installed that detect the jump movements of the players. These sensors, with high sensitivity, register every jump and transmit it to the central system. Thus, when a player jumps on the platform, the system automatically executes the desired action. This feature transforms the game into a truly interactive experience between individuals.

To start the game, players must simultaneously stand on their respective platforms and begin to jump. This action activates the interactive system and the large motors will vibrate under the users’ feet, bringing the game into an interactive state.

Selecting a color in the CANDO interactive game: How to choose and mix colors

After activating the interactive mode, players enter the color selection phase. In this phase, the CANDO element displays 3 primary colors: red, green, and blue. These colors are alternately displayed on the beehives, and users must jump at the right moment to select their desired color. The steps are as follows:

1. Display of colors: After the first jump, the CANDO element begins to display the 3 primary colors. These colors appear sequentially on the beehives.
2. Color selection: Players must jump again on the platform at the moment their desired color is displayed on the beehives. For example, if a player wants to select green, they must jump at the moment the color green is shown.
3. Confirm selection: After the first player selects a color, the second player must also select one of the two remaining colors. Thus, each player will have a specific color.

Mixing colors and reaching the finish line and announcing the winner

After selecting and mixing the colors, the game enters the main phase. In this phase, players must guide the final color to the finish line by jumping successively on their platforms. Each jump makes one platform change to the player’s desired color, and the faster they jump, the more platforms change to their color.

Announcing the winner in the CANDO lighting game:

The player who brings their color to the finish line is considered the winner of the game. At this moment, the platform beneath the loser vibrates using the 60 kg vibrating motors at a frequency of 3000 hertz. This vibration not only makes the game more exciting but also causes the loser to physically feel the defeat.

Practical example of the CANDO game execution

Suppose the first player has chosen red and the second player has chosen green. After combining these two colors, five small beehives of the first player will turn red and 5 small beehives of the second player will turn green, indicating readiness to start the competition.

1. With the first jump of the players, all the platforms between the two sides turn off. Then, with each jump, the platforms light up based on each player’s activity level and change to the player’s color. This mechanism enables players to clearly see their progress.
2. When the green and red colors meet, the player who jumps faster can take over the rival beehives and turn them to their color. This part of the game requires quick responsiveness and swift decision-making.

Key point: To take over the beehives, focusing on speed and precise timing is crucial.

Ultimately, the winner is the one who can claim all the beehives up to the end of the rival’s platform. After losing, a special vibration is applied under the feet of the loser to reinforce the feeling of defeat and motivate for another competition.

This game is highly engaging due to its combination of quick responsiveness, strategy, and a sense of competition. Furthermore, its unique user experience challenges players and encourages them to keep trying.

Overall, it is worth mentioning that the scenario of the interactive CANDO game, combining two-player competition, color selection, and final mixing, creates a unique experience for players. This game is not only entertaining but also strengthens the sense of competition for players through the use of vibration sensors and smart vibrations.
