Panda: Modular Climbing Wall for Interactive Home Entertainment

Designed by Zheng Xu, Panda is a rich interactive children's home climbing system, integrating projection-based interactive games into the climbing process and modularizing the traditional wall to provide a fun and engaging experience for children at home.

The Panda system includes a customized wall frame, interchangeable handholds modules, and interactive projection, allowing children to experience rich and fun interactive climbing games at home without leaving home. The rock point module is easy to install and adjust, maintaining children's interest in sports with interactive games.

The wall frame is made of wood, while the handholds module's shell is made of ABS plastic through an injection molding process. The interactive game in the demo was developed by team members in Unity, offering a variety of different types of games for children to enjoy.

In order to use Panda, the user needs to measure the wall size and determine the wall design. After the wall frame is completed, the installation and commissioning will be carried out by a person. Panda provides users with a variety of different types of games, offering interactive experiences through swinging limbs, touching the projection or rock point, and receiving feedback through sound and light effects.

The project started in August 2020 and finished in October 2021 in Hangzhou, and was exhibited in Shanghai UXD Award in December 2021. The design was awarded Bronze in A' Sporting Goods, Fitness and Recreation Equipment Design Award in 2022.
