Project Overview

Kinect Darts Statue is an interactive promotional application created for a medical exhibition booth. Built with Unity and powered by the Kinect v2 sensor, the app offers a light, engaging experience to attract attendees through motion-based gameplay.

Solution

Players are invited to throw virtual syringes at highlighted zones on a 3D statue. Each player gets 8 attempts to hit 8 targets, scoring 1 point per hit. The application blends medical-themed visuals with playful interaction, turning the booth into a dynamic space that encourages visitor participation.

Impact

The installation successfully increased foot traffic, with many visitors drawn in by the intuitive and entertaining format. The game format provided a casual break that helped spark conversations and promote brand engagement.
