OVERVIEW
pixelToy takes an experimental approach to controlling pixel mapped lights in a creative new way. The concept, born during ETC's Innovation Quest contest, was to develop a fun tool for creating dynamic content effects in a way that is both innovative and familiar. The user interface was designed from the ground up to be operated entirely via touch and multi-touch input devices. In an effort to keep the interface as simple and intuitive as possible, we set a goal to keep the entire application free of text. pixelToy can be used as a lighting instrument for live effects and can also playback pre-recorded sequences of effects. All effects are dynamically loaded as plug-ins when the application starts. Software developers are encouraged to write their own effects and share them with the community.
