21. The Tablet Toy that Gets Physical
讓孩子動起來的平板電腦玩具配件
Like many kids, Pramod Sharma’s daughter loves the iPad. But “when her face is glued to the screen, six inches away, all day long—I wasn’t too happy,” he says. (Studies have shown that too much screen time can lead to attention problems and obesity.) So the ex-Google engineer and his former colleague, Jér?me Scholler, devised a way to bring virtual play back into the real world. Osmo’s “reflective AI” attachment enables the iPad camera to interpret physical objects—allowing kids to mimic an onscreen pattern with colored tiles, for example, and get rewarded for doing it correctly (while also refining their motor skills). 與許多孩子一樣，普拉莫德?夏爾馬的女兒喜歡玩iPad。但是他說：“每當她目不轉睛地盯著屏幕，距離只有6英寸(約合15厘米)，而且整天都是這樣的時候，我就不是太高興?！庇谑沁@名前谷歌工程師和他以前的同事杰羅姆?舍勒想出了一種讓虛擬游戲回歸現(xiàn)實世界的方法。Osmo公司的“反射式人工智能”附件使iPad上的攝像頭可以捕捉實物目標，從而使孩子可以仿照屏幕上顯示的圖案擺放彩色模塊，并在擺放正確的時候獲得獎勵(這同時也能提高他們的運動能力)。
22. The Coaching Basketball
智能化教練籃球
This basketball comes embedded with nine sensors and a Bluetooth chip that sends performance data to a mobile app—allowing players to measure, say, the arc of their jumpshot. If something’s off during game play, the voice of a coach (via the app) can even implore you to “go faster” or “snap your wrist.” “We get excited when we see someone improve,” says Michael Crowley, whose company, InfoMotion Sports Technologies Inc., makes the 94Fifty Smart Sensor.
這種籃球內(nèi)置了9塊傳感器和1塊藍牙芯片，后者可把表現(xiàn)數(shù)據(jù)傳送給一款手機應用，從而使打球者可以作出自我評估——例如他們投籃的弧線等。如果比賽不順利，那么手機應用里甚至會有一個教練的聲音要求你“加快速度”或“手腕用點勁”。生產(chǎn)94Fifty智能傳感籃球的InfoMotion體育技術公司的邁克爾?克勞利說：“看到有人提高了球技，我們就覺得興奮?！?/p>
