GameTime Recognized with DNA Paris Design Award

Designed for People, Designed for Play

GameTime’s Sensory Wave® Climber was recently recognized by the DNA Paris Design Awards. Developed and designed in partnership between GameTime and Charlotte-based design innovation firm, BOLTGROUP, the Sensory Wave won in the category of Design for People. 

GameTime's Sensory Wave Climber is the industry's first sensory-rich, inclusive climber and the recipient of a DNA Paris Design Award

 

The Sensory Wave Climber provides a fun and stimulating play experience for all children with a wide range of abilities and play styles. It is the first playground product to combine physical climbing with rich multi-sensory experiences. The undulating, sculptural design invites children to explore and interact. The molded-in grips, grooves, and supports are ergonomically designed to allow children to use a variety of techniques to climb up and over. And the interactive sensory modules enable play patterns that go beyond physical with fun visual, audio, and tactile interaction. It is also the first commercial playground equipment with an adaptive-switch sensory module for people with limited motor skills. 

Sensory Wave Arch is available in multiple configurations, in both freestanding and play system component styles

 

Thousands of entries from around the world were submitted for consideration. GameTime’s Sensory Wave Climber was selected by an international jury of the hottest creatives, thinkers, and makers with a mission: to discover and accolade the next fresh thing in Design. DNA is made to celebrate great design without borders! 

A wide range of tactile, auditory, and visual sensors, including sensors with adaptive switch technology, can be added to the climber to make it a sensory-rich play experience for everyone.
