The town of Zelenogradsk Located in the Kaliningrad region until 1946 was called Cranz (Kranz). Recently, its popularity has become more associated not with the sea and historical monuments but with its cats. This animal, beloved everywhere in the world, has become a city symbol for some time now. My task was to create its unique atmosphere on the embankment using interactive technologies that connect people and light. At the same time, in the concept, it was necessary to use a living symbol of the city - CAT.

The illuminated bench where the cat lives. The cat lives its usual cat life: sleeps, plays, washes. When someone appears, the cat reacts to their presence.

Scene "Catch the cat". Built-in sensors track the movement of human hands and transmit a signal to the control system, which prevents the player from catching a cat that runs around the screen. Try to catch it, because in reality, it is also not so easy.

Children's delight knew no bounds.
