The MultiBall Interactive Gym uses lights, sounds and video to transform any open space into an engaging, immersive video game playground.

Besides a truly unique physical activity experience, the MultiBall Interactive Gym can be used for multiple events at the YMCA because of the dynamic projection, lighting and sound. These include: Youth Nights, Family Fitness events, Summer camps, Sports events, Theater/Assemblies, Movies and Education.

Many YMCA locations across the country use the MultiBall Wall for Senior Fitness classes, Women’s Boot Camps, interactive on-demand fitness classes and as lighting and sound for classes like Yoga.

In addition to the MultiBall Interactive Gym, the Dane County YMCA also installed the Beam Projection Game system, and the FunBoard Education Tablet in the childcare rooms.

The Beam Interactive Projector is a gaming solution that turns any floor or wall into an immersive, active and highly addictive fitness gaming experience for kids ages 2 and up. The Beam projector casts one of the hundreds of exclusive games onto the surface, while advanced optical motion sensors allow kids and adults alike to play with swipes, taps and gestures along with the immersive speakers. You need to move to play the games!

The FunBoard is an interactive game table for children. It’s just like a tablet, but bigger and better.  The Funboard can be laid on a table, used on the floor, or mounted on a wall. Children are drawn to the engaging content and get quickly absorbed in the games and the will to explore. What makes the Gaming Touch Table unique is that several children can simultaneously point, draw, click around and search for information and it promotes their collective learning

“The Dane County YMCA has evolved into a hub of positive activity for the members of its community, and it’s a place where people of all ages come together to strengthen families, meet neighbors, friends, reach personal goals, and now PLAY with the addition of the revolutionary Interactive Gym,” states Mark Westover, CEO of the YMCA.
