iOO Climb turns every ordinary climbing wall into an augmented and interactive climbing experience. Thousands of boulders and routes can now be saved on a single wall, and browsed and played using a single remote control. Climbers can thus focus on their climbing experience, forgetting numbered stickers and colored stripes. Climbing routes are displayed only where and when it is needed.

Intuitiveness
Traditional numbered stickers and colored stripes are substituted with simple lines and shaped bull's eyes, providing a clean and intuitive climbing experience: no more numbers and colors to find and count.

Replay
Climbers can watch a replay of their climb, correctly juxtapposed on the climbing surface.

Durability
Once stored, routes and boulders can be browsed by everyone via remote control, and the absence of physical parts that can be touched, scratched, removed, makes these available for years.

Deployability
iOO Climb works with any traditional climbing wall, and with holds of every size, shape, color, and design.

Internet Powered
Identical climbing walls can exchange routes and boulders via the internet. With our standard climbing walls there is no need for trained personnel to track new paths, since iOO Climb comes with hundreds of already tracked boulders and routes.

Games for Children
iOO Climb provides specific climbing games for young people, with customizable graphics of animals, toys, and funny symbols. A must for climbing lessons with children.

Front and Rear Projection Setup
iOO Climb works in front projected setups, for traditional already existing climbing walls, and in rear projected setups, with translucent walls, providing the greatest climbing experience.

Requirements
A single iOO unit can cover an area up to 6 x 4.5 meters.
Maximum distance from climbing surface is 5.5 meters.
iOO unit (http://www.ioodesign.com) must be ceiling mounted.

Tested at/with +gaz (http://www.piugaz.it).
