Enjoy learning about the dynamics of flight, as you control a beautiful albatross soaring over the ocean.
Aero! is an educational toy designed to teach basic concepts of aerodynamics.
With two fingers, you can directly control the angle of an albatrosss wing, causing changes in lift forces and allowing the bird to ascend or descend. Once youve got the hang of basic elevation changes, you can switch to Flight Mode, where you independently control the albatrosss wings using thumb-sliders along each side of the screen.
This product is a conceptual study in developing a new form of education using games as the base medium.
