Yury Gitman teaches a class about incorporating electronics into toys, he calls it “Making Toys: Playful Experience Design Through Interactive and Wireless Techniques.” This semester they’re having a public open house to showcase (and play with) the toys they’ve created during the course. There’s RFID, Arduino, and included source code. If you’re in New York, head over to Parsons for the fun:
