Black Friday's MUST-HAVE TOY this year (that nobody asked for!) 🪀

Product visualization tech is so good right now that if your brainstorm doesn’t produce quick iteration, people will ask, “is your Wi-Fi down?"

With AI as a realized process we can: cue instant visuals, cue laughter, cue decisive pivots—and then refine!

For our Black Friday “Must-Have” toy experiment, we gave AI everything it needed to feel alive: reference imagery, a product style sample from the LEGO Group, and a prompt library that helped guide the AI to generate succinct and clear point-of-view images of our headquarters as a buildable limited edition theme set.

Our prompt went something like this:
👨‍💻“Hello AI, our souls are trapped in these offices from 9–5. Could you make it a toy? Blocky, please. Only 4 or 8 colors–blue, yellow, white, red. Place figurines of children on the roof, children love roofs.”

What once required days of design exploration can now be tested with a handful of sentences and a willingness to direct the outcome. That’s the power of AI: working at the intersection of preparation, perspective, and knowledge, where ideas sharpen. With AI, we take more shots—and miss far less!

With guidance from our creative team, AI-generated concepts can render almost pitch-ready, and even its misfires help us test, explore, and uncover challenges before a real opportunity arises. Just ignore the smoke and explosive puttering noises...

So… have an idea to be Black Friday’s hottest toy? Put it through AI and see what happens! But not to spoil the surprise—this year, it’s us!

What happens when touch doesn’t connect?

In the laboratory, we’re building a full scale replica of a touch interface, a controlled testing environment that helps us identify interference, errors, and bottlenecks long before installation begins for an exhibition interactive.

The system, built with Kinect hardware and Python based software, creates a sensor field that detects touch with high precision, essential for top-secret exhibition currently in development. By capturing depth data, the system identifies anomalies between successful touches and errors, ensuring that every interaction is fast, intuitive, and accurate.

When the interactive eventually is fully installed on location, every second will matter. Visitors will expect seamless access to information, so our goal is to design an interface that feels effortless, from trigger to tap. Through precise depth calibration and fingertip tracking, we make sure that when someone points, the system responds exactly as intended. No room for error, not even a fingernail's length!

Our latest prototype uses depth and RGB data from a Kinect sensor to establish a baseline map of the surface. By comparing fingertip positions against that map, the system detects taps when a finger comes within about 2 cm of the surface. If hand tracking fails, a custom depth-based fallback keeps detection consistent. That’s the kind of proactive testing we’re all about (think of it like blasting the system from every possible angle just to see what'll rattle loose!)

While the current version still requires refinement to concrete a final interactive, the proof-of-concept at this stage already demonstrates accurate and reliable touch detection, bringing us one step closer to flawless interaction design!

Pre-Visualization Opens Doors (and Hearts) at BHC!

At Berks History Center we’re in the thick of planning and conceptualizing one of the most exciting museum redevelopments in recent memory! Our design team is giving the current visitor journey a fresh new look and planning huge improvements to the artifact exhibition!

To share our plans with the public, we used Pre-Visualization, a powerful tool that helps us bring our ideas to life, giving museum board members, and the curious public of greater Berks County, a peek behind the curtain of what’s in store!

The public was invited to experience the museum in its current design and provide opinions on proposed redevelopment plans. Visitors were treated to a video of planned 3D renderings of the space reimagined, and the contrast was eye-opening! Seeing the proposed improvements in real time helped everyone connect the dots between what is and what could be!

Our team was onsite, sharing insights and explaining how our designs honor the region’s rich industrial and agricultural heritage. We’re not just redesigning exhibits, we’re planting new seeds for storytelling, rooted in the legacy of Berks County.

It belongs in a museum!

Okay we love Indiana Jones...guilty, but we also love concepting, designing, and building exhibit quality spaces. So, during the pandemic we identified the need for private video conference spaces in our office. So, we figured why not feel a little bit like Indy.

Whether it's the "Cross of Coronado" or the "Holy Grail" the décor of this meeting pod is priceless...even though the walls are made of carved Styrofoam and all the jungle plants are plastic.

All of our meeting Pods are fantastical, but team members who hang out here "choose wisely."

Comments from a snack manufacturing legend fills our cups…. er, pretzel bags

In another snacking confession, Unique Pretzels mastermind, Justin Spannuth, admits to “actually” enjoying meetings with NeoPangea. Spannuth says, “They are fun” of NeoPangea and goes on to elaborate, “…and usually the highlight of my week.”

Rumor fueled fans of NeoPangea scrutinize that this type of “upbeat positivity” could inevitably spoil NeoPangea for other potential partners. Only time will tell for certain…

In a private interview with Brett Bagenstose, CEO of NeoPangea, he shared, “I completely understand why Justin said the comment he did. I want him to know, our cup runneth over with Gratitude and pretzel splits and the weeks without him are filled with eternal sadness and empty pretzel bags.”

No further questions could be answered over the loud crunching and jovial laughter heard on the scene.

A MountAIn of Possibilities ⛰

We took our favorite mountain and brought it to life in 3D using Blender. Then, we fed that render into Runway and had a blast reimagining the same scene with prompts whipped up in ChatGPT. One moment it’s a snow-covered peak under a bright, sunny sky; next thing you know, it’s dusk, with less snow, more fog, or a jungle of vegetation creeping in. Atmosphere and scene shift with ideas and words. What used to take days now happens in minutes. Is it perfect? Nah, not yet—but we’re close. And yeah, we may have gone a little off the rails with some wild ideas, but if you know us, you know we can’t help ourselves.
