Atmo

Atmo is a tabletop game console that blends physical and digital worlds. Our goal is to introduce tabletop games in a new, immersive form in arcades, entertainment parks and bars. Players can interact with the games using physical dice, tokens figures, cards, etc. The machine recognises what is happening on the table, and reacts to it with animations, light and sound effects - thereby making the play even more immersive.
