CONNECT A video game controller is an input device designed specifically to interact with electronic games. It is usually composed of buttons, directional pads, and analog sticks that allow players to control characters, vehicles, and other functions within the game. Some controllers may also include additional features such as motion sensors, vibration feedback, and wireless

CONNECT The circuit board is part of a creative interaction kit. This board allows the transformation of common objects into “commands”, which means they become touchpads. These objects send information to the computer just like input devices such as the keyboard and mouse. With it, we can create various projects, including a banana piano or
CONNECT Animation is an art form that creates moving images, giving characters or visual elements the sensation of life. It has evolved over time, from simple techniques to the complex 2D and 3D animations we know today. 2D animation involves creating illusions of movement through two-dimensional drawings, while 3D animation uses digitally manipulated three-dimensional

CONNECT Cartoons come to life when we add movement to drawings made on paper or in digital editing programs. Great artists like Walt Disney used this technique to bring their drawings to life. In computer animation, each frame is drawn separately and captured by computer graphics programs, allowing for realistic movements. Traditional 2D animation

CONNECT Communication between humans and computers is facilitated by programming language. This form of written language establishes a set of instructions and rules, known as algorithms, which are used to create programs (software). These programs are later translated or interpreted into a form understandable and executable by the computer. A practical example of this
CONNECT Digital animations transform images into motion, bringing characters and objects to life. There are different types, such as frame-by-frame animation, which creates the illusion of movement by showing slightly different drawings in rapid succession, and computer animation, which uses special programs to create smooth and realistic movements. Present in movies, games, websites, and
CONNECT Animations are like movies made with many images that follow each other quickly to create the sensation of movement. These images can be hand-drawn, digitally created, or captured photographically with real objects in different positions. Once created, these images are placed in a computer program specialized in graphics that uses animation techniques to
