All of the top designs feature a free Biba interactive system. Biba is a suite of augmented reality, imagination-driven playground games for parents to play with their children up to age 9.
Augmented reality markers on the playground can unlock new content, activate mini-games and reveal treasures when scanned by a smartphone, according to the Biba website.
Games range from obstacle courses to treasure hunts and other activities to keep children active on the playground.
“We’re never going to get away from technology. Technology is a huge part of children’s lives,” Sullivan said. “A lot of times it’s hard to pull kids away from their gaming screens. So this really gives them the opportunity to have both. They can have the outdoor activity as well as the technology.”
