PoetryBall utilizes random input to play music or speak poetry when users throw or kick it around. Each segment on the ball is a button, which when pressed, triggers sound heard on overhead speakers. The buttons act independently of one another and each is programmed to send a unique signal when pressed. PoetryBall implements radio technology to send data wirelessly to a computer across the room.
