"Science Station"
This popular 3,500 square foot gallery offers intriguing
interactive displays, activities and learning stations
for children. Proto Productions used heavy duty components
to ensure continuing functioning even under use of exuberant
children. The Pulley Lift Demonstrator, which was engineered
for safety and durability, is a sophisticated system of
mechanics, hydraulics and pneumatics which counterbalances
the user's weight, prevents pinched feet and fingers, and
lowers them gently to the base. Learning stations and discovery
tables were fabricated. Eye-catching interpretive graphics
in conjunction with the various interactives motivate the
visitor to check out every niche.
