Abstract
A resilient deformable sphere includes a laser projector positioned to project a grid onto the inner surface of the sphere and a camera positioned to image the grid. When the sphere is deformed, the grid is distorted. Distortions in the grid are mapped to input signals to a computer simulation or other computer program.
