I always thought of slingshot as a toy especially created for naughty boys, as we often saw young boys sending stones or balls onto girls. But the SMS Slingshot designed by Berlin based VR/URBAN has changed my opinion. It is a handheld digital slingshot device that can send color splashes and text messages onto public screens. There’s a mobile built in the wooden device to store messages and a laser to blast those contents onto nearby screens via a projector. So just as what you can see from the video below, the user keys in the messages, shoots the slingshot, and then he/she can find a color splash appear on the screen with the text inside.
