Design concept shown in a fixed pose. The 3D view explores the form; effects and mechanisms are illustrative.
FROM ACTION TO DISCOVERY
How the interaction works
Follow the arc
Watch the intended pulse travel along the curved water path.
Find the landing point
The open bowl catches the stream and drains it back toward the table circuit.
A CLOSER LOOK
Perspective render
Explore the arrangement of an arcing segmented water jet, source nozzle, open receiving bowl and rim button.
LEARNING THROUGH PLAY
What visitors can discover
This concept brings trajectories, timing and observation into a shared water-table setting. Visitors can explore the idea at their own pace and compare what they notice with a partner.
Trajectories
A launched stream follows a curved route between two points.
Anticipation
Visitors predict where a moving pulse will arrive.
Observation
A gap in a stream helps make its progression easier to follow.
PART OF A BIGGER WATER TABLE
Planning Jumping Water Jet
Keep the button at the visitor edge and the full arc within the receiving area. Prototype the nozzle, pulse timing and catch-bowl alignment.
The arrangement can be developed for a museum, science centre or play space as part of a custom water table. Final dimensions, materials and operating performance are established during design and engineering.
