A Slower Speed of Light: Developing intuition about special relativity with games
2013
International Conference on Foundations of Digital Games
Preserved Fulltext
In this paper, we introduce A Slower Speed of Light, a game by the MIT Game Lab to help students understand and visualize these complex phenomena by artificially lowering the speed of light to walking ...
The effects of special relativity are not immediately observable in our everyday lives, so we tend to lack an intuition about them. ...
OpenRelativity provides the public (and, in particular, game designers) with a set of tools for simulating the effects of traveling near the speed of light, demonstrated by A Slower Speed of Light. ...
