Play Your Way to Donations Through the Nog Pong Machine
Summer Luu — December 20, 2010 — Tech
The Saatchi & Saatchi LA agency is giving back to good causes this year by making donations through a machine called Nog Pong. The three lucky charitable organizations include the Amanda Foundation, Free Arts for Abused Children and New Directions.
Collaborating with Deep Local, Saatchi & Saatchi re-engineered a ping pong machine, replacing everything with home-made wiring and micro-controllers. Check out the Nog Pong video to see it in action.
