The Radiant² is an augmented game board that allows the user to interacts with a videogame by placing tangible blocks on the board and manipulating them.

The design aimed at creating a close link between the user's physical actions and their effects in the game, thus reducing the gulfs between the real and the virtual world.

The idea behind the Radiant² is born in the 2014, as a research for Tangible Game Interfaces at the University of Trento, and is designed to interact with a videogame called OHR.
