Last updated: 20 July 2026

Supported devices and browsers

Draw In The Air works on:

• Desktop computers with webcams (Windows, Mac, Linux)
• Laptops with built-in cameras
• Tablets with front-facing cameras (iPad, Android tablets)
• Modern web browsers: Chrome, Edge, Safari, Firefox

Best practice setup guidance

For the best experience:

• Ensure good lighting so the camera can clearly see hand movements
• Position the camera so children can stand 1-2 meters away
• Use a plain background if possible to help with hand tracking
• Ensure children have enough space to move their arms freely
• Test the setup before using with children

Known limitations and how to mitigate

Camera quality: Lower quality cameras may have reduced tracking accuracy. Use the best available camera and ensure good lighting.

Lighting: Poor lighting can affect hand tracking. Ensure the room is well lit, and avoid backlighting (bright windows behind the child).

Background: Busy backgrounds can sometimes confuse the tracking. Use a plain background when possible.

Distance: Children need to be within 1-2 meters of the camera. Ensure the camera is positioned appropriately.

Multiple children: The platform works best with one child at a time. For group activities, take turns.
