The IBM smarterplanet exhibit in Epcot’s Innoventions held its grand opening on Jan. 29, 2010 with a ribbon cutting featuring Mickey Mouse. smarterplanet offers visitors a behind-the-scenes glimpse of how technology is helping solve the worlds most complex problems. Hands-on interactive kiosks offer guests a match game that reveals societal and technological implications of creating a smarter planet. The exhibit also features Runtime, created by Walt Disney Imagineering, which transforms guests into personalized avatars as part of the video game experience. Players run, jump and dance through a timeline of ibm’s achievements in the history of computing, journeying from the Babbage computer, through vacuum tubes and chips and bits, to the Internet. Guests can also e-mail their personalized version of the game to any computer, extending the Runtime experience to their home. The exhibit is powered by a new Smarter Data Center.

So cool! It was about time Epcot had a new exibition. The game looks very good. At least it’s better than playing with a Mii.
