Magic Carpet is an interactive floor projection system that transforms ordinary floor spaces into engaging, responsive learning, play, and therapy environments. Using motion tracking and projected visuals, pupils interact with digital content through movement, making learning active, inclusive, and motivating.
Originally developed to support pupils with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND), Magic Carpet is now widely used across specialist and mainstream education, enabling pupils of all abilities to learn, play, and participate together.
Magic Carpet projects interactive content onto the floor using a ceiling-mounted or portable projection system combined with motion-tracking technology. The system detects movement such as stepping, reaching, crawling, wheelchair movement, or assisted motion, allowing pupils to trigger effects, games, and learning activities simply by moving within the space.
The system can be used as a standalone solution or as part of the wider Magic Room ecosystem, integrating with wall displays, lighting, sound, switches, eye gaze, and AAC systems. This enables fully joined-up, immersive learning experiences that combine movement, communication, and sensory feedback.
Educators and therapists can easily select activities, adjust sensitivity, and tailor sessions to suit individual pupils, small groups, or whole-class delivery.
Magic Carpet offers pupils a whole-body, inclusive way to engage, supporting:
Magic Carpet is particularly effective for pupils who find seated or screen-based learning challenging, offering a natural and enjoyable way to participate.
In mainstream schools, Magic Carpet is used to support inclusive, active learning and to engage pupils who benefit from movement, interaction, and multi-sensory input.
Teachers use Magic Carpet to:
Magic Carpet fits naturally within EYFS, KS1, and KS2, where learning through play is central, and is equally valuable in older year groups as a targeted intervention or enrichment tool. By transforming floor space into an interactive learning area, teachers can differentiate learning without separating pupils, supporting whole-class participation while meeting individual needs.
For educators, therapists, and support staff, Magic Carpet is a flexible and powerful tool that supports:
Magic Carpet helps reduce fragmentation by bringing movement, engagement, and learning together within one adaptable system.
Whether used independently or as part of a Magic Room or Sensory Classroom Hub, Magic Carpet plays a central role in creating immersive, sensory-rich environments where pupils can learn, play, communicate, and develop together.
By turning floor space into active learning space, Magic Carpet makes inclusion visible, engagement meaningful, and learning accessible to all.
