Gaming Lounge

Game Lounge

In the lobby space between the JHU Gaming Lab and the DMC, we have created a student-friendly lounge.  This space features comfortable furniture attractively arranged around a series of gaming stations.  Game stations include: a flat-panel display with parabolic speakers for directed sound that can accommodate a number of different game consoles; a classic arcade-style gaming table; and a beta-test kiosk that can be used for console play or to display student-developed games.

Resources for the JHU Gaming Lab and other gaming-related initiatives were gathered from existing equipment stock at the Digital Media Center and Department of Computer Science, personal donations by staff, software purchased by the Milton S. Eisenhower Library, a grant from the Smart Family Foundation managed by the Center for Educational Resources, an in-kind donation from Nvidia Corporation and a partnership with Valve Incorporated.
