All ya'll:

I am looking for information on ball machines. I don't know what else to
call them. These are the interactives where you learn a process by moving
plastic balls [the kind used in ball pits]. I.e. Orange picking, apple
picking, or a water pump.

At the Orlando Science Center you pick oranges.
In Richmond, you pick apples.
At the Bob the Builder traveling exhibit you move "water" at the water pump.
[This was produced by the Children's Museum of Indianapolis.]

I am assuming that the examples sited above are all custom built. However,
if anyone has sources for hardware it would be greatly appreciated.

I am also looking for examples of similar exhibits [photographs].

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you,
