One DeKalb County school is unveiling a new state-of-the-art, interactive playground.

Peachcrest Elementary School, at 1530 Joy Lane in Decatur, will host school district officials for a tour of its new playground on Feb. 28 for an hour beginning at 9 a.m.

Officials said the playground includes basketball, yoga, dancing space as well as space to practice math and history to exercise bodies as well as minds.

Lü, the playground maker, transforms traditional environments into interactive spaces using traditional materials and audiovisual equipment. The new Peachcrest playground features a giant wall projection with lights and a sound system, and a 3-D camera system that turns that wall into a touchscreen platform.
