| There are two available in the demo room. One looks more like the classic Newton's cradle, with string and a steel frame. The other uses pieces of injection-molded plastic in place of the string and a bigger plastic frame, but actually functions better since the balls are lined up better and the plastic doesn't dissipate as much energy as the string. | There are two available in the demo room.
