 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.
