Lots of « story boxes » exist on the market, this one adds the ability to upload your own content and share it with friends with physical cartridges.
Lots of «story boxes» exist on the market (Lunii, Merlin, Yoto, …), they all miss 2 things:
- capacity to create / upload content
- share stories between boxes
They all say:
- "no wifi" but most of them use it to upload new stories
- you can add your own content: but in fact, you're limited to recording yourself your own story for an app
- you can share moment with your friend, but you cannot share the stories on your box, that's a shame...
- kids are autonomous, but they all required parents to add new content
This one adds theses abilities:
- upload content on cartridges (you can record your own stories on your PC or use contents you already have)
- share and exchange it with friends / with friends, brothers and sisters, classmates…
- use physical cartridge like in the 90’s with our old music tapes ;-)
hello,
I wanted my kids to be able to exchange their preferred content. And be able to physically "feel" the content by manipulating it.
Other boxes have “closed” ecosystem, mine is more opened, with “blank” cartridge you can fill with your content (like blank tapes you can record).
So basically tapes or cartridges system respond to the physical aspect. The “dock” allows to connect the cartridges to a PC and upload new content.
The last part is to actually have a box nobody has ;-) and to DIY it.
