Airwood

Airwood is an assembly drone kit designed for children and adults. The four-axis drone uses a frame made of composite basswood board, cut into thin two-millimeter pieces by a laser cutter. Users assemble the wood boards and the electronic parts by hand to build both the drone and the remote control. Modular controllers, motors and batteries allow several frames and appearances to be created from one set. The drone supports indoor hovering, aerial photography and graphical programming. The certified wood reduces the use of plastic and metal.

ASD Children Educational Kit

Saturday, 29 August 2026

Dwarfs

Dwarfs is an educational kit for children with autism spectrum disorder aged six to twelve who study in ordinary schools. The kit consists of an Emoboard and small blocks called Emobjects. A social worker guides the play. The child looks at an Emobject, touches it and places it on the Emoboard, which then plays a sound linked to a negative emotion. The child guesses the emotion and checks the answer cards, then selects another Emobject that soothes it. Sight, touch and hearing are used to support emotion expression and control and to encourage communication.

Curious Gastronaut

The Curious Gastronaut is a card game that invites children and families to explore food through play. Following prompts on illustrated cards, players gather ingredients, combine them into bite-size edible experiments, name them and examine them with all five senses. Recipes and reactions are then rated and recorded. The game can be played with real food or purely through imagination, in solo, collaborative or competitive modes. No specific dishes are named, so players invent from the ground up. The compact box suits small hands and travel.
