Introduction

Innovative Design and Educational Impact

FabulAI transforms how children learn and play through its use of 3D-printed, non-toxic mini-models like little astronauts. Placed on a wooden board, these models interact with a large language AI to generate stories, such as space adventures, enhancing children's knowledge and imagination. This dynamic toy allows children to command the story's flow using voice commands, asking for narratives about diverse topics like the ocean or space.

Components

Interactive Learning Experience

Children can create their own adventures by placing character models on the interactive base. Each new arrangement triggers the AI to weave the piece into a continually unfolding story, offering a personalized narrative experience that fuels imagination and cognitive development.

Parents monitoring

Parental Engagement and Extended Learning

Parents can enrich this learning experience by purchasing additional themed templates and character models through our app's smart store. This feature not only diversifies the stories but also enables parents to track their child's language development and interests, facilitating more effective educational support.
