Evolving ... Development of Physical 3D LEGO-Scratch Bricks

We have successfully designed and constructed the first version of the Physical 3D Scratch-LEGO Bricks. The sample was designed and manufactured through our own resources. Since this is the first in its kind, the design process took a lot of creativity and iteration.

We are now ready for mass production of the kits. We want to construct 10000 pcs of the kits for distribution to kids in underserved communities and communities that do not have access to electricity. These kits can also be used

We need the assistance of philanthropists and other organizations to produce the 10000 kits.
