About
10+ years of interaction design,
from China to Spain,from corporate to startup,
across hardware, software, space, and brand —
all asking the same question:
how do people connect with the objects around them?
Give everyone the ability to bring any toy to life — build it with your own hands, shape it with your own words. AIMO is a modular AI kit: attach sensor modules to a plush toy you already own and shape its personality through plain language, no new toy required. A working prototype, not a concept — a full pipeline from hardware to app, tested with real families and shown at Elisava's Grad Show. Built on three original ideas: prompt-as-model, emotional ownership through assembly, and a safety architecture placing guardrails at both ends of the AI's instructions to protect children. AIMO also gives loved toys a second life instead of producing new plastic. More at aimokit.com
