The Suncubator is a solar-powered bed for babies, meant to absorb sunlight during the day and keep newborns warm while they sleep. In places where temperatures fluctuate greatly between day and night, the bed could offer safety and consistency.

15

Yibu wants to take screen time, not normally an engaging experience, and turn it into a more physical activity. Sensors inside wooden blocks let young kids interact with the Yibu game to experience how light, sound, and color interact with one another.
