PlayShifu has created a new immersive educational augmented reality gaming system called the Plugo which offers a tactile digital gameplay system designed to enhance STEM learning. Watch the demonstration video below to learn more about the unique AR system which is this week launched via Kickstarter to raise the required $25,000 needed to make the jump into production.
Plugo is described as a “gaming system fueled with the power of augmented reality that comes with four gaming kits: Quest, Count, Link and Steer. No wires, no electronics or additional hardware; our gaming system requires minimum effort to set-up and play.”
Features and Benefits of Plugo
Plugo stands out in the educational gaming market due to its unique combination of tactile and digital elements. The system is designed to be intuitive and engaging, making it easy for children to dive into learning without feeling like they are in a traditional educational setting. The four gaming kits each offer distinct learning experiences:
- Quest: Focuses on problem-solving and adventure-based learning, encouraging children to think critically and make decisions.
- Count: Aims to improve mathematical skills through interactive challenges and puzzles, making math fun and accessible.
- Link: Enhances logical reasoning and pattern recognition, helping children develop essential cognitive skills.
- Steer: Improves hand-eye coordination and spatial awareness through engaging physical activities.
Early Bird Pledges and Availability
Early bird pledges are available from $35 for the starter Plugo kit with delivery to certain countries expected to take place during March 2019. This makes Plugo an affordable option for parents looking to invest in their child’s education. The starter kit includes one of the four gaming kits, allowing parents to choose the one that best suits their child’s interests and learning needs.
PlayShifu has emphasized that with Plugo, children can interact and play using various kits. They won’t even realize they’re learning math, vocabulary, dexterity, logical reasoning, critical thinking, and so much more. This seamless integration of play and learning is what sets Plugo apart from other educational tools.
Moreover, the system’s design ensures that it is easy to set up and use. There are no wires, no electronics, or additional hardware required, making it a hassle-free experience for both parents and children. The use of augmented reality adds an extra layer of engagement, bringing the games to life in a way that traditional educational tools cannot match.
