[ CHALLENGE ]
Building a technology product for children introduces unique challenges:
Kids lose interest quickly, so the device must be fun and responsive.
Safety is critical, requiring secure electronics, strong casing, and non-toxic materials.
It must survive drops, hits, and rough play.
Parents expect educational value, not just entertainment.
The design has to hide all complexity, so children interact naturally without seeing the technology.
Chambo needed to be safe, durable, intelligent, and playful, while remaining affordable and easy for families to use.
