Alejandrina Hernandez – Stimuli
Stimuli, a mini robot for children's education, is the result of a collaboration with the Mobots Lab at EPFL which created Thymio. As a robotic assistant, Stimuli explores new alternatives to support the learning process of children, by fostering knowledge development and sensory stimulation. This innovative tool cultivates creativity and sensitivity, improving cognitive, motor, emotional, and social development by balancing digital and manual experiences. Through sound and movement generated by vibration, children can explore and understand material properties, enriching their growth. As Charles Eames said, "the best preparation is a general education" that fosters sensitivity to life's forces. Stimuli embodies this principle, offering a holistic educational experience.
