Bambu Lab Breaks Into the World of Toys With CyberBrick™

Toy cars, tractors, fire trucks or radio-controlled airplanes—these toys are enjoyed worldwide. But what if you want to turn play into an enjoyable learning time to spend with the family? This is the idea that prompted MakerWorld, the community platform started as a spin-off of Bambu Lab, to launch a new brand on KickStarter: CyberBrick™. CyberBrick is a modular ecosystem that combines 3D printing, electronics, and programming to create interactive toys and gadgets that will launch on KickStarter on March 15 and shipments will start the following month.

The goal? To enable users, both children and adults, to “learn by playing” and explore programming and electronics while deepening their knowledge of STEM disciplines. It would fulfill the dual goal of developing the child’s and adult’s skills while providing moments of family fun and play.

MakerWorld chose to launch this new brand on Kickstarter to assess the market potential and identify the audience interested in the universe of customizable gadgets and games. The CyberBrick team also plans to gather valuable feedback from makers to refine the offering and thus develop an increasingly community-friendly experience.
