MindScribe is a research and design studio in the University of Colorado Boulder's Department of Computer Science.We build tools for early childhood empowerment by combining the ancient art of oral storytelling with the emerging tech of voice interaction. Our first product is a multilingual stuffed animal robot that supports young children in crafting and communicating their ideas. Through reflective inquiry, our tools enrich and extend everyday creative play. MindScribe was recently named one of the Early Childhood Innovation Prize's "Top Ideas" because of its potential to create breakthrough impact for young children. As one of 15 Top Ideas selected from more than 570 ideas submitted from innovators in 100 countries through OpenIDEO's prize platform, we will share in $1 million in prize funding from Gary Community Investments (GCI) to help accelerate our impact.
