Why DrawBo now?

Today’s children are the worst affected by the global pandemic — physically, emotionally, intellectually, and socially.

Schools and day-care centers are closed. Access to public playgrounds and recreation places is highly restricted, leaving the kids distraught and confined indoors, at the mercy of their laptops,television, and other electronic gadgets.Such an alarming increase in screen-time does not augur well for their health.

They need to break away from boredom and involve themselves in a creative activity such as drawing.Scientific studies have consistently proved that drawing nurtures creativity and provides therapeutic healing in children of all ages.

Dr. Charlotte Reznick, a child educational psychologist and an associate clinical professor of psychology at UCLA, says in her new book,

“Studies show that it (art) creates brain wave patterns that enhance the autonomic nervous system, hormonal balance, and brain neurotransmitters. While doing artistic expressive art, the body’s physiology shifts from stressed to serene.”

Drawing offers several benefits — it aids cognitive development, develops fine motor skills, improves language skills, and helps understand spatial reasoning and problem-solving.

Most importantly, artistic expression can relieve stress in children during these challenging times.

How does DrawBo teach kids to draw?

DrawBo uses Artificial Intelligence and Deep Learning algorithms to split the image into simplified lines and curves.The robot then proceeds to draw the picture in several simple steps.

This is how DrawBo does it, by splitting Drawing into Steps
