PROTOTYPE Under the Influence Of Universe: Two solutions to introduce science as a fun and inviting subject.

The first platform is called Daily Magic – a system that sends texts about the wonders of the world. This solution is aimed towards those in remote areas.

The second platform, called Smart Guide, connects to smartphones and gives facts about one’s surroundings based on location. For example, it will tell the user about the natural elements in the near area, and how things like clay, plants and water can be used in science experiments to perform at home and in schools.
