When I was a child, I naively believed that with an endless supply of gears and screws, I could create everything in the world. This fascination with machinery is not unique to me, many children are drawn to the operation process of various mechanical devices, some even try to make them by themselves. However, making mechanical devices is not an easy task. In our app, we use a simple method to guide children to make some simple and interesting devices, helping them understand the operating principles of mechanical devices. In this app, children can gradually master the skills of making various interesting mechanical devices through imitation, practice, and free creation. We provide a large number of tutorials to help children understand the principles of pistons, connecting rods, cams, and gears. We hope that while children enjoy the fun of mechanical creation, they can also learn to make some basic mechanical devices. This app is suitable for children over 6 years old. Features: 1. Provide a large number of mechanical device tutorials; 2. Learn mechanical principles through imitation and practice; 3. Provide a variety of parts, such as gears, springs, ropes, motors, axles, cams, basic shapes, water, sliders, hydraulic rods, magnets, triggers, controllers, etc; 4. Provide parts of various materials, such as wood, steel, rubber, and stone; 5. Children can freely create various mechanical devices; 6. Provide skins, allowing children to add appearance and decoration to mechanical devices; 7. Provide game and special effects components to make the processof mechanical creation more interesting; 8.

עוברת על כולנו תקופה קשה שכוללת בלבול ופחד, ריצה לממד או למקלט והמתנה מתוחה עד שהבום עובר. החלטנו לנסות ולעזור לילדים, לתת להם מעין שכבת מגן דמיונית, חוויה שתעזור להוריד מעט מהפחד ושתשנה מעט את הסביבה הפיזית בה הם נמצאים. הפעלת אפליקציה זו תאפשר לילד ליצור כיפת מגן וירטואלית סביבו או להגדילה ולהכיל בתוכה את כל בני המשפחה. החוויה כולה מתרחשת אצלכם בבית, בממד או בכל מקום שתבחרו כאשר ניתן לצפות בה דרך מצלמת הטלפון הנייד באמצעות טכנולוגיית מציאות רבודה AR מתקדמת. בסביבה המוגנת יוכל ילדכם לבחור חיית מחמד שתופיע לידכם, הוא יוכל להוביל אותה בחדר, לבקש ממנה יד, להאכיל ועוד וכמו כן לבנות ולהוסיף אלמנטים נוספים בסביבתו כגון פרפרים, בנייה בקוביות, משחקים בכדור ועוד עולמות תוכן רבים ליצירה ולהסחת הדעת. את כל החוויה ניתן לצלם כתמונה או הסרטון וידאו ולהפיץ לחברים ומשפחה. אנו מקווים שחוויה זו תאפשר לכם ולילדכם כמה רגעי נחת ובריחה למציאות טובה יותר בזמן המשחק.
