Bandages for kids are commonly printed with bold colors and loveable cartoon characters, which may make these ones from Bandai seem like nothing out of the ordinary—yet these bandages can be paired with a smartphone to reveal augmented reality animations to make kids feel better.
The Bandai bandages are available in versions that feature both Super Sentai warriors or PreCure characters that come to life in AR to offer comforting words about one's small wound.
The bandages for kids ages three to six feature characters from two upcoming shows—Kishiryu Sentai Ryusoulger and Star Twinkle PreCure, a Japanese magical girl anime series. As an added treat for kids, the bandages provide more than just soothing words and even feature some of the voices that they will recognize from the animated TV series.
