Interactive Coloring Boards

T-Ink Technologies Conceptualized Touch-Sensitive Coloring Tools

New York-based technology firm T-INK Technologies collaborated with David Forrest from Kinetic Underground to create a series of products such as interactive packaging, touch-sensitive game boards and coloring mats that are also keyboards.

These toy concepts included T-inkeractives Color and Sound products. At first glance, the product appears to be an ordinary coloring sheet and clipboard. However, the "illustrations" are actually comprised of interactive circuit boards. The product, titled Color N Sound, will have an educational function, using the fun activity of coloring to help teach children math and spelling. The audio feature is triggered by the children coloring on the interactive circuit.

Adults and children will definitely enjoy this coloring product for the stimulating way it provides educational value.
