MakieLab

MakieLab is building social toys & games from the same dataset.

We’re taking 3D modelling for games, and 3D printing for manufacture, and building a pipeline to automatically produce both from a set of characters, furniture, or similar game and toy objects.

Further fun: adding in embedded electronics, DIY-compartments and Creative Commons licensing for do-it-yourself toy modification. Data Freckles: facial patterns for dollface recognition!

We’re at pre-seed right now, f&f funding secured as we build our early pipeline. We’re seeking seed funding to build the game and delivery systems, to take our first toy-game product to live beta.

Thanks for reading!

MakieLab London.
