Inspiration

What if we could teach kids about STEAM with legos designs that are assigned based off of what legos they have?

What it does

Our app takes in pictures of legos from the user and returns projects you can make using them.

How we built it

We used swift on xcode to make the app and we used python to make the computer vision aspect that could pull data from the given pictures of legos.

Challenges we ran into

We had trouble integrating the computer vision aspect into our app.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

We are proud that we created a somewhat functional app in 24 hours.

What we learned

We learned how to code in swift from scratch.

What's next for OtterBlox

We hope that OtterBlox can become a full-fledged education product one day that can offer a database of tutorial videos and or a platform to promote lego kits.
