Awesome!: reaDIYmate, Build An Internet-Connected Thing In 10 Minutes


reaDIYmates are fun Wi-fi paper companions that move and play sounds depending on what's happening in your digital life.

Assemble them in 10 minutes with no tools or glue, then choose what you want them to do through a simple web interface. Link them to your digital life (Gmail, Facebook, Twitter, Foursquare, RSS feeds, SoundCloud, If This Then That, and more to come) or control them remotely in real time from your iPhone.

You don't need any creative or technical skills to build and use your reaDIYmate, but if you want to go further, we made it super easy for you to change designs, write applications, or add inputs and outputs.


To make assembly easy, reaDIYmates come in two parts: a brain and a body.
  • The body contains a mini servo motor and a speaker and is made out of strong, high-quality paper,
  • The electronic brain is safely enclosed in a plastic box including Wi-fi connectivity and a push-button.





To get you started, two collections of bodies are available: Paper Toys and Kinetic Sculptures, created by recognized international artists and designers.
