Smart Tiles

Smart Tiles is an interactive block board I developed during my first year of study at New York University's Interactive Telecommunication Program. The board contains a text to speech engine and can recognize custom wood letter tiles to speak letters and words.

This project was inspired by traditional wooden letter blocks and is fabricated from a mix of sustainably sourced birch plywood and 3D printed PLA components.
