About
Zoog is developing a new storytelling format designed to help kids and their families communicate across the technology gap. The companys platform allows anyone to bring a childrens book to life and become part of the story using innovative tools such as built-in augmented reality masks, machine learning, and animation-creation technologies. Zoog enables the creation of innovative videobooks that kids will love to watch and grandparents, parents, and even educators will enjoy making. The platform was designed with families in mind, particularly young children and their grandparents. Zoog aims to bring generations together in a meaningful way, even when they are physically separated.
