KIBO is a 3D-printed art board designed to be inclusive for visually impaired children. It allows them to create tactile, colorful designs by screwing textured, color-coded bolts into a grid. Each color has a unique texture, making it easy for blind children to identify colors and giving them the same creative freedom as sighted kids.
KIBO features a tactile board with a grid of threaded holes, where bolts in five distinct colors — red, blue, yellow, green, and black — can be inserted. Each color has a unique texture, allowing kids to identify them by touch. At the bottom of the board, there's a key — written in both English and Braille — that matches each color name to its unique texture.
This design does not require supports to print, it is compact, modular, and no tools are required for assembly.
This concept was one of the winners of the 2025 Make:able Challenge — an assistive technology competition focused on empowering people with disabilities. More details here: weareprintlab.com/blog/makeable-2025-winners/

⚠ Note 1 — Assembly Instructions
Assembly instructions are included in the downloadable files. It includes a 2D drawing, a bill of materials, and material specification.
⚠ Note 2 — Ongoing Prototype
This design has gone through a few rounds of iteration and has been tested with children, but it is still in the prototyping phase. I'm continuing to refine and improve it, so any feedback or suggestions in the comments will be highly valuable : )
⚠ Note 3 — Recommended Age
Suitable for children 4 years and up. Not recommended for children under 3 due to small parts.
License
This is my original design, and I’m sharing it as open source under the CERN-OHL-P license so anyone can easily access it, improve it, and help it reach those who need it. The CERN-OHL-P is a very flexible open-source hardware license. It allows anyone to use, copy, modify, and even commercialize the design. The only requirement is attribution — meaning you must credit the original creator when sharing, publishing, or distributing the design or any modified version.
