Outcome
The fruit of the project is the Timebow, a portable children’s timer that bridges the time of waiting for a longed-for event with the aid of light and an ingenious color concept. It helps children to easily recognize how far along an event already is, how fast an event’s progressing, or how long there is still to go before an event.
Vanmilia AG presented the Timebow to the public for the first time in July 2020. “I’m excited for direct feedback,” says the company’s founder.
