Amazon held a new products and services launch for its Amazon Devices & Services business unit at its U.S. headquarters on Tuesday, September 28, 2021 U.S. time.
Amazon has developed services and content that expand the imaginations of children and families through simple, easy-to-use technology. Today, tens of millions of parents and children worldwide use Amazon Kids+ to watch, play, and learn from a variety of content in a safe environment, including parental control features.
Amazon has developed an innovative device that allows children to connect with their grandparents and other loved ones who live far away, calledAmazon GlowGlow, developed using Amazon's projection, audio, sensing, and video calling technologies, provides children with a safe and immersive virtual experience via video calling. Children can interact in real time with participants who have downloaded the Glow app to their tablets or other devices through a 19-inch touch-sensitive projection area that is projected in front of them. Glow is equipped with an 8" LCD display and a wide-angle camera, so children can see the participants on the display, and participants can see their children through the camera on their tablets.
With Glow, children can connect interactively with all participants while reading, drawing, playing games, etc., creating a virtual experience as if they were playing together in the real world. In Glow, children can play with the actual puzzles, while remote participants can build them together using the digital puzzles. In addition, the object scanning feature allows children to turn favorite toys into digital stickers for art play or to create original jigsaw puzzles, enriching children's imaginations and time spent with distant loved ones.

Amazon, the largest e-commerce company in the U.S., which offers products such as the Amazon Fire 10 HD tablet kids' model that enables reading and educational content for infants and toddlers, held a presentation on its new products and services. The new product is a device that allows children and their parents, relatives, or caregivers to remotely video call each other while looking at the same screen (the child's screen is projected onto the table top or other surface!) ) and enjoy content, drawing, and more.
In a situation where it is difficult to play face-to-face in the Corona Disaster, this seems to be a way to feel more of a sense of playing together, even remotely. Let's take a look at the details right away.
