Sleeping Dragon: A Playful and Multi-functional Projection Story Machine

Unleashing Imagination and Ensuring Peaceful Sleep for Children

The Sleeping Dragon is a unique and innovative projection story machine designed by Hongkun Cha, Mengyao Li, and Jingyuan Li. Inspired by dinosaurs, this adorable device combines storytelling, projection, sleep aid music, and night light functions to create a magical and soothing experience for children aged 2-6.

This one-of-a-kind sleeping projection story machine is designed to captivate children's imagination and help them overcome their fear of the night. The round geometric appearance of the product adds a touch of warmth and affinity, making it instantly appealing to young ones.

With a collection of story cards featuring different themes, the Sleeping Dragon synchronizes sound and pictures to enhance children's interest and concentration. The combination of storytelling, projection, and music creates a multi-dimensional experience that stimulates their senses and fosters cognitive development.

One of the standout features of the Sleeping Dragon is its sleep aid music function. The gentle and natural sleep music helps babies relax, creating a peaceful environment for them to fall asleep. The night light function further adds to their sense of security, providing a soft and comforting glow throughout the night.

What sets the Sleeping Dragon apart from other similar products is its versatility. It seamlessly combines four functions into one compact device, freeing up space and simplifying bedtime routines for parents. The design team behind this innovative creation has carefully considered the needs of both children and parents, offering a convenient and engaging solution.

The Sleeping Dragon is made using high-quality ABS plastic and silicone, ensuring durability and safety for young users. The integration of RBG photosensitive radar recognition technology enables seamless audio and video synchronization, while the IC physical sensing structure allows for automatic screen switching.

Measuring at 118*141*164mm and weighing 0.75kg, the Sleeping Dragon is designed to be portable and user-friendly. Its push switch on the right side allows for easy switching between modes, while the buttons on the back control volume, sleep aid music playback, and pause functions. The night light can be activated with a simple tap on the device.

The Sleeping Dragon project commenced in December 2022 in Baoding, China, and was completed in February 2023. The design team's dedication and creativity have resulted in a product that brings joy and tranquility to children's lives.

The Sleeping Dragon has been recognized for its exceptional design and functionality. It was awarded the Iron A' Design Award in the Baby, Kids, and Children's Products Design category in 2023. This prestigious accolade is a testament to the product's well-designed, practical, and innovative nature, meeting the highest professional and industrial standards.
