Curious Cars is a modular STEAM learning kit developed at SAM Labs, designed to help students build, code, and experiment with connected vehicles in the classroom.

As part of the startup team, I worked across the full design process from concept to production. The core product was designed in one month and shaped as a robust, teachable system for educators and students.

The kit is still for sale and has been used in thousands of schools across the US, supporting hands-on learning through creative coding and physical computing.
