WallBo

Washing hands properly is one of the best ways to stop the spread of illness, but getting young children to do it thoroughly can be a real challenge. Standard reminders like posters and signage often fail to hold children’s attention over time. That is where WallBo comes in a friendly, portable robot buddy designed to make clean hands fun and educational.

WallBo acts as a patient companion right at the sink. Using smart sensors, it gently follows along as a child washes their hands and guides them step-by-step. WallBo shows each scrubbing motion on its screen and offers encouraging voice cues that adapt to the child’s pace, keeping them engaged from start to finish. By turning a daily chore into an interactive game, it keeps children excited about hygiene.

Parents and schools can rest easy knowing that child privacy is protected from the ground up. WallBo processes all visual information directly on the device itself, so no photos or videos are ever sent to the internet or leave the washroom.

Successfully tested in schools across the UK and India, WallBo helps children build healthy, lifelong habits offering an affordable, scalable way to bring life-saving hygiene education to every child.
