STROFIFOS is made with two different main materials: plastic and wood. Each one has different textures, helping stimulate the senses. Correspondingly to the facts that wood is a very friendly and naturally textured material and that plastic is easy to domain. At the same time, it uses different color lights to capture attention.

Materials: Wood (Cedar), Acrylic, 3D Print (PLA), different color cables, motion sensors, circuits, RGB Diodos LEDs, and one Arduino MEGA 2560.
