Osmo Educational Gaming Systems

Osmo is a leader in the educational technology (EdTech) sector, specializing in tangible play systems that bridge the physical and digital worlds. Founded in 2013 by former Google engineers Pramod Sharma and Jerome Scholler, the brand became famous for its iPad-compatible peripheral that uses a mirror-based reflective AI technology to allow children to interact with physical objects like tiles, drawings, and blocks within digital games.

While the intellectual property and design originate from the San Francisco Bay Area in the United States, manufacturing is predominantly handled by specialized electronics facilities in China to ensure global distribution and scalability. The products are widely used in both home settings and classrooms to promote STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Math) learning among young children.

In 2019, Osmo reached a significant milestone when it was acquired by the Indian multinational educational technology company BYJU'S (Think and Learn Pvt Ltd). Under this ownership, Osmo has continued to operate as a distinct brand within the larger BYJU'S ecosystem, aiming to expand its high-tech interactive learning tools to international markets including India and Europe.
