The concept behind LEGO Fusion is simple, yet brilliant. Basically, it turns your everyday LEGO based creations into online virtual playground. You can create stuff with LEGO like you always do and then snap a picture of it using the app on your smartphone or tablet and then edit that structure online, virtually without having to mess with a single piece in the real-world creation.
“Children have always imagined their Lego creations as immersive worlds which come to life for hours of role-play and adventure,” said Ditte Bruun Pedersen, senior design manager at Lego Future Lab.”Recently, smartphones and tablets have become a popular platform for empowering game mechanisms that kids love. Lego Fusion brings these two favorite play patterns together.”
In case you missed, Google recently launched a similar Chrome Project that allowed you to create LEGO creations virtually using your browser. LEGO Fusion is is quite similar to that, but with better features. Check out the video to see how it works.
