Augmented reality ed-tech company Osmo is launching Osmo Live, a way for teachers to engage elementary school kids with a combination of livestreamed remote online sessions as well as offline homework.

Targeted at kids from kindergarten to fifth grade, the Osmo Live service was fasttracked so that parents could keep their kids occupied during lockdown while they work from home, said CEO Pramod Sharma in an interview with GamesBeat. “We stay at the intersection of play and learning,” Sharma said. “It’s a huge step for us as a brand. Parents need this now more than ever.”
