Classroom walls and refrigerators are home to so many kids’ hand-drawn works of art, and now those drawings can come to life with Osmo Super Studio featuring Disney’s Mickey Mouse & Friends.

Augmented reality kids app maker Osmo has teamed up with Disney for the first time to combine its reflective artificial intelligence system with hand-drawn art. You simply attach the Osmo mirror to an iPad and start the Osmo Super Studio app. The app shows an image of Mickey Mouse that the child can physically draw on a paper notepad in front of the iPad. The app digitizes that drawing and animates the child’s image, putting into motion the static picture in a seamless way.
