=History= LightUp started as two final projects in Paulo Blikstein's “Beyond Bits and Atoms” course at Stanford University. Over the past year, LightUp have done several design revisions of the hardware and have tested the prototypes at events like Hack the Future and Stanford SPLASH, as well as talked to teachers at local schools about introducing LightUp in their engineering electives. They are currently working with factories as part of the hardware startup accelerator, HAXLR8R, to go from prototypes to producible product and hope to do a wide scale pilot in local schools by the end of the year 2013.
