Smart Doll is a completely handmade doll that originates from Tokyo, Japan. She stands 60cm (23.6 inches) tall and is an articulated fashion doll designed as a creative platform for anyone, regardless of age. The Smart Doll is ideal for photographers, artists, clothing and accessory designers, videographers, stop-motion animators, and anyone looking for a reliable and photogenic travel companion.
These dolls offer an immersive sensory experience that combines auditory and tactile feedback, providing a balance of articulated posing, stability and aesthetics.
Smart Doll's design is deeply rooted in Japanese culture, drawing inspiration from anime and manga. The company's products and philosophy are based on the principles of Japanese Wabi-Sabi design, which emphasize naturalness, imperfection and unconventionality. This approach to design ensures that each Smart Doll has a unique, natural feel that embraces the imperfections and imperfections that come with the handmade process.
Smart Doll aims to address the issue of limited representation in the fashion doll market by offering dolls that reflect a diversity of skin colors, cultures and physical characteristics, including dolls with limb differences and medical conditions. They embody the beauty and diversity of the unique human form, with a special emphasis on high quality and craftsmanship to ensure their long-lasting use.
Smart Doll has partnered with Hollywood giants such as Warner Bros., Japanese animation studios such as Sunrise, the Japanese government and consumer brands as part of its business and operations. Smart Dolls embody such characters as Supergirl, Batgirl and Naruto and many other characters and people both real and fictional.
Even after clothing sales have declined since free patterns began, Smart Doll manufacturers continue to provide owners with the tools they need to learn and be creative. Our commitment is to provide the resources and tools necessary for maximum development and self-expression. This is one of our unique features that sets us apart from other doll manufacturers.
Smart dolls represent a unique choice among fashion dolls, different from the popular polymer or vinyl options. Heavy resin dolls require regular fastening of elastic cords to maintain the integrity of their parts, while traditional vinyl dolls require constant tightening of screws to hold the pose. While these features may appeal to collectors who like to take their dolls apart, the goal of the Smart Doll is to eliminate the need for constant maintenance so owners can focus on their creativity.
Thanks to the built-in tactile feedback mechanisms of the internal skeletal frame, Smart Dolls can stand independently and hold poses without additional support.
The internal skeletal frame, known as "Evolve", uses triangular and fillet structures that provide geometric strength and effectively absorb loads from axial, torsional, bending and transverse forces. These functions have been thoroughly tested using load cells. One of the attached photos shows the lower leg of the "Evolve" skeletal frame, which can withstand over 400 newtons (40 kg) of force.
The skeleton is the basis of the smart doll, which allows it to pose and hold its pose. The importance of this component cannot be overstated, so we pay special attention to its strength to allow a wide range of motion, but maintain enough flexibility for dynamic posing.
The Smart Doll was inspired by the mascot character Mirai, which translates from Japanese as "future". In the early years of the startup, he used the slogan "With Smart Doll, the future is in your hands", which had several meanings.
The first meaning was simple: by owning a Smart Doll, you have the ability to influence the future (Mirai) with your own hands. But the tagline also reflected a broader vision of a future where products reflect the diversity of humanity and not just satisfy the needs of the majority of consumers. In this future, products will be designed to last, not to create waste, and companies will prioritize the well-being of their employees, not sacrifice them to meet the needs of the market.
Smart Doll is a revolutionary product in the world of fashion dolls that combines high-tech developments and refined craftsmanship. These intelligent dolls, created with love for details and inspired by the multifaceted concept of the future, open up new opportunities for creativity, self-expression and representation of diversity.
Smart Dolls expand the concept of beauty and represent the diversity of human forms, cultures and identities. They are designed to shift perceptions of fashion, standards of beauty and acceptance, giving everyone the opportunity to find a doll that reflects their uniqueness and individuality.
All in all, Smart Doll represents a new era in the world of fashion dolls, where technology and art merge together, and the creative possibilities are unlimited. These smart dolls are reshaping the perception of what they can be and opening the door to a future where everyone can be represented and discover their uniqueness. With Smart Doll, your creativity knows no bounds, and the future of the doll is in your hands.
