myPiggy is a smart piggy bank that records the amount of money inside precisely with the help of electronic controls integrated in the base. A round LED colour display serves as the user interface. Together with the app, it allows for more in-depth interaction, such as setting savings targets, playing counting games or using the integrated clock function. Additional features include an integrated speaker, a snout that serves as a USB power bank and a curly tail that can be twisted out to withdraw money.
Statement by the Jury
myPiggy combines the iconic shape of the piggy bank with new digital functions. In addition, interaction is designed in a very child-friendly way.
