This helps in putting her creative energy into the making of robots which aid in daily needs all around the home.

She stated she still wants more photos of her dog. Especially from the year 2020. She now thought, what if she cut out the middle man and got a way that she could take photos herself. And this brought the idea and birth of the dog selfie booth. 

This powered paw photo selfie booth is one of the first to have been created that would be powered by a pouch. Scraps always follow her to the workshop. Now she has her robot. That's so cool you know. 

The Head of Marketing and Product development Lena Dixen from the LEGO Group stated that Lego Mindstorms was created to aid young inventors to increase their building confidence and increase the rate of coding techniques. It is here to give them the necessary tools to make whatever they imagine.
