Dilus is an electronic teddy bear by Brazilian industrial designer Bruno Oro de Abreu. This concept bear does more that mollycoddle ill kids; it has a holographic display that kids can use to surf the Internet, play games, attend remote classes, and make friends with other Dilus-using kids. It can display 2D and 3D images and has a customizable polymer body that can be changed according to design preference. The designer was inspired by cancer inflicted children who were hospitalized and bedridden for long stretches, which can be quite boring for the kid. Apparently some kids have already tested Dilus and hopefully hit the market by 2010.
