The founder of JABII, from Copenhagen, Denmark, revealed that the idea popped up in his mind when he was boxing with his son.

His son who was losing complained that the game is unfair unless he had a similar range and height like his dad.

This inspired Thostrup to join an extensible arm with a boxing glove. But as soon as he started working on the project, he got something more amazing in his mind.

Apart from just extending an artificial arm and making it a bit forceful, Thostrup decided to advance the game by introducing more technological features.

“I wanted to create that experience for my kids’ generation, not by stopping the digital wave, but rather by utilizing it,” he said.
