About Dandelion Seed Luidspreker Lamp

Dandelion Saad is 'n luidspreker met 'n geïntegreerde lig. Die ontwerp is gebaseer op respek vir plante as lewende wesens. Die vorm verwys na drie stadiums van 'n dandelion se lewe: saad, groei en dood. 'n Holle glasbal word deur glasblaas gemaak en huisves batterye en LED-liggies. Magnetiese veldtegnologie gee die bal 'n gevoel van sweef bo die basis. Klank versprei in 360 grade, en 'n toestel kan via Bluetooth gekoppel word. Die musiek wat deur die luidspreker gespeel word, word aangebied as 'n simbool van die stil klank van die plant. Die sagte lig is bedoel om mense te help ontspan.
