About Elastic Change Bàscula de banh

Elastic Change es una bàscula de banh concebuda per mostrar lo pes d'una manièra fisica. La susfàcia es facha de silicòn doç e balha l'impression d'una esfèra bombada quand una persona i puja dessús. La susfàcia s'enfonza jos la carga, çò que fa que lo cambiament de valor se pòsca tanben sentir jos los pès. Las personas de pes diferent crèan d'enfonzaduras de prigondor diferenta. La basa es de metal estampat, e un captador d'acièr al mangan en forma de G mesura de cambiaments tan pichons coma 50 gramas. La bàscula fa 300 per 300 per 80 milimètres.
