Unique Properties
TBased on the principle of visual persistence, the weightless humidifier uses LED lights and precise control to create the illusion of liquid backflow, and the magical effect of water droplets forming the opposite direction, enriching the interactive experience of the humidifier. The product has a practical air humidification function and incorporates artistic design, which is suitable for modern home environments and becomes a unique decoration in the space.
Dimensions & Packaging
The humidifier measures 478 mm in height and 260 mm in diameter

weightless humidifier, optical illusion, interesting design, air humidifier, home decor
Production Technology
Visual persistence technology creates the illusion of liquid flowing back through the strobe technology of the LED light source. The miniature water pump and precise water flow control ensure perfect synchronization of water flow stability and light efficiency. The transparent material molding process ensures the delicate light transmittance of the shell and enhances the overall visual effect.
Design Challenge
The visual illusion is precisely controlled to ensure that the light and water flow are synchronized to avoid errors in the illusion effect. The water pump and LED light are precisely matched to ensure the visual effect while requiring functional humidification. The material selection is combined with aesthetics, and the shell material needs to have a high light transmittance to meet the aesthetics of modern home design.
Research
Based on visual phenomena, this study designs and implements a weightless humidifier. By precisely controlling the water flow and the stroboscopic effect of LED lights, it creates a visual illusion of water droplets flowing backwards, which functionally meets the actual needs of air humidification. This study aims to explore the combination of visual art and practical home appliances, and use visual illusion technology to make everyday products interesting and creative.
Inspiration
The design is inspired by visual illusion art and the gravity of nature. The design breaks people's cognition of conventional physical phenomena through the backflow of water droplets, creating an artistic effect full of fun and surprises. It takes the phenomenon of visual persistence as the core technology and combines it with the humidification function to bring a new visual experience.
Project Duration
It starts on May 1, 2022 and ends on June 25, 2022, and is located at Lu Xun Academy of Fine Arts
Operation Flow
The loss-in-weight humidifier is easy to operate. Users can adjust the function of the humidifier through the touch screen or the smart control panel. The LED lighting effect is synchronized with the operation of the water pump. Users can set the speed and brightness of the liquid return to create a different visual experience.
