Nagual

Turn Home Waste Into Fertilizer in 1.5HRS

 

Leaving food waste in your home can make it smelly and unpleasant. It gets even worse in summer, but it's difficult to throw out garbage every time it comes out. We’d like to introduce “Nagual”, which immediately removes food waste and turns it into eco-friendly compost. 

One of the problems with food waste is that it is bulky. Nagual shreds food waste and then heats to dry it, reducing its volume by up to 90%. Any food waste can be disposed of, such as fish, meat and eggshells.

Also, Nagual's method of crushing and drying is similar to the process of making soil. It can be sterilized by heating and drying at 126 degrees (Celsius), and the odor generated during the treatment process is also removed with charcoal. The processed food-waste can be used as compost.

SwitchBot Curtain

Make your curtains smart in seconds

 

If you look at a rich house in a TV show or movie, you can see an automatic curtain that can be moved with a remote control. When you press the button, the curtains automatically open and you can see the wonderful scenery, I think everyone would want to have automatic curtains in their house.

However, installing automatic curtains costs a lot of money, and it is cumbersome to remove the existing curtains and install them again.

‘SwitchBot Curtain’ is an idea product that turns regular curtains into automatic curtains in 30 seconds. Our curtains become automatic by simply attaching a small device without screws or additional installation equipment.

 Most can be installed on curtain poles or rails, and you don't have to worry about batteries because it can be charged with solar power. By linking with the smartphone app, you can easily open and close the curtains at home and outside, and you can also set them to move automatically at the time you want. Also It’s possibly set to be adjusted by itself by detecting day and night using the sensor inside the device.

Mookkie

The A.I. powered pet bowl

If you have multiple pets, feeding each one at right time is not easy.

In particular, when office workers have to leave for work, it is difficult to ensure each pet is given with their food in right amount and time. Also, it is hard to monitor whether one pet eats all of the food due to competition. 

Mookie” is an innovative product that can control pets' meal time using its facial recognition function. The time and amount of meal given for a specific pet can be controlled using this product, by being able to recognize the shape of an animal approaching the bowl.

When a pet registered for the bowl approaches, a covered lid will open and allow the pet to eat its meal.

As you can set the product to open its lid specific to one pet, any competition and stealing of food between pets can be prevented.

This product will be extremely useful for those who live alone and have pets.

Studies on smartphones having a lot of germs were published long ago. These days, anxiety has increased due to the aftermath of COVID-19, and various types of sterilization devices are being developed. However, charging the battery of the smartphone is cumbersome, and separate sanitizing is even more bothering. This product is a idea device that can sterilize ultraviolet rays at once when charging at the same time.

▲ lexon-design.com

It is designed in the shape of a vase, and when you insert a smartphone, charging and sterilizing begin. The product has received QI certification, an international standard for wireless power supply widely used in smartphones, and supports high-speed charging, so it takes about 3 hours to fully charge.

At the same time, sterilization is possible with ultraviolet technology (UV-C LED). UV-C is a short-wavelength ultraviolet ray that destroys the viruses and DNA of  bacteria and kills cells. Scientifically, it has been proven to be effective in eliminating the virus type A (H1N1) which causes flu. Since the device is made of ABS material that is resistant to shock and heat, it can be safely used by the nature of ultraviolet rays that cannot penetrate glass or plastic.

Transforming chair

 

Introduce chairs that allow you to change your posture in various ways.


We usually forget the importance of correct posture. We urgently try to find a solution only after experiencing pain in the neck, shoulders, or lower back. There was also a time when the standing desk became a hot topic to work.


So what about a chair?

Simply use an assistive device that is mounted on an existing chair to correct your posture. There are also many functional chairs that can be slightly adjusted in height or backrest angle. This time, I will introduce a chair that allows you to change your posture more widely.


Laying chair, Altwork Station,


alwork.com


The Altwork Station is very similar to the one you usually see in the dental clinic. It is an electric chair that can be almost laid down with the large adjustment radius at the front and rear of the chair. The angle from the monitor to the desk is adjustable, and the magnet is built into the desk so that the keyboard and mouse will not be fallen. Even turning the monitor sideways creates space in the front, so home-based workers can use the monitor for other purposes, such as home training.


BeYou, Transforming chair with 10 ways you can sit,



indiegogo.com


BeYou is a chair that can be changed in various ways, allowing you to take more than 10 different positions.

You can manually move the back and armrests of the chair. It can also be used for personal work, meetings, or to take a break. It is made of solid wood and can withstand up to 180kg, and the seating area is wider (90CM) than ordinary chairs (65-70CM), so even a big person can use the chair. Also it’s a kit type of product and can be assembled by yourself in about 20 minutes.


The two products are very different from how they work, to material or shape. In addition, there will be a variety of transformer chairs. This is an idea product that will be of interest to anyone who has had concerns about their usual posture!

We'd like to Introduce a digital meditation guide that can even manage your health.

Core

The New way to Meditate


How many people do not feel stressed or depressed,

Especially these days, there are many cases of appealing for Corona Blue. Reality cannot be changed, so you will have to take good care of your mind. Digital meditation could also be a method. How about installing an app for meditation and trying it out, or relaxing with meditation music?

▲ hellocore.com

The Core is a tool used during meditation programs and a small device that measures the body's reactions during meditation. It is used with a mobile app and starts by selecting the desired program through the app. In the app, you can check the health information measured during meditation and listen to meditation music. In addition, when using the paid subscription service, various contents such as new programs are available.


▲ hellocore.com

First, install the mobile app and connect the app to the device via Bluetooth. Next, hold the device as if it were wrapped with both hands, and hold it with your thumb touching the electrocardiogram (ECG) sensor on the top. SESSION is a method of guiding using vibration and sound. It is recommended to wear earphones or headphones for effective meditation.

▲ hellocore.com

After completing the meditation, the information detected by the sensor is analyzed and provides the results. It shows you how your heart rate has changed during the session, and provides a heart rate variability (HRV). Heart rate variability is an index that determines your ability to adapt to changing environments, so the higher the number, the better. You can also check additional information such as how much focus you have been through during the session.

a touchy feely lamp

 

Introducing a lamp that makes you to feel a bond with others.

Lucon

A connected lamp kit for connecting people

Keeping distance has become a routine in the effect of COVID-19. It is not easy to maintain a stable life emotionally because you are isolated by others. In the past year, self-harm attempts and depression patients also increased. What if someone heartily agrees that you are holding up well? We still have to work alone and rest alone, but could feel like being comforted.

▲ kickstarter.com

This idea product is a lamp designed to feel a bond with others. However, you cannot see the other person's face or hear their voice, and you can share your heart with a gesture that looks like holding a lamp with your hand. Anonymity is guaranteed because the signal is transmitted only by the light and touch of the lamp.

▲ kickstarter.com

The lamp is a DIY kit type product that is easily assembled. It is motivated by a scene where people are putting their hands on each other. It responds to touch and communicates with other lamps over the network.

▲ kickstarter.com

First of all, tapping the lamp lightly turns the light on or off. Holding it for a few seconds sends a signal to another lamp through the network, and the lamp's light fades. All lamps will flash when connected to other lamps. At this point, if someone touches their lamps, the light of all lamps becomes stronger.

You can see if other people have reacted by the change of light. Although reality is isolated, it can give you a sense of security as if you belong to a community.

▲ kickstarter.com

There are various modes so you can use it like a mood light. We may be in a bitter situation that you should be alone, but it is an idea product in the Corona era.
