Shellphone: natuurlijke luidspreker voor de iPhone

Mooi hoor en voor 60 dollar heb je een speakerschelp, mocht het Kickstarterproject van WAAM Industries slagen. Superbe geluidskwaliteit mag je er niet van verwachten, maar je hebt wel een heel mooi object in je kamer/kantoor staan.

The Shellphone Loudspeaker began as a simple solution to expand our phones’ musical capabilities. Our product functions on the same principle as cupping your hand around a speaker to direct and amplify its sound. Through much experimentation, we have refined the Shellphone Loudspeaker to its current functional and elegant form.[…] Our base material is the Whelk shell, a native species of the North Atlantic coast. The Whelk is harvested for food, and the shell is discarded. We receive our shells from a U.S. supplier that warehouses and sells them after the animal is consumed.
