Turn your Ceiling into a Screen!

Have you ever been lying in bed mindlessly scrolling through your phone or attempting to watch a movie on your iPad, all while struggling to find a position that is even remotely comfortable? This is the problem that designer Wei Ying Luo identified, and his solution came in the form of Helion.

Helion is an ultrashort-through projector that takes the place of the ceiling light usually found above the bed. It projects the screen of the user’s device directly onto the ceiling, allowing for a comfortable viewing position. Using gesture controls the user is able to message friends, mindlessly scroll through social media or operate video controls.

The 100 inch, full HD screen combined with the inbuilt stereo surround sound ensures for an immersive and engaging experience for the user, all while they avoid the retina damage that can come with staring at smartphone screens. That sounds like a perfect set up, to us!

Got the sun in my pocket

helion_solar_battery_1

As much as I’d like, Solar Power hasn’t become mainstream yet. I guess not many people have really seen how useful it can be. Apart from solar panels on your roof, no one has really explored alternative uses for these panels. Why? Because they’re bulky, expensive, and for the longest time, they were breakable. But now technology’s solved all those problems for us. The Heli-on is a testament to that. Designed to fit into the grip of your palm, this pocket sized wonder has its own flexible solar panel rolled up cozily into a cylindrical outer casing. It also has its own inbuilt battery that allows you to charge your devices when Mr. Sun is a’hiding. Use the solar panels to directly charge your devices, or to charge the Heli-on itself. Stuck without sunlight? The Heli-on is still a good investment because it charges via USB too! Don’t ever run out of batteries on your phone because you played too much Temple Run ever again!
