This Logitech Mouse gives your gaming setup an edgy, modern day aesthetic!

Posted on by

Today the demands of pro gamers are as dynamic as the games they play! Inspired by this, German industrial designer Robbie Lillquist decided to create a gaming mouse that would fall between Logitech’s MX mice and gaming mice, while focusing on complete professional gaming experience without lacking in aesthetic appeal.

Called Logitech Salvo, the mouse comes with a unique mode switch, allowing you to switch between sensitivity and program presets without even opening any application! Lillquist’s mouse comes in various colors of anodized aluminum and with 6 buttons, each contributing to a different function.  The two side paddles perform standard Mouse- 4 and Mouse- 5 functions, whereas tilt action can be assigned as Mouse- 6 or Mouse- 7 functions. The detachable bottom ring is designed to be more durable than Teflon pads and opens up a slot to add stainless steel weights as per the user’s preference. Offered in high – durometer elastomer and glass-filled nylon variations, it allows for different levels of surface friction. Like the bottom ring, the battery is removable as well, allowing it to be recharged in a USB Bluetooth receiver station, while it is swapped with a spare one.

Uniquely ergonomically designed, aesthetically satisfying, technically functional and with a futuristic appeal, Lillquist’s Logitech Salvo is the wireless gaming mouse every gamer needs to get their hands on!

Earphones for when you don’t want to be disturbed

Posted on by

Earphones are a great tool to use when we want to close ourselves off to the outside world and for those time when we are just feeling a little less talkative. However, some people just don’t get this hint as they persistently try to be heard over your music. This issue led to the development of Gem; the wireless earphones that communicate your desire to not be disturbed.

Gem’s method of showing this derives from the technology used within electrochromic smart windows; its outer-shell changes from being translucent to opaque as a voltage passes through it. This change in state is a beautiful synonym to privacy which only elevates the product’s function in a subtle and intriguing manner.

This technology aside, Gem carries a beautifully sleek form that features immense levels of detail; simplistic branding has been laser etched into the Aluminium core, whilst the capacitive control strip elevates its functionality and the user experience!

If you aren’t feeling talkative, you can also manually set the headphones to appear opaque.

Earlier charging case iterations aimed open by sliding forwards, but resulted in a relatively large case to account for the depth of the earbuds. The final concept features a spring-loaded core that rises vertically.
