Concept AMPIEQ Sound Amplifier Design

The world will never get tired of seeing new speakers or amplifiers introduced. As the world gets older, technological progress is expected.

The latest concept design is the AMPIEQ Sound Amplifier, published by designers from Kiev, Ukraine. Max Mysechko and Artemiy Drobyazko of Qvarta Studio have worked on this  concept product design that makes an impression with its simple yet elegant look.

The black and gold color combination of the Concept AMPIEQ Sound Amplifier makes for a beautiful and clean aesthetic. The two shades used on the product are contrasting, creating a pleasing effect on the eye. The amplifier system doesn’t really appear like any other audio systems we know, although at first glance, they look like ordinary black boxes with a hint of gold.

What makes the AMPIEQ Sound Amplifier interesting is the control box. It reminds us of old audio systems with a punch of retro-modern style. The designers seem to know what they are doing, especially with the combined creativity we have seen in their old projects.

The designers aren’t strangers to us as we have seen their previous works already. Max Mysechko once showcased the Bamboo Food Steamer— a design he made with Artemiy Drobyazko of Qvarta. The two also worked on the UV Irradiator. The two also designed the Strixie Monitor for newborns and the Heatlie companion cup. The SeaVoice FRS-radio headset was showcased a few years ago and is followed by the Periscope Mask.

The specs are not mentioned, but on the control box, we see control knobs for Volume, Treble, Bass, and A1/A2/A3, plus an AUX-IN port. On the rear, we see several ports for connection. A portion of the control box is transparent, so you can see the components inside. There’s some sort of light that we’re assuming illuminates whenever the amplifier is turned on.

The concept product appears to be one powerful audio system. It should be to complement the elegant design of the AMPIEQ Sound Amplifier. It’s ideal for the home and can fit most interiors with its retro aesthetic style.

The AMPIEQ Sound Amplifier reminds us of the #001 TOKYO vacuum tube amplifier from Puddle Sound. The whole audio system comes with two speaker boxes and one control box. We believe Qvarta Studio will introduce more concept product designs, and we’re here to check them out for you. We value these designers from Ukraine, especially in this season.

This Portable UV-C Lamp can Sterilize an Entire Room with the Push of a Button

Posted on by

With the whole world in a public health emergency, there is a significant need for heavy-duty sanitation devices. As public spaces reopen, disinfecting surfaces thoroughly and often is very important. However, there’s only so much an employee can do. The UV Irradiator streamlines the process of sterilizing an entire room, relieving some work-stress for the managers, and keeping patrons safe.

UV-C radiation is an effective disinfectant against bacteria and viruses, often used in hospital rooms and on surgical tools. Recent studies also indicate that UV-C is effective against the SARS-Coronavirus. The UV Irradiator takes the existing technology and adapts it into a portable, automated sterilizer. It consists of six UV lamps which distribute UV-C rays across a 360-degree radius. Its slender structure takes up minimal space and allows for easy maneuvering between rooms and tight hallways. The two handles on the device allow users to move the UV Irradiator without physically touching the lamps themselves. It also has a retractable plug that stores the wire chord neatly in the base, saving users the trouble of wrapping a cable securely around the machine.

In addition to being highly portable, the UV Irradiator looks very user-friendly, with a straight-forward four-button set-up. The start-button has an automatic 30-second delay, giving users time to leave the room before being exposed to the radiation. The device also comes with all-around motion sensors, as an extra safety measure in case someone enters the room during the decontamination process. Because the UV Irradiator is so easy to use, it could significantly decrease the risk of viral spread in public places.

An electric bamboo food steamer to keep traditional cooking techniques alive and you healthy!

Posted on by

To maintain healthy habits during quarantine, I have taken to steaming my food, as it is one of the healthiest methods of cooking. But what is the advantage of using the Bamboo Food Steamer? First off, bamboo steamers have been a staple in Chinese cuisine for over 5,000 years. They consist of stackable layers with slatted bottoms, making it possible to cook multiple items simultaneously. The bamboo also absorbs excess steam, which keeps vegetables from becoming too soggy. As a bonus: the Bamboo Food Steamer promotes environmentally-friendly practices in addition to healthy eating because, unlike trees, bamboo stalks grow back after being cut and require minimal effort from their farmers.

The Bamboo Food Steamer takes these pros and adapts them into a modern cooking tool. Compared to traditional bamboo steamers, this product is cleaner, more portable, and easily accessible for consumers who are less familiar with Chinese culture and cooking techniques. The steamer seems very-user friendly, as it only has one control: a circular LED timer. Simply plug in the device, set your timer- no extra on/off switch needed. These small touches make the Bamboo Food Steamer the easiest purchase you could make in order to support healthy and environmentally-sustainable choices.

New Monitor for Newborns

Posted on by

strixie_01

If you’ve ever been given the fantastic opportunity to mind a newborn baby, then you’ll also be aware that it’s a handful trying to make sure they’re safe, they sleep well and that they are never alone for too long. It can be as demanding as it is rewarding, and both Max Mysechko and Artemiy Drobyazko understood this when trying to buy a gift for their colleagues’ recent newborn. Searching the web for hours, these guys found no luck of a playful baby monitor appropriate for the purchase, so in-turn decided to design one themselves – which is where the Strixie was born.

Equipped with a video streaming camera, microphone, speaker, built-in battery, Bluetooth and Wi-Fi connectivity, the Strixie has what it takes to shrink you down to size and put you right there beside your baby. Strixie has some nifty tricks; it can play music directly from your smartphone, remind you to check in on your child, alerts you to excessive noise in the room like crying, allow two-way audio conversations and even enables the user to receive live feeds of the baby too. With design similarities to Vivien Muller’s Ulo, the Strixie carries some of the goals and visions from the Ulo with the specific use of newborn connection and safety.

That being said, there are things about Strixie that I’m not sold on, such as the ballast used to keep the device upright. Adding weight into a device that will be close to a baby seems dangerous and can be easily avoided by a broad base that tapers upwards. Also, having the camera so low on the body of the device is bound to be covered by cloth if it’s near the baby or bound to have the view obscured if it is sitting on top of a shelf/desk. This concept has a nice idea behind it, however, I feel some areas require careful and strenuous thought.
