In today's market, there's an abundance of compactly designed computer mice, often smaller and less user-friendly than their traditional counterparts. However, the Air.0 stands out as a full-sized Bluetooth mouse, inspired by the art of origami, foldable and flat for easy storage.
Conceived by product designer Horace Lam based in Hong Kong, the origami Air.0 is currently a standout product in a Kickstarter fundraising campaign.
Designed with a sleek and lightweight profile, the Air.0 weighs a mere 40g (1.4 oz) and, when folded flat, is exceptionally thin at just 4.5mm. An exception is the area housing its 10mm optical infrared sensor.
Additionally, the mouse is coated with environmentally friendly materials with water-resistant capabilities. Four plastic pads underneath assist in smooth movement on surfaces.
To transform the origami Air.0 from a flat form into a regular computer mouse, simply fold and connect its two sides through a magnetic connector. Each device is equipped with a docking point for easy folding into a complete computer mouse.
The Air.0 retains left and right control systems on both sides, along with a scroll wheel in the middle. In its standard form, Air.0 is a Bluetooth 5.2-enabled computer mouse featuring silent buttons, making it suitable for quiet environments like libraries, bedrooms, offices, classrooms, and any place requiring tranquility.
The origami Air.0 mouse offers numerous interesting advantages for users such as:
- Sleek, lightweight, and portable design: A breakthrough in compact design makes it convenient to carry in your pocket without the inconvenience associated with traditional computer mice.
- USB-C charging port: Air.0 uses a USB-C charging port with a 500mAh battery capacity, providing up to three months of usage after each full charge. With just 1 minute of charging, you get 3 hours of usage, allowing you to charge the mouse fully during breaks and be ready for a full day of work.
- Various colors for every user's style: The origami Air.0 computer mouse is currently available in 12 colors, including deep blue, black, yellow, purple, gray, red, green, blush pink, brown, white, pink, and finally, sky blue. A diverse range for customers to choose according to their preferred color palette.
- Comfortable for users: Traditional mice force users to twist their hands, wrists, and arms down to touch and grip the mouse while working for long hours on a computer.
Based on user research and needs, Horace Lam introduces the origami Air.0 computer mouse lineup, creating a more ergonomic wrist and hand posture (similar to holding a hand) that aligns better with our complex anatomy, reducing strain and playing a crucial role in providing comfort during work.
This model of Air.0 mouse is compatible with devices running Mac OS/iPadOS 13.4, Android 3.1, and Windows 10/8.1/8, and above. Currently, Air.0 is only a Kickstarter project, and if it hits the market, the expected retail price is $69 (over 1.7 million VND), featuring 9 faux leather versions and 3 fabric-like versions in a total of 12 different colors.
According to some industry experts, pricing the origami Air.0 computer mouse at $69 is deemed reasonable considering the features and conveniences it offers to users. If you appreciate owning a convenient, stylish mouse that delivers an excellent experience with every use, the origami Air.0 computer mouse is the perfect choice for you.
