Float ‘n’ charge.
Charging your phone is a pretty boring procedure, right?
Sure, wireless charging has made it slightly less tedious, as there is no need
to fiddle about with the end of a wire. But how about wireless AND contactless
charging, while also projecting you far into the future where things can levitate?
Welcome to OvRcharge.
On Kickstarter right now, with just a few days left and
having already smashed its initial funding goal, OvRcharge is a wireless phone
charger that also levitates your device, causing it spin like something on display
in the Mos Eisley Cantina. Developed by Canadian company AR Designs, the
OvRcharge uses a fairly simple wireless charging system in conjunction with a
special case that your phone needs to don to receive the juice. The base then
uses magnets to levitate the phone, holding it aloft a couple inches from the
wooden base, causing it to turn slowly.
Much simpler than it appears to be, this is a cool little
quirk of combining two established technologies. It will definitely act as a
great conversation piece on your desk in the office, so back it today while you
still can, here.
