Embrace é um projecto de Lisa Thomas e Jonathan Fitch, estudantes do Savannah College of Art and Design.

Embrace é uma pulseira que nos permite manter uma ligação com aqueles que nos são mais queridos durante períodos de separação.
“Embrace has an alternating rhythmic form that enables it to nest within its matching reversed form. Each node is modular, with a semi-retro twist, like the “Kitchen Aid” aesthetic. We also wanted to keep it simple and sleek like Apple’s current line of products.”

Da mesma escola (Savannah College of Art and Design), um outro projecto dos alunos Daniel Nadeau e Chap Ambrose, Ambient Atmos, um “gadget” que faz lembrar na forma um relógio de bolso, que se liga a uma rede wireless para nos mostrar a cor do céu no preciso local em que nos encontramos.
“The Ambient Information Network (os mesmos da The Ambient Orb) allows the Atmôs to receive real time data regarding the current sky. This information is sent by a network of Motorola wireless towers to a pager chip inside the device. This chip decodes the information and displays 1 of 37 colors of its color palette. The color is displayed using a matrix of light-emitting diodes.”
