undercover.jpgUndercover, by Dana Gordon, is a blanket which contains a system of 24 wireless speakers and provides a special physical sound experience. It allows you to enjoy the vibrations of the speakers on your body and provides a private mobile soundscape. The blanket has an embedded array of small speakers that can receive a wireless audio signal via a Bluetooth connection. This audio signal can be beamed from any kind of audio device, such as mp3 player, television, computer, radio, etc. The volume controllers were designed in a way, which suits the blanket’s natural cuddling behaviour. The upper corners (A.K.A ‘the blanket’s ears’) control the volume - (pull the right one for higher volume and the left one for lower). [via]
