You, a wireless desktop PC system, brings you the promise of a new lifestyle.
You is a wireless desktop PC system, with a wall-mounted host hidden behind a mirror. It provides wireless communication with the desktop display, input and output system. Information can be displayed through the mirror, such as the current temperature and the calendar. In addition to the 2.4G wireless technology that the desktop system uses for information exchange with the host, the large soft-touch pad on the desktop supplies power to the speaker, keyboard and mouse without the need for any cables. The user does not need to change batteries, either. The user can conveniently control the screen’s angle. Furthermore, its base is positioned in a corner of the desk, allowing for more space when it is not being used.
The background light, with adjustable colour and brightness, allows the user to select an appropriate lighting condition for their mood or for the contents they are displaying. The brightness can be automatically regulated according to the indoor ambient light for a healthy level of brightness and contrast and to reduce tiredness and eye strain.
WIFI wireless technology, wireless power supply technology, nanometer anti-pollution rubber materials, colour LED (Light Emitting Diode) lights and dual-bulb lamp technology can now all be realised and used for mass production. Through its power saving and anti-pollution materials, its green colour scheme and plant-like shapes, the design pursues the theme of “natural, fresh and easy”. After all, ‘high-tech’ is not meant to make life more complicated, but rather, more natural.
