The conceptual 'Vibe' charging tray has been designed by Joonho Shin as a desktop accessory that will enable users to communicate with those around them in an unspoken manner.
The unit features a gradient illumination functionality that can be changed according to the feeling of the user to let those around them know if they are happy, sad, angry and more. The system can also act as a way to communicate with coworkers regarding breaks to let them know when they want to go for coffee, have a chat and much more.
The conceptual 'Vibe' charging tray also acts as a stylish solution for workstations to keep smartphones power up and other small essentials organized instead of cluttering up the desktop.
