Alarm clocks are notorious for delivering a blaring buzzer to get a person up which can be quite jarring and also not applicable for hard of hearing or deaf individuals, which is where the Paramita Universal Alarm Clock comes in.
Conceptualized by Jooahn Yoon, the alarm clock functions silently and requires an incense cone to be positioned onto the surface. The clock face is equipped with a lighter that will ignite the incense when it's time to wake up and thus awaken the person using the power of scent.
The Paramita Universal Alarm Clock could help to start the day off on the right foot for the average person, while those with hearing impairments could enjoy a decidedly more accessible way to awaken in the morning.
What Makes This Trend Stand Out
- Scent-based Alarm Clocks
- Designing alarm clocks that use scent instead of sound to wake people up could be a potential disruptive innovation opportunity in the alarm clock industry.
- Inclusive Alarm Clocks
- Creating alarm clocks that are accessible for people with hearing impairments could be a potential disruptive innovation opportunity in the alarm clock industry.
- Multipurpose Clocks
- Developing multifunctional clocks that serve as both an alarm clock and an aromatherapy device could be a potential disruptive innovation opportunity in the clock industry.
Sectors Adopting This
- Alarm Clock Industry
- The alarm clock industry could consider incorporating scent-based alarm clocks and inclusive alarm clocks as disruptive innovation opportunities.
- Aromatherapy Industry
- The aromatherapy industry could consider partnering with the alarm clock industry to develop multipurpose alarm clock and aromatherapy devices as a disruptive innovation opportunity.
- Assistive Technology Industry
- The assistive technology industry could consider developing accessible alarm clocks as a potential disruptive innovation opportunity in the alarm clock industry.
