The bubblehead web cam was created by a man named Eric Zhang who currently works for Nanjing OIOI Design Inc. Eric Zhang was asked to create a functional and unique web cam that would appeal to students and youths. His aim was to produce a web cam that was appealing to the eye more interesting than most and in my opinion he has successfully achieved this in his creation . This mini figured camera is 1.3 mega pixel working with 12 frames a second, has a built in microphone and a still capture button , nothing drastically different from an original web cam although this design is much more fun and creative in comparison to the everyday USB computer camera. It is made from a copper skeleton and coated in durable thermoplastic polyurethane that makes it bendable. The profile of the camera is in the form of a person and with its bendable arms it is able to clasp onto pencils, notes, monitors and screens and its head can be rotated a full 360 degrees. LED’s line the circumference of the camera, which syncs with the clients computer system’s clock to display the time in shiny lights, therefore has more functionality than just shooting a video. People prefer there gadgets to be moderately attractive these days giving the choice of an average web cam and a bubblehead webcam I’m sure the majority would choose the second option. So to answer the question “why is it that we want our belongings to do more than just function well ?” people base there first opinion on an object due to the way it has been created if the object is more appealing to the eye and shows the same functions as another less attractive they are more drawn to the more visually interesting model.
The Bubblehead webcam comes in two choice of colour, green or pink and is available to buy online for £24.95 (it’s about $43.00) from www.Gadgets.co.uk
