USING MICO01 — 03
01

Fits comfortably
in one hand.

The oval profile and grips at each end make it comfortable to hold. Screen and controls share one body, just 100 mm long.

02

It comes apart.
To give you a voice.

The microphone modules detach from the central body during use. Every part has its place, including when it is time to put them back together.

03

It connects.
And goes with you.

The USB-C module is part of the object. It pulls out when needed, keeping the connection integrated into the system.

THE PROJECT STARTS HERE

A form
that brings it together.

The research starts with the gestures and accessories of a microphone system. The all-in-one concept brings them together in a pocket-sized object: a continuous form, interrupted only where its parts need to separate.

GOOD COMPANY, EVERYWHERE

The scene changes.
Your voice stays yours.
