Product Innovation: ThumbTack Mic
General Design, Product Innovation, Upcoming Inventions
These ThumbTacks by StitchEasy are an ergonomic delight for iPod Touch owners looking to upgrade their device. The ergonomics of the common thumbtack have been applied to this plug-in accessory that adds the microphone feature. Using the shape of the thumbtack is like using the handle of a gallon milk jug, the cap of a 20-ounce beverage, or the ridges on the side of a quarter. By making the form familiar, users are not intimidated by unfamiliar shapes. Priced at about $13, they come in a variety of colors, just like office thumbtacks.
