Micasa Lab, a leading Swiss retailer of furniture, has launched a charger that supports battery chargers and rear-seat speaker systems for iPads and iPhone smartphones.
IRock is a classic design, handmade from oak with five layers of paint. It has a generator on the back of a chair that is powered by the kinetic energy generated by the chattering of the chair. The charger is used to charge speakers or iPhone, iPad.
One-hour standby can charge 3-35% of battery capacity for iPad. iRock also has a rack mount on the armrest for hands-free use.
Inventors are improving the plug-in to, in addition to Android-powered devices, plugs can fit into a variety of other mobile devices. Micasa Lab estimates that an IRock seat will cost around $ 1,300 at the end of 2013, when it will be available.
