Tennis Ball-Shaped Speakers

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

hearO Develops a New Unique Audio Speaker Resembling a Tennis Ball

— December 12, 2022 — Tech
hearO is a speaker brand that comes up with progressive ways of turning ordinary objects into something that can exude HiFi sounds. This time, it highlights a tennis ball, drawn from Wimbledon 2022's center court -- it still has the same logos from the sponsors of the event Slazenger as well as branding of the tournament itself.

The device is then designed with a 3W speaker embedded into the item with a frequency of 100Hz to 20kHz. It also features a 500mAh battery that is charged with a cradle using both USB A and USB C ports. The device is carbon neutral and sustainable in nature with its upcycled construction. However, it also bows to plant a tree with every purchase with the help of the European Nature Trust.
