    When not in use, these wireless earbuds are stored in a capsule, where they are also charged. Making them so small, only slightly larger than an earplug, was a technical challenge. The circuit board has been designed as the brand logo, rather than being hidden inside a casing. The product was crowdfunded, with prospective customers contributing funds before it was developed.
