Rocking Chair Charger

Have you ever thought about how much energy you could generate, and that goes to waste, as you enjoy the gentle back-and-forth of a rocking chair?

That question preoccupied the creators at Micasa Lab, and they found a way to put the rocking of this grandmotherly chair to work for technology: while you relax, your iPhone or iPad charges thanks to a built-in system that converts kinetic energy into electrical energy.

And for a complete hi-end result, the clever minds at Micasa Lab also provided for built-in speakers.

For the time being, this… invention works only with Apple products, though an Android version is in the pipeline.
