VOICE+
"Death is the number two fear that people have and public speaking is the first."
"It is the fear of being invisible. The fear that my words don't matter."
VOICE+ offers responsive voice visualization platform to empower introverts to overcome the fear of public speaking.
VOICE+ wall lamp is powered by interactive technologies and uses a microphone to detect users' volume when they are giving public speaks and will trigger a simple LED light visualization that helps them to understand the proper volume. Also, user can practice and rehearse their speakings towards the lamp and track the practice history through their phones.
The aim of the lamp is helping all of us to be a more confident public speaker with a clear voice.
