20100917201

What if your glass windows can work as speakers? That sounds really amazing, right? But before that, you should firstly learn something about the “Glass Speaker”.

Therefore, the speakers can interact with the users, allowing them to by shaking one of the speakers, for example. But before that, you firstly need to squeeze the speaker to activate the gesture controls.
