Inspirados por el tamaño y la forma de una taza de café, los fabricantes de Cuppa se propusieron la misión de crear la lámpara más portátil y funcional que el mundo haya visto jamás. Cuppa es una lámpara táctil LED inalámbrica con tecnología de control táctil de cuerpo completo y muchas otras características impresionantes. Más que una lámpara elegante, Cuppa resuelve los problemas comunes con las lámparas LED. Con Cuppa, ya no tienes que preocuparte por cables largos que ensucian tu escritorio o cables cortos que limitan la portabilidad o cómo puedes usar tu lámpara en ausencia de un enchufe.
Control táctil de cuerpo completo
Cuppa cuenta con un control táctil de cuerpo completo que le permite encender o apagar la lámpara desde cualquier posición de la base. Atrás quedaron los días de buscar a tientas un pequeño interruptor en el cable de la lámpara. ¡Simplemente toque en cualquier lugar de la base de su lámpara y habrá luz! Es importante destacar que la tecnología sin botones no sacrifica ninguna función. Aún puede atenuar la luz de Cuppa como lo haría con una lámpara normal. Para activar la atenuación continua, toque y mantenga presionado en cualquier lugar de la base de la lámpara.
Modo memoria
El modo de memoria de Cuppa le permite volver a encender la lámpara cada vez, en el nivel anterior. Junto con la función de atenuación continua, el modo de memoria facilita la personalización de su tipo de iluminación favorito. Y si necesita cambiarlo, no se necesita más que un toque.
Carga ultrarrápida
Cuppa cuenta con una tecnología de carga ultrarrápida tipo C que es similar a la tecnología de los teléfonos inteligentes más avanzados. Con solo 10 minutos de carga, puede usar Cuppa hasta por 2 horas. Increíble, ¿no es así? Pero lo que es aún mejor es que la lámpara puede durar 12 horas con carga completa y solo se necesitan 2,5 horas para alcanzar la carga completa. Otra ventaja de la tecnología de carga tipo C es que, en el improbable caso de un apagón, puede cargar fácilmente Cuppa con un banco de energía o una central eléctrica.
Ligero y portátil
Normalmente, asociaría las lámparas livianas con material plástico de mala calidad y una propensión a caerse con el menor toque. Sin embargo, este no es el caso de Cuppa. Con un peso decente de 1,98 libras, la lámpara está hecha de materiales ecológicos y tiene una base adhesiva que la hace extremadamente estable. Incluso si coloca Cuppa sobre una mesa inclinada, los fabricantes aseguran que hay cero posibilidades de que se caiga.
Duradero y duradero
A pesar de que Cuppa está hecha de tela reciclada, casi no hay lámpara que pueda presumir de una durabilidad comparable. La lámpara es resistente al agua, ignífuga y está equipada con una base adhesiva. Esto lo hace capaz de resistir muchos escenarios que destruirían las lámparas normales. El uso de Cuppa también reduciría su huella ecológica porque ahorra un 80% de energía en comparación con las bombillas estándar.
Información de precios
La lámpara táctil LED inalámbrica Cuppa se encuentra actualmente en la etapa de crowdfunding. La lámpara está disponible a un precio anticipado de $ 99. Puede consultar la página de la campaña de Kickstarter para ver otras promesas y recompensas disponibles.
Inspired by the size and shape of a coffee cup, the manufacturers of Cuppa set out on a mission to create the most portable and functional lamp the world has ever seen. Cuppa is a cordless LED touch lamp with full-body touch control technology and many other awe-inspiring features. More than being a fancy lamp, Cuppa solves the common problems with LED lamps. With Cuppa, you no longer have to worry about long cords that make your desk messy or short cords that limit the portability or how you can use your lamp in the absence of a socket.
Full-body touch control
Cuppa features full-body touch control that allows you to switch your lamp ON or OFF from any position on the base. Gone are the days of fumbling around for a tiny switch on the lamp’s cord. Simply touch anywhere on the base of your lamp and there is light! Importantly, the buttonless technology doesn’t sacrifice any functions. You can still dim Cuppa’s light as you would for a regular lamp. To trigger the stepless dimming, touch and hold anywhere on the base of the lamp.
Memory mode
Cuppa’s memory mode allows you to turn your lamp back on each time, at the previous level. Alongside the stepless dimming feature, the memory mode makes it easy to customize your favorite type of illumination. And if you need to change it, it doesn’t take more than a touch.
Ultra-fast charging
Cuppa features a type-C ultra-fast charging technology that’s similar to the technology in the most advanced smartphones. With just 10 minutes of charging, you can use Cuppa for up to 2 hours. Incredible, isn’t it? But what’s even better is that the lamp can last for 12 hours at full charge, and it takes only 2.5 hours to attain full charge. Another advantage of the type-C charging technology is that in the unlikely event of a blackout, you can easily charge Cuppa with a power bank or power station.
Lightweight and portable
Normally, you would associate lightweight lamps with poor quality plastic material and a propensity to fall over at the slightest touch. However, this is not the case with Cuppa. Weighing a decent 1.98Ibs, the lamp is made from eco-friendly materials and there’s a sticky base pad that makes it extremely steady. Even if you place Cuppa on a tipping tabletop, the manufacturers assure there’s a zero chance of it falling off.
Long-lasting and durable
Even though Cuppa is made from recycled fabric, there’s hardly any lamp that can boast of comparable durability. The lamp is water-resistant, flame-retardant, and equipped with a sticky base. This makes it capable of withstanding many scenarios that would destroy regular lamps. Using Cuppa would also reduce your ecological footprint because it saves 80% energy when compared with standard bulbs.
Pricing info
Cuppa cordless LED touch lamp is currently at the crowdfunding stage. The lamp is available at an early-bird price of $99. You can check out the Kickstarter campaign page to see other available pledges and rewards.
Startup
A startup or start-up is a company or project undertaken by an entrepreneur to seek, develop, and validate a scalable business model. While entrepreneurship refers to all new businesses, including self-employment and businesses that never intend to become registered, startups refer to new businesses that intend to grow large beyond the solo founder. At the beginning, startups face high uncertainty and have high rates of failure, but a minority of them do go on to be successful and influential. Some startups become unicorns; that is privately held startup companies valued at over US$1 billion.
Actions
Startups typically begin by a founder (solo-founder) or co-founders who have a way to solve a problem. The founder of a startup will begin market validation by problem interview, solution interview, and building a minimum viable product (MVP), i.e. a prototype, to develop and validate their business models. The startup process can take a long period of time (by some estimates, three years or longer), and hence sustaining effort is required. Over the long term, sustaining effort is especially challenging because of the high failure rates and uncertain outcomes. Having a business plan in place outlines what to do and how to plan and achieve an idea in the future. Typically, these plans outline the first 3 to 5 years of your business strategy.
Design principles
Models behind startups presenting as ventures are usually associated with design science. Design science uses design principles considered to be a coherent set of normative ideas and propositions to design and construct the company's backbone. For example, one of the initial design principles is "affordable loss".
