Mars 1

Earlier this week, Crazybaby, a Hong Kong-based audio company focused on the intersection of emotion, sound and devices, announced the launch of its crowdfunding campaign on Indiegogo for its levitation speaker system with a subway, Mars. Set to raise $100,000 the project immediately surpassed the initial goal and has so far reached $135,403 thanks to 814 backers.

Mars 3Designed as a floating spaceship speaker, Mars will take off when fully charged and self-land when power is low, and is a wireless and portable speaker with hi-fi sound. The UFO-shaped speaker system incorporates Gravitron technology by Levitation Arts, aptX codec by CSR and Bluetooth 4.0 by SIG.

Additional Waterproof Mars features include:

  • 360 Degree Sound Projection assures that everyone gets the same sound anywhere in the room.
  • Ultrathin and lightweight, the portable design weighs 1.5 pounds and measures 120 mm in diameter and is a thin 33 mm in height.
  • Airline quality aluminum, the Craft is durable as well as waterproof to IPX7 standard, which allows for immersion in water for up to 30 minutes at a depth of three feet.
  • The Mars Craft charges automatically by just placing the Craft on the Base. When power is low, the Craft lands and charges to full capacity then levitates to signal a full charge.
  • Innovative design: with a floating spaceship design, the Mars system is a beautifully crafted piece of art and an instant conversation piece for the tech-savvy home.

Linda ZhaoCo-founder of Crazybaby, Linda Zhao stated,”While many audio products on the market feature either good sound quality, cool design or an affordable price, no product delivers all three – until now. We created Mars to offer an innovative, affordable, and visually captivating speaker with an unparalleled listening experience.”

Karen Sherlock, CEO and Co-Founder of Levitation Arts shared,”Gravitron is our patented, state-of-the-art levitation technology. We are excited that Crazybaby is using it to enhance the consumer experience of their great speaker and melding it with a cool elegant design.”

Mars will sell for $249. The first 500 supporters of the crowdfunding campaign that launches today can pre-order Mars for only $149. Devices will ship in April 2015.
