DESIGN NAME: Bio Harmonex
PRIMARY FUNCTION: Electromagnetic Generating Device
INSPIRATION: We live in the earth's magnetic field. Schumann resonances, are a set of spectrum peaks in the extremely low frequency (ELF) portion of the Earth's electromagnetic field. These peaks are believed to be caused by electromagnetic activity in the space between the Earth’s surface and the ionosphere, which acts as a closed waveguide, and a resonant cavity for electromagnetic waves in the ELF band. This device simulates these spaces and promotes the beneficial effect on people's lives.
UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION: New, organic design compared to the existing type of IT devices. Unique exterior design inspired by nature. In addition, it was important that it must not look like a smartphone, because although touch screen and menu navigation is excellent, but the main function is generating a bio-resonance magnetic field.
OPERATION / FLOW / INTERACTION: Use of the product is very ergonomic with its touchscreen. The selected magnetic therapy programs can be started easily, can be set into favorites and also can be set for automatic running. There is a my-bio applications int he ubit for optimizing the user's daily routine.
PROJECT DURATION AND LOCATION: Development of the project began in 2014 in Hungary, and now in 2017 the development is completed. It will now be published on various desing forums.

RESEARCH ABSTRACT: Each organ or other component of our metabolism is comprised of billions of individual cells. How is it that these billions of individual cells can co-ordinate their activity so perfectly so that an organ can perfom a specific function? The biochemical process of each individual cell is preceded by electromagnetic activity, which is shared between all cells involved in a certain metabolic process. It is a way that individual cells appear to communicate with each other. So, in addition to hormonal and neural control, there is bio-electromagnetic stimulus for co-ordination of the biochemical functions of cells.
This electromagnetic field that triggers, regulates, and coordinates thousands of times per second the chemical processes of body's cells may, as in any electromagnetic field, be influenced by external energy. Influencing this electromagnetic field externally may help ensure optimum functioning of the metabolism.
It was discovered that healthy cells that form part of a system, are influenced only by vibrations of a specific frequency, intensity, amplitude and pulse, and that such systems are sensitive to resonance. In physics, resonance means the amplification of a signal or vibration in response to an external stimulus, that has the same frequency as the natural vibration frequency of the system it is stimulating. This is the gist of bio-resonance therapy -. stimulating by external signals, the natural electromagnetic field generated by specific tissues in the body, thereby enhancing the metabolism’s natural function and healing power.
CHALLENGE: The design tried to catch the basic function of the product, "the soul". This is why it has a pulsing inside light with reference to the magnetic resonance and harmony, because these are not perceptible to humans. The challenge was to breakaway from traditional phones as well as IT gadgets and creating the oval form which refers to natural forms, like for example pebbles.
