Japan Display Inc.
Japan Display Inc. (JDI) has developed the "Kanade series", providing a new experience, as a 5-sense device, with hearing, smelling and seeing, to realize JDI's vision.
In recent years, the 5-senses marketing has become the new method focused. The "Kanade series" is an interior home appliance which allows the control of the mood by switching image contents, aroma and sound, all at the same time.
This appliance provides a personalized experience or daily comfort by producing image contents, aroma and sound to fit your mood. For example, you are able to readily enjoy a sense of remembering important moments of your hobbies, such as relaxing in nature, trips or outdoor experiences.
We realized a simple design for this through the collaboration with Ginger Design Studio※, which creates "spice" to make the world a more fun place with the exemplary sense. It is small, and can be placed horizontally, being able to be used in the living room, house entry etc., as it doesn’t take up much space.
The "Kanade series" is scheduled for mass production from December 2019.
