| Gently massage the supple Amoeba to dim and adjust the light level in any room. Amoeba replaces the hard flick of a switch, with the sensuality of a massage. Sensors at the base of Amoeba detect the touch of a hand. Lightly poke, and Amoeba turns on a small amount of light. Stroke, and Amoeba turns on enough light for reading. Two-hand massage, and watch out. Amoeba can turn on an entire room! No need to get up from your easy chair to dim the ceiling light, Amoeba lets you dim the lights, remotely. Fun for bedrooms, playrooms, salons and parlours, Amoaba can add light and (one-cell) life to any home. | ||
