Customizable Router Shells

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Google's OnHub Router Shells Look Pretty and Keep Your Internet Stable

— December 10, 2015 — Art & Design
Google is offering beautiful customizable shells designed to be fitted onto its OnHub routers.

Most of us keep our routers hidden behind a bookshelf or desk in order to keep them out of sight, but what this does is weaken the quality of our WiFi signals. But these beautifully colorful shells ensure that your router will now add to your house's beauty rather than distract from it.

The OnHub router shells are a simple but revolutionary introduction that prove that even the most boring and dreary of electronic products -- the Internet router -- can be converted into an object of art and something to display in your home rather than hide away from sight. The shells are also functional in that they encourage you to put your router in the middle of your home, making for stronger Internet signals.


Trend Themes
1. Customizable Router Shells - Personalization of otherwise mundane electronic products can increase their aesthetic appeal while also improving functionality.
2. Home Decor Technology - Technological devices that can be displayed in homes as decorative items add value to the overall interior design of spaces.
3. Enhanced Wireless Signals - Innovative designs, such as router shells, that guide the placement of wireless products in the home can result in stronger and more stable internet connections.
Industry Implications
1. Technology Manufacturing - Manufacturers of electronic devices can capitalize on the trend of aesthetically appealing technology by offering customizable designs that cater to individual tastes and preferences.
2. Interior Design - The integration of technology into home decor opens up opportunities for interior designers to offer services that incorporate and display technological products within homes and offices.
3. Wireless Communications - The demand for stronger and more reliable internet signals creates opportunities for wireless communication companies to develop and offer products that improve connectivity in homes and workplaces.
