# 2015 ONIXX |
|
ONIXX is an ergonomic textile that generates energy through the user’s natural body movement, using the lightweight and versatile properties of dielectric elastomers. It is a personal and effortless green energy solution. This first version of ONIXX targets nature enthusiasts, motivated by community-oriented and sustainable lifestyle habits. However, the project’s future 2030 vision involves a greater sharing platform in which wearers of all kinds contribute to a new source of democratised and crowd sourced human generated energy.
