Little jellyfish
Floating humidifier
Little jellyfish is a floating humidifier. You can use it in two ways: one is to put it on the table to humidify the air; another is to take the upside part, the jellyfish, to moisture your face.

01 Context
I got this idea when I went to the aquarium. There were various kinds of jellyfish, all quite lovely and elegant. They floated in the water waving their tentacles. I was attracted by their movement. Also，its the high water content body makes their skin shiny and smoothy. When I stroked my dry skin, I even a little jealous of them.
Then this idea came up — designing a floating jellyfish humidifier.
02 Design features
1. How to use it？
2. State one:
floating on your desk
3. State two:
moisture your face
03 design process
1. Sketching & Modeling
02 Prototyping
1. Electronic & Mechanical
Use the Magnetic levitation board to floating the "jellyfish"
2. Testing: How much weight can it hold?
Test how much weight it can hold
3. Modeling
Base on the weight test in part 2, design and make the floating J=jellyfish part- includes a magnet, water box, ultrasonic humidifiers. Ultrasonic humidifiers use a nebulizer, which is a small vibrating diaphragm, to create a cool mist.
4. Prototyping
Combine all components and test the function.
