Little Printer

Design studio Berg has announced a new product, the Little Printer, which will be available for purchase in 2012. The Little Printer “lives in your home, bringing you news, puzzles and gossip from friends.”

Users configure the Little Printer from their mobile phones, and the product launches in partnership with Google, the Guardian, Nike, Arup and foursquare. The Little Printer will receive personalised information from these sites, and presumably other sources as it gets up and running. It is the first product that uses the ‘Berg Cloud’ technology, a new way of connecting and controlling wireless products in the home. The Little Printer wirelessly connects to a small box plugged into a broadband router, which is controlled by a mobile phone rather than a PC.

The film below shows the Little Printer in action:


More info on the Little Printer can be found on the Berg website, bergcloud.com/littleprinter/, where you can also join the mailing list to be the first to be informed on news about the product launch.
