Glass speakers

When I first saw these I thought they were pretty cool. Then I found a picture of them in context and went, "omg. They're massive!" I had originally thought they were small enough to plunk down on top of your desk on either side of your monitor. Not so much...

Audio is created at the base of each speaker, and it's distributed up (and around) the pane with the lows coming from the bottom, the mids from the middle and the highs from the top. Unlike regular speakers, these speakers can project sound from both sides of the panes of glass giving you 360˚ of sound projection. Pretty cool piece of tech from Greensound Technology.
