Healing Theater Umine from Takara Tomy

The Umine Projector Healing Theater from Takara Tomy creates the feeling of being underwater by projecting wavering and evolving images onto your ceiling.
The technology is similar to that of the Aurora Palette, but goes beyond it by mixing subtly changing blue/green LED lights and includes an audio function.

As the diffuser plate rotates over the LEDs, a deep and strong image is projected onto the ceiling. We’ve seen it in person, and its misty projection makes it look like you’re in the sea, looking up into the light streaming in.

Internally, Umine has four optional audio modes, featuring ambient sounds and accompanying lights for the Beach, Dolphins, Deep Sea, and Jungle.

To play your own tunes via iPod (or whatever), simply connect your audio player to the input and lay back to relax. The visuals will change with the music as it’s piped through the Umine’s internal speaker.
