We used to buy things made one at a time.
Mass production made products cheaper and more accessible, but largely identical.
What if the future takes us back to a world where everything is one-of-one?
Autumn Moon is a limited drop in collaboration with @kelin_online & @angelaloh09 built on that idea.

.@tinki_loh & i loooove lamps. we wanted to make a modular lamp system that that we could adapt to our spaces over time
so we're starting with a sculptural set of stones that you can stack, spin, and style!
preorders open now, link below
each lamp made to order in sf & new york, delivery starts august

🌕 got the perfect modular lamp for my bedroom, moonstone by @kelin_online @tinki_loh
when you take each stone apart, the light slowly dims down, as if its alive🪨
i wanted to prove to myself that i learned a fuckton from my first hardware product (poetry camera) by shipping a second product better and faster this time around.
last week, our lamp prototype felt kind of ugly and broken, but @tinki_loh and i decided to yolo a prototype batch for our friends. we trusted ourselves enough to know that we would figure it out.
so starting last friday we set up a shopify & website, sold out a private alpha batch, completely redesigned the enclosure, brought up new PCBs, fixed reliability & UX issues, assembled our first units, created simple packaging, and overshot our production goal.
wednesday night, we started delivering them to our first customers (including jeah, pictured below).

I've been waiting 3 years to show you this
We just launched our 3rd-gen humanoid, but we’re already on our 7th-gen hand
Our team has quietly worked for years to approach parity with a human hand
Excited to share a sneak peek of some of the best engineering I’ve ever seen
All sensors in. All actuators out: Helix 02 connects every onboard sensor - vision, touch, and proprioception - directly to every actuator through one unified visuomotor neural network.
This unlocks the full dexterity potential of five-fingered hands for intricate manipulation.
