About Ammos
Ammos is the creation of six driven and passionate Industrial Design Engineering students of TU Delft university. As part of the Integrated Product Design Master's curriculum and in collaboration with DeNoize, a YES!Delft startup, the idea of a glass speaker was conceived. During several months of development and quarantine, the glass speaker became Ammos, an alternative approach of the loudspeaker.
