Caliper Radio

This is a caliper style AM/FM radio. It was created by Mikael Silvanto. I like this design a lot. It seems simple and it merely a concept. I am honestly astounded that something like this hasn't been thought of or created already. This works almost like the dial to find the right frequency on a radio station on analog stereos, as well as a caliper for those who have used one before, for those who haven't a vernier caliper is a device used to measure the distance between two symmetrical sides. It is generally used for more precise measuring. Also it is like a vernier scale, the scales used at doctors offices and the like. This unit has a speaker with a dial that you can change frequencies between AM and FM stations. All you have to do is move the speaker unit up and down the scale to find the radio station you would like to listen to. The design is genius and compact. I suppose room for an antenna would benefit the design because in the house sometimes signal is at a loss for radio. That would be a future improvement I would see on this before it went to production.
