Electric Objects is a startup that specializes in creating digital displays for art, exemplified by its flagship product, the EO1. This device functions as a high-resolution, picture frame-like computer that allows users to showcase artwork sourced from the internet. The EO1 consists of a 23-inch high-definition screen paired with a computer powered by a Raspberry Pi, all enclosed in a custom frame available in white or black. Users can manage the displayed art through a web application or a mobile app, enabling them to select and change images quickly and effortlessly. The system is designed for ease of use, requiring only a single cord for power, but does not allow for direct interaction with the screen, distinguishing it from traditional tablets or televisions. Founded by Jake Levine, Electric Objects emerged from a personal project aimed at finding a more aesthetic way to display art in a home setting.
