Why Vimo S Is So Mini?

Although many wireless microphones on the market are extremely small, Comica did not stand still. Instead, after continuous exploration and research, Comica broke through the limit and designed Vimo S, which redefines what is called "miniature".

With only the size of a Bluetooth earbuds, how does Vimo S accommodate two transmitters and one receiver while having long battery life and power display? The engineers of Vimo S revealed the design thinking of this breakthrough.

Intention: To Reduce the Burden of Shooting

“Too many camera gears and the bulky microphone make the already cumbersome shooting even worse”, “Microphone is so big as a brick that drags the collar all the time”... These are typical problems in the use of wireless microphones. For this reason, during product R&D, engineers set the goal of "creating a consumer-grade microphone that breaks the routine problem". The target consumers are mobile phone users, we aim to optimize their recording experience.

Breakthrough: Groundbreaking Design

The major problem is the complicated construction of the microphone. Two transmitters and one receiver already occupy a large space. On this basis, integrating complex components such as batteries, power display screens, buttons, etc., make the size hard to reduce.

After hundreds of plan polishing in continuous design and overthrow, the engineers aimed the breakthrough point at the receiver. They found no vulnerable electronic components such as microphones, batteries, and antennas on the receiver. So they abandoned the traditional microphone storage design and pioneered attaching the receiver outside.

The external attached receiver can be perfectly integrated with the charging case, which not only maximizes the utilization of space but also ensures the overall beauty and design of the product. This solution has obtained national patent certification, and the storage method got a creative breakthrough.

Polish: Keep Improving

After choosing an external attached solution, new problems arise. How to ensure that the receiver is firmly attached to the charging case and does not fall off?

After a lot of thinking and discussion, a magnetic product accidentally inspired the engineers. Engineers noticed that many products now choose to use magnetic design for convenience. Place the two parts nearby then they will automatically stick together after sensing the magnetic force. It is very smooth to use without precise alignment, and the strong magnetic attraction is quite stable. After continuous testing, Vimo was designed with magnetic absorption. 

Besides, engineers also applied magnetic attraction to the cover of the charging case and the storage of the transmitters, making it more convenient for users to use.

Functions: Highly Integrated

Vimo S is also designed with a power display, gain adjustment knob, audio mode switching, and other functions. How to integrate various functions in such a limited space while ensuring an elegant appearance and convenient use? The best structure and layout were achieved because of continuous improvement and optimization by engineers.

The innovative R&D of Vimo S is the result of the unremitting pursuit and concerted efforts of the entire team of Comica. In the future, Comica will continue to take consumer demand as the basis, continue to innovate and develop, and bring better recording solutions to users.
