That's where Nope comes in. Details of Nope can be checked from the following movie.


This is Nope. It is a web camera cover with a thickness of just 0.8 mm.


Tapes are sometimes used to cover the webcams of computers, but when you peel off the tape several times you can not use it, there are things that have fallen unnoticed, and the adhesive remains on the place you pasted Sometimes. In the case of Nope, there is no such worry and features are stylish in appearance.


It looks like this is actually using Nope on a computer.


It is hard to understand from afar, but as you approach, you can confirm that Nope covers the webcam.


Because it is as thin as 0.8 mm, it is possible to close even a laptop with Nope attached.

There is a small gap between Nope and the computer, so there is no danger of your computer getting hurt by rotating Nope. In addition, although the magnet has strength enough not to fall Nope itself, it does not affect the computer, so it can be used with confidence.

If you invest 5 dollars (about 540 yen), you can get a set of Nope · Nope Mini out of the one you like or one by one, and you can choose the color from silver · black. Also, it is possible to increase the number of Nope you can increase if you increase the investment, so when you ship outside the United States you pay extra shipping fee. Shipping is scheduled for December 2014.


The deadline is 3:03 on Wednesday, November 19th in Japan time.
