Rotating 360° Multi-outlet Socket
A Creative design by Cheng-Hsiu Du & Chyun-Chau Lin
"Rotating 360° is a multi-outlet socket system that allows you to add many sockets to the strip – ala Lego style. The main feature is that you can turn around the socket-outlets in any direction, so as to accommodate various plugs. You have to admit that this is a cool idea."
