The invisible NFC (Near-Field Communication) chip at the tip of the mushroom sculpture, turns it into a “smart” sculpture, allowing you to scan it with your smartphone and run or write automations. This step is voluntary, yet with a bit of research, you’d be able to use the sculpture to, for example:

  • Share your wifi password with your guests 

  • Open any link (website, song, music playlist, etc)

  • Unlock smart lock

  • Turn on/off a smart lightbulb (or other appliances)

  • Save a password

  • Etc, etc, etc

All modern smartphones are capable of writing and reading such chips, without needing a 3rd party app. The number of automations are literally endless.

Here’s a tutorial for you to start with:
