Lobster Vision gives you x-ray vision

Christina Crouch, Dec 26th 2007 Discuss [0]

Who hasn’t ever wished they had x-ray vision. Whether for nefarious reasons or just plain curiosity, I’m sure we’ve all yearned for it at one time or another. Physical Optics Corp., which is based in Torrance California, has come up with a product they call LEXID (Lobster-eye X-ray inspection Device) and it can see through wood, concrete and steel. It does so by reading the reflection, instead of refraction, of x-rays that are beamed at certain objects/walls. This is how lobsters see in murky waters, thus the name. I think this is amazing. It’ll be a great help for people in law enforcement or, especially, soldiers. I can’t help but think how many lives this could possibly save. For my own selfish, and possibly nefarious reasons, I’d love to get my hands one but it looks like it’ll only be for those government type people.

There’s nothing quite like getting your family on video during the holidays. Especially if you’re family is prone to drinking or blurting out secrets during meal time. Having a tiny hand held camcorder can come in real handy in getting the good shots unbeknownst to your relatives. Read The Full Story

The BOSS Comes To Prisons – Body Orifice Security Scanner

Christina Crouch, Dec 24th 2007 Discuss [1]

Sometimes I see a product and I think… that’s perfect! The Body Orifice Security Scanner, or BOSS, is something along those lines. Prisons in England and Wales are using the BOSS to scan inmates for “hidden objects”. This chair comes with three sensitive sensors capable of detecting hidden materials as small as a paperclip within the body. Truthfully, I think it’d be a lot more useful in another setting, airports. Just a quick sit in the chair and no more hassle of “random inspections”. I think it would be quicker as well as less invading. Boss Body Scanner [via Coolest Gadgets]

Nissan makes a minivan with a microwave

Christina Crouch, Dec 24th 2007 Discuss [0]

When it comes to cars I’m pretty happy as long as it runs. However, I’ve always been a bit partial to minivans over other vehicles because I have a big family. Nissan has given me yet another reason to add to my list of why minivans rule. Read The Full Story

$25 Million Dollar Watch from Chopard

Christina Crouch, Dec 24th 2007 Discuss [12]

I don’t wear watches. My cell phone works perfectly well as a clock. If I were going to buy a watch though, I doubt I’d spend more than $20 let only $25 million. Read The Full Story

Cervellum Bike Digital Rearview Mirror

Christina Crouch, Dec 24th 2007 Discuss [0]

There aren’t many things a bike needs. Handle bars and wheels of course, maybe some beads or cards for the spokes if you want to bring back your childhood, possibly even a water bottle holder for those long rids. I camera/rearview mirror to show you what’s behind you, though, I don’t think is necessary. Read The Full Story

YourPND GPS Voice Over

Christina Crouch, Dec 21st 2007 Discuss [0]

I don’t have a GPS system myself but I know they’re popular and I know there are many different products available. I’m not sure it’d bother me so much to have a mechanical voice give me orders, especially if I bought it, but I can understand why some people might hate the voices on their GPS systems.
