Industrial design student Gregory Siegal is sick and tired of people taking photos and leaving them languishing in random folders on their PC. His LifeMap concept takes the form of a super-skinny touchscreen PC that can use geographical data and tags to display different timelines and memory sets.
There have been several overly cruel alarm clocks pop up, the Sonic Boom alarm has been probably the worst, that is until now. This clock appears perfectly innocent, but it actually uses a bit of negative reinforcement to get your rear out of bed.
Every three minutes after it goes off, if you don’t shut it [...]
This cute little concept design is definitely not for those that have slanted floors. It’d end up rolling off the nightstand onto the floor the second it got to ringing. Then again that might help you rush out of bed to go find it, so I suppose it depends on your perspective.
Alright, the people that sit around and create these designs that make us gadget addicts heads go to mush are just cruel and unusual. This particular concept was featured in T3, it is an artist’s rendering of what was hinted at by Microsoft a while back ago.
Nokia has decided to try their hand at a green phone, it is a growing trend so perhaps it’s time for them to jump on the bandwagon as well. Although this is still a concept design, the fact that they are trying their hand at it even is a good sign.
This Lamp Chop Light reminds me of a pop up book, except it’s for you wall and it actually has a real function. Not that pop up books aren’t cool and all, but half the time the story to go with the pictures that propelled themselves at you, were practically nonexistent.
This cool concept light gives the perfect opportunity to screw with your stoner friends and maybe even the occasional drunken ones. The LED lamp is meant to look like it is tearing through the wall, but completely visible when it’s off. It is meant to blend in with your wall.
Not much information on this, yet, but according to early reports this is a dual-touchscreen notebook prototype from ASUS. Buried in among the Eees and projector-sporting laptops at Computex 2008, the device uses two MultiTouch-capable LCD panels, with the lower display used for a QWERTY keyboard and touchpad. The concept is similar, in fact, to OLPC’s XO-2.
Kids have always had a tendency to wander off, no matter how much of a careful parent you are they still like to push their limits. Some parents have had special devices that attaches the kid to them if they are in an overly populated area like the zoo. This little bracelet offers [...]
It’s tricky, as a tech company, predicting how people will react to your latest shiny concept. In OLPC’s case, I’ve a sneaking suspicion that many will be saying “concentrate on hitting that promised $100 price-point with your current laptop” rather than spending too much time cooing over a render that really looks too good to be [...]
