I have heard of some crap concept products before, but this one is seriously crappy. The product is called the AshPuppie and it comes from a firm called Paulee CleanTec. I am sure this is a gag of some sort, but on the chance its real and the fact that it's literally a product for dealing with turds I'm totally writing about it.

AshPuppie burns your dog’s turds to ash
Google Nexus Prime renderings appear accurate
It looks like those fabulous 3D illustrators are at it again, this time to bring us a good glimpse at what might well be what the Nexus Prime looks like. It’s the fine team of renderers at Ciccarese Design that draw us up a look at what might well be the next hero phone for Google’s mobile operating system, this time looking rather similar to two devices: the last Nexus phone, aka the Nexus S from Samsung, and the Samsung Galaxy S II line here in the USA. From what we understand via the ever-expanding rumor library surrounding this device, that combination might not be all that far off from the truth.
EliteBook Notebook PC Concepts hands-on with HP’s Eric Chen
It’s a rare occasion when you get to see the inner workings of the industrial design crew at a PC creation laboratory, but that’s just what we got to do this week at HP’s inaugural Making of Elite Tour for the world’s press core. It’s here that we got to speak with Eric Chen of HP Notebook Design and were allowed to gain some great insight into a bit of the grab-n-plug nature of iterations of devices. What we get to see here is a set of three EliteBooks, different versions on the way to the testing floor at one point or another, saved here for future projects should the need ever arise.
Origo 3D Printer concept for kids would be awesome if real
I really like the idea of a 3D printer. It would be awesome to be able to think up anything you want to make and actually make it right in your home. Today the average 3D printer is often large and very expensive putting them out of the reach of most of us. A company called Origo has an idea though and I hope they can pull it off.

Audi Urban Concept Car shown off [Video]
Audi has unveiled an interesting and very sleek new concept car called the Audi Urban Concept. This car is intended to show what the future of small and very fuel-efficient cars for city dwellers might look like. The car is dubbed a 1+1 by Audi and is made to be as lightweight as possible. The lighter a car is, the more performance it offers with less power and the longer the driving distance is since the car runs on batteries. The car was shown off at the International Motor Show in Frankfurt.

Infiniti Teases Sebastian Vettel-inspired FX50 in pre-Frankfurt motor show video
Well would you look at that - the wind in our hair isn't even all the way washed and Infiniti, whom we saw reveal several lovely concepts at Pebble Beach, has come correct with a teaser video for what appears very much to be the Sebastian Vettel-inspired FX50. Red Bull Racing has star driver Sebastian Vettel at the helm here, Infiniti working with him and the team to bring forth a masterpiece of F1-racing top gear inspired bit of concept vehicle for the general public. You're certainly welcome to draw your own conclusions on what this video could really be pointing towards, but we've got a guess that you're likely to agree with.

PumpTire keeps inflated all by itself
Both of my kids have bikes that they ride regularly. The problem is if either of them goes a day or so without riding the bikes the tires are flat. For some reason the bike pump is a very elusive item at my house so getting tires filled up is a pain for me. A new design concept is up to get funding on Kickstarter looking to bring new tires for bikes to market called the PumpTire. These tires will never need to be pumped according to the designers.

iPhone 5 concept video shows holographic keyboard and display
We've seen plenty of iPhone 5 concept renderings in the past, one of the most recent being the More @ Less design, but here we have a neat concept in video format. The video is created by a San Francisco-based 3D animation and digital content shop called Aatma Studio, which imagines the integration of pico projection for holographic keyboards and displays on future iPhones.

Infiniti Etherea at Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance
Infiniti has already shown off its Etherea concept before, with the compact having made its debut at the 2011 Geneva Motor Show, but it’s getting its first public North American outing at the Concours d’Elegance here at Pebble Beach. Still eye-catching despite the familiarity, beyond the illuminated grille it’s the sharply styled C-pillar that’s the Etherea’s main flourish, something Infiniti carried forward to the JX Concept unveiled yesterday.
iPhone 5 More @ Less Concept Phone cuts the Bulk
Though you may think your iPhone is already as small as its going to get, industrial designer Zeki Ozek has a different idea: cut MORE off of the non-display hardware off than the already ultra-minimalistic iPhone 4 already has, taking a page out of Android's next OS version Ice Cream Sandwich's book of button-less workings and adding on gestures. Changes in this hypothetical device include OS changes as well of course, including the ability to assign one app to each of your fingerprints - if there's one thing I want in life from a future phone, it's that.
