Infiniti has revealed its latest luxury crossover, the Infiniti JX Concept, a preview of what we can expect from the production model likely to hit showrooms in 2012. Capable of cosseting up to seven people across three rows of leather-clad seating, the JX Concept pulls together distinctive design touches like its crescent-cut D-pillar and snout-like grille with luxury features such as a 14-speaker Bose Studio Surround audio system.
If you have ever been to a big car show where the major manufactures are rolling out their new models and concept cars you know how cool some of the concepts can be. Audi has a very strange concept car that will be showing up at the Frankfurt Motor Show called the urban concept. This little green car is the smallest car that audio has shown off.

When the market competition gets tough, the innovative get strange. That's exactly what's happened here with industrial designer Roni Mergolin, a fellow who is today presenting a design for a tablet-like device which sits inside a sleeve made of felt that doubles as a keyboard for said tablet when it's up and out. It's time for some super-soft yet super-protective action as once your tablet is out in the open, it's hooked up instantly to the case it's carried in for easy-to-use and interact with mobile computing action.

Before we begin speaking about this cool new masterpiece, I must warn you that it is still a concept. This means it's not in production yet, and if there is a unit out there working, it's still just a prototype. That said, we sure as heck wish this particular model was out for purchase, as immediately on the lens it certainly would go. This is the HoodCap Flower, a DSLR camera cap that twists to unfold and provide the camera then with a hood for sunshine blockage.

It's been a while since we saw anyone add any sort of color other than silver, black, and white, if you consider those colors, to an iPhone concept. Certainly there's nothing holding these designers back from doing such mockups, but given the designs of the iPhone in reality thus far, it just doesn't really add up. What we're seeing here today is a total departure from everything we know about the iPhone specifically, latching on instead to the lineage of the iPod, with it bringing on four fabulous new color chassis and a cool silver as well.

It appears that in addition do their Motion-Sensitive keyboard patent, Apple has sent out a patent application for a "Flat Keyless Keyboard for Desktops & More." This application was signed for late last week and may be entirely flat or may include at least one input surface which may be constructed of glass, metal, plastic, or any other solid material Apple might end up wanting to use. In the case of glass, the keys could be painted on the surface or shown beneath the surface of the glass on a display, not unlike on-screen keyboards working on smartphones and tablets today.

If Bumblebee was ever in a pinch and needed to turn into a bicycle to hide from the Decipticons, the INgSOC is the bike he would turn into. This thing looks like it might cut your rear end off if you sit on it. The bike uses no chain and has three modes of operation. The bike has battery-power mode, battery assist mode, and battery charge mode.

I have seen a bunch of concepts for chargers and plugs over the years. Generally, the plugs are designs to save power and be more green. This new concept is a bit different and is designed to take up less space than your average plug with a head design that folds flat. The cord hinges at the prongs and the cool part is that it is the power switch too.

Welcome to this week's edition of the SlashGear Week in Review, let's get to it! The Vol Speaker concept turned up this week with a design that makes it look like a big volume knob. The concept has a rechargeable battery inside for portable listening. We learned that Android 3.2 fixes the screen incompatibility for apps that were previously handset only. The OS will get the ability to change from stretch to fill and zoom to fill the screen.

If you have ever watched the show Lie to Me, you know that their main character is a human lie detector that reads facial cues to tell if the person is lying or not. An electrical engineer at MIT has developed a new pair of reading glasses that uses a LED inside the frames to alert the wearer what the person they are talking is thinking based on facial expression.

I love design concepts that are cool. We see concept speakers every now and again and of all of the concepts I have seen in the speaker category the Vol Speaker is the coolest. I love the idea of a speaker that looks like a giant volume knob. It looks like the designer ripped the knob off my home theater receiver, sprinkled it with Miracle Grow, and crammed speaker parts inside. The designer of the concept is Hironao Tsuboi.

I will admit that cables are ugly; they are even uglier when I install something because I just don’t care what the cables running on and behind my desk look like. If you are the sort that gets a panic attack each time you see a cable showing you might want the Florafil to hide them. These are covers that you can put over just about any cable.
