Wait, what happened to wireless gadget charging, period? I’m not sure, but design firm, Frog Design, is already working on a clothing concept that is capable of sustainable charging without the need for batteries or plugging into a wall outlet.

Sure, real music is great and all, but do you ever take the time to listen to the natural music of the world around you? Everything has its own sound, and when you really listen to it it’s its own kind of beautiful music. I guess.At least that’s the idea behind Otto, a little device [...]

Instead of a normal desktop computer, Asus released the Nova P20 box-styled computer, which is very similar to the Mac Mini.
Anyhow, the little beast sports an Intel 2160 processor running at 1.8GHz, plus 1GB of RAM memory to help out. Just by knowing these 2 details, it is certain that the performance is only good [...]

The city of Haifa, Israel is built largely on the slope of Mount Carmel, so its geography calls for an unconventional underground solution. And thus the Carmelit was born. The Carmelit is one of the smallest subways in the world, and travels a single tunnel that’s about 5,905 feet long. From its lowest point to [...]

It’s taken a while, but it looks like folks in Japan can now finally get their hands on Asus’s diminutive and eminently-hackable Eee PC, although not exactly the same models we have ’round these parts. Dubbed the Eee PC 4G-X, the Japan-centric laptop is apparently identical to the regular 4G model, with the notable exception [...]

Concept designs are often tantalizing glimpses into a better future. But while they are often desirable (you never see a concept gold and diamond encrusted cellphone, for example), they’re usually impossible to make.
Not so with this camera. The USB Digital Camera, by Sungwoo Park, is a cam on a thumbdrive. It lacks a viewfinder and [...]

While these Wall Cleats are by no means the perfect solution to organizing a large mess of cables, they do provide a very simple way to avoid the occasional cable loop sitting on your floor. Installing the Cleats is as easy as replacing the faceplate on your wall outlet, but I’d probably be worried about [...]

Eww, it’s back. Nokia’s 7900 Crystal Prism is now really, extra-super official with a scheduled Q1 2008 launch for €375 (before taxes and subsidies). Besides sporting a slight redesign from that earlier pic, we now know that the 7900 packs WCDMA 2100/850 in addition to those quad-GSM bands, 2-inch OLED, and 2 megapixel CMOS camera. [...]

Son Mocci designed this set of salt and pepper shakers. They look kind of like idea bubble clouds and kind of like bathroom doorknobs, but they’re special because their Neodymium magnet bottoms let them hover above a matching base. They will go well in any kitchen that contains eggpods, but we wish that the magnetic [...]

The design of the Globus Artifort work station helps enforce the view that the worker is insignificant by giving them all they need in a tiny space, and then folding said tiny space into an even more compact ball. That’s assuming that all your drone needs is a bit of running up and pushing you [...]

There’s nothing worse than being honked out of bed early in the morning by an obnoxious alarm clock. The Dawn Alarm solves that problem with an array of exceedingly bright LEDs on top that start out as soft as dawn’s early light and ramp up into nearly enough candlepower to light up an operating room.
That’s [...]

So, on one hand, grass is pretty lame. Yet, on the other, it’s a low stress form of vegetation that won’t demand too much from you and, when arrayed as artfully as it is with the Sensory Lamp, it can be oddly attractive. The idea behind the Sensory Lamp is that you’ll be happier in [...]

Most of the bionic eye systems we’ve seen involve clunky glasses-cam headgear, but the implantable camera now being developed at UCLA does it straight Terminator-style and keeps your face unemcumbered. The camera, which researcher Michelle Hauer and her team recently filed a patent for, is small enough to be implanted directly on the eye’s lens, [...]

We’ve fallen in love with the suspended fireplace … It is modern, it is technologically advanced and, most important, it is very inviting. A beautiful sculpture that creates a strong design focal point in any room, this wood burning fire is a great conversation starter. What could be better to gather around it with friends [...]
