Using the iPhone’s built in tilt sensor, this cute little app fills up your screen with a virtual brew, which then seems to pour into your mouth once you raise the phone to your lips. The only problem is that this brew can’t quite capture that beechwood aged flavor.
iBeer can be downloaded from iTunes for [...]

Filed under off topic | No Comments

This little device plugs into a USB slot and begins heating up. It’s a stirrer with a liquid heating element attached. Sounds like a genius idea…until you think about the fact that you’re basically giving anyone in the office a branding tool.

Posted by sickofgadgets.com
Filed under off topic | No Comments

You’d probably think the Proxima is a car if you saw it from the front, or a motorcycle — albeit an odd-looking one — from the rear. You’d be right, both times. A concept by Alvino Design, the Proxima is a two-seater that successfully blends two different vehicle styles. Chances are, if you love [...]

Reinventing the wheel has never looked so uh… awkward? I will wait to pass judgement on the comfort aspects of this concept and whether or not my abdomen is ready for the onslaught of vibrations that are sure to come. I also don’t see Pamela Anderson or any other well endowed ladies hopping on this [...]

Here’s a concept fish owners (or fish who are owned by children) wish was real: a robotic fish feeder. A unit like the Fifer would probably serve a pond better than a fish tank as it’s designed to deliver the good stuff to as many fish as possible. Sound like a simple job? It’s [...]

CityEl, the 200mph electric car zips along a monorail

Posted by sickofgadgets.com
Filed under off topic | No Comments

Braggadocio about electric car designs runs rampant, but the CityEl’s claim of 200mph beats all. This working prototype was built for a mere $2500, and spends most of its life as an ultralight 3-wheeled electric runabout. But if its inventors Jay Andress and Andy Webster can raise $10 million, they’re going to create a one-mile [...]

Omer Yosha has created a pretty cool instrument. The Air Piano is an electronic piano of sorts that lets you play notes without touching any keys. It uses infrared technology to detect movement and plays a music note based on where the movement came from. If you leave your hand hovering over a spot the [...]

BuzzBall - A Roller Coaster Ride Without The Rails

Posted by sickofgadgets.com
Filed under off topic | No Comments

I know a lot of people must really enjoy roller coasters, otherwise amusement parks wouldn’t be spending millions of dollars on the latest and greatest designs. But the faster/taller/twistier a coaster gets, the longer the line usually gets. So what if everyone could have their very own roller coaster and never have to wait in [...]
