Face Bank

face_bank_1.jpg

Dropping coins into the piggy bank can be quite uninspiring. So a different kind of piggy banks are emerging, the face kind where you literally feed it with coins.

Not only do you save but you also entertain yourself. It’s like having a pet that feeds on money. The eyes acts as sensors to which it will detect your presence before gulping up the money you leave on its mouth. Neat eh?

Portable Solar Charger for Cellphones

You guys, I need to get myself one of these. It’s better than spending $15 million on an ugly house in the woods - I’ll buy $15million worth of these and pass about for people to use. That’ll make a better statement, no?

The Sony Handycam HDR-TG1

handycam-1.png

A perfect camera for the memorable moments in life. This Sony’s camcorder pretty much the no.1 choice if I am looking for a camcorder camera that shoots in HD.

The shell is made out of titanium as well, so that means the camera is light but not cheap-plastic light. A compilation of its specs:
* Records to Memory Stick PRO Duo media
* Sony’s ClearVid CMOS Sensor (with Exmor derived technology)
* BIONZ image processor
* 4.0 MP still images
* Sony Face Detection technology

The camera is going to be released on May 30, 2008. You can pre-order yours from Amazon today.

A video about robots

Mute the video as I find the music to be corny. But the robots presented here are pretty cool. We’ve definitely come a long way in respects to AI and it won’t be long before we have a robotic nanny.

Hey, they have a robotic donkey already, who balances really well even though you gave it a kick in the ass. :P

Samsung S2 MP3 Player

Look at that shiny object? It looks unassuming, almost like a decorative pebble you would plop into your aquarium or plant pot. But wait, it’s actually Samsung’s new MP3 Player, Samsung S2.

It has 1gig of memory and a 35mm headphone jack. All for only USD39 a pop.

SOLo: A green table

solotable1.jpg

SOLo is an intelligent lounge table that is designed to soak up solar power to charge your various electronic gadgets. Green technology is getting sexier as time goes by because scientist now knows that consumers are suckers for all things pretty. If they want to save the world, they are going to have to work around style before cause.

The Intelligent Form SOLo table can, after fully charge, be used to recharge your cellphones 6,800 times and your laptops 168 times. It’s got USB sockets, a car style 12V socket, and a standard 3-pin plug point. Of course, the table is also completely weatherproof so you can leave it out during rain or shine, if you wanted to.

To exemplify my views about consumers being suckers for all things pretty, the Intelligent Form Solo has LED inbuilt for subtle lighting effect that glows and it even comes equipped with a Bluetooth.

There is no word on the price yet. But I have a feeling this lounge table is going to cost a pretty penny.

Coway’s Cleaning Device uses megasonic

This is a cleaning device that uses soundwaves to clean everything from perishables to non-perishables. It works on the theory of micro cavitation which looses dirt or contaminants from the surface of the object.

megasonic_coway.jpg
If this thing flies, we would never ever need water to clean ourselves anymore. Just stand in front of the megasonic gadget, an earplug and you’ll be bombastically cleaned. Btw, the Coway’s cleaning device gets a little loud if you’re too dirty - works on the same principle of mothers screeching when you walk on their carpet with muddy shoes.

The IKEA Subway

I really like IKEA stuff even though the quality of the products are questionable with respect to time. But this IKEA Subway in Kobe is just divine.

I like that difference carriages is designed differently with that familiar bright colors that we all love from IKEA.

The mask that cools you down

usbmask3.jpg
In case of an Ebola outbreak due to bio-terror attacks or maybe due to the filthy neighbor’s perfect breeding ground, you might want to wear a mask. And i am sure when you wear a mask, you would feel warm due to the condensation inside the masks which prevents ventilation. Well, if you ever have that problem, Thanko has solved it for you with the Thanko Face Mask, which is USB friendly and it cools you down within the mask. Made with a silicon, light weight fan installed within the mask, your wearing pleasure is heighten and it increases overall satisfaction.

Forget the Ebola virus example, because i forgot scientist wears masks too in labs. So this would be useful. Especially since it has a long, long, long USB cord for you to move around.

The Thanko Face Mask is out in Japan for USD24.
