Read, Conquer and Share

Posted: 05 Dec 2011 04:45 AM PST

It's the digital age and social media is our new friend. Sites like Facebook already let our friends know what online newspaper or article we are reading, so it's only natural for technology to want to bridge the gap between the surreal and paper. The next time you have a book in hand and want to immediately tweet a quote; you'll probably have something like the Kuote to help you out.

This nifty device is adept at copy-pasting text from paper to the digital world, thanks to its Internet connectivity and intuitive micro lens beneath the glass surface.

Here is how it works, "to use Kuote, place this piece of glass on anything that has text on it. The micro lens inside will reflect the image beneath to the embedded camera. The optical character recognition (OCR) technology can detect the edge of each character and translate it into a digital text format. Circumnavigate the edge of the hole with your finger to move the cursor, and then select the text with a finger drag. The text will be highlighted as if you were using a marker. Swipe upwards with two fingers to use this selected text for a Tweet or a Facebook message, or save a note in your could storage service. More gestures can be pre-set to activate a specific service. Swing the Kuote to reset it."

Kuote won the 2011 red dot design concept award.

Designers: Xu Tao, Wang Junfeng, Christina Yang & Gong Yanyan for Orange Labs Beijing

Ten Sexy Ways To Spice Things Up!

Posted: 05 Dec 2011 02:48 AM PST

Creativity has no boundaries and when you are fueled with good intent to spice things up in your relationship, then spectacular creations begin to take shape! If you are on the lookout to zing things up this festive season in a sexy kinda way, Yanko Design has drawn up a list of ten innovative ways to do this. Wishing you and your partner have a Sexy Christmas this year!

10) ZeroPointZero Handcuff Watch by Luis Berumen

A legit way to explore fetishes is this curious wonder called ZeroPointZero Handcuff Watch. Digital watch or a bold statement to explore the wild-side of your love-life; take your pick.

9) Wallpeppr by Carlo Jorges

What better way to express your love than to have your partner's image as your wallpaper! The high-tech Wallpeppr is an innovative way to do it with the help of sophisticated inkjet-technology.

8 ) Lyla Premium Massager by LELO

Lyla is a premium massager for ladies and it features LELO's pioneering SenseMotion™ technology. Perfect to spice things up and rekindle the romance this Christmas!

7) Couch Counseling by Danielle Sobik

An adorable way to kiss-and-make-up! This dynamic sofa sports cold blue patterns when a couple sits far apart, the hues get warmer and patterns change in relation to proximity. So as you cozy up, the patterns transform to warm pink petals indicating that the fight is thawing and better sense prevailing.

6) Aurora Second Skin by Lighting by Kyeok Kim

Aurora is a creative illuminating jewelry, which can be worn to pique the seductive element of the evening. Strategic placement can do wonders to flatter the silhouette, better than any ambient lighting!

5) Uno o Nessuno Table by Stefano Merlo & Claudia Taddia

Uno o Nessuno Table is the perfect way to find out how coordinated you and your partner can be. Each setting (plates, forks, spoons, glasses) is tethered to the opposite. So if one person uses the glass, the other can't pick up theirs. Interesting!

4) Botanical Martini Glass by Benjamin Hubert

Love this perfect martini glass that compliments the perfect mood settings of a spiced up romantic evening! Clink Bombay Sapphire in the Botanical Glas!

3) Bodylicious by Hiroshi Tsunoda

Inspired by Nyotaimori and Nantaimori, the Bodylicious service is a cool way to spike up the evening and show off your culinary skills. It's clean fun plus saves the best for last.

2) Heart Of Love by D.K. & Wei

If you are sure, then go for it, because nothing else will spice up an evening with your partner than a ring to back your intentions. It can't get mushier or romantic than this!

1) Tiani by LELO

It all sums up to the steaming up the room with pure love and belonging. If you are intimate enough and need a gentle swoosh of excitement, then Tiani is good for adding the spice.

Lovely folks stay safe and enjoy this season of giving with much gratitude for what you have. A little dash of naughtiness goes down well with Santa, so don't forget to spice it up!

Solid Wood Splendor

Posted: 05 Dec 2011 12:03 AM PST

Intuitive functionality meets unpredictable geometric styling in this solid wood lamp by Amitrani. To turn on the embedded LED light, simply graze a finger across the metallic button at the base. A super-extended arm balanced by a weighted base make this a sturdy desktop lighting solution that won’t obtrude workspace. 

Designer: Amitrani

Syringe for Safe Injection

Posted: 05 Dec 2011 12:02 AM PST

The One Time Injection Needle aims to help prevent accidental and intentional misuse, both of which contribute to the spread of disease such as HIV And Hepatitis C. In this design, the safety cap must be pulled back to insert the needle. Once retracted, the cap will stay in place to indicate prior use. Additionally, liquid-activated letters read “USED” once in contact with blood or another fluid.

Designer: Gyeongwan Koo (Oliver)

Electromagnetic Propulsion Bikes

Posted: 05 Dec 2011 12:01 AM PST

The Pandur 2L and Modelul Le aren’t quite motorcycles but we can’t call them “two-wheelers” either. In fact, “two-ballers” would be a more appropriate name. The vehicles are based on an electromagnetic propulsion system that involves the movement of a sphere inside a shell and suspension given by the electric field between the body and each sphere. Contact is only found between rider and vehicle body as well as the spherical rubber exterior and road.

Definitely out there, but sure to get you thinkin’.

Designer: Lucian Popescu
