The Magic of UFO

Posted: 07 Mar 2012 08:12 AM PST

UFO is concept phone that takes advantage of flexible LCD screens and cloud computing. In its usual form the phone sports a widescreen display that enhances user experience. I love the way it moves from a simple phone to an extensive media device. SMS, projector, music player, movies or phone, use this device just the way you want!

Stand-up Toilet

Posted: 07 Mar 2012 07:59 AM PST

Going weak knees outta love and romance is a good thing, but when age (or aching gym-tired muscles) catches up, even simple tasks like sitting on the toilet seat become a pain. The Stand-helping Closestool Toilet Seat features a seat with a hydraulic-powered lever function, which helps you to stand up with ease. I'd be more comfortable if the design included a hand rail to stabilize the standing-up process. Tippling over will be such a shame!

Stand-helping Closestool is a 2011 red dot design concept winner.

Chair of Fairytales

Inspired by books, the Pages chair allows the user to adjust the seat height and backrest cushioning simply by turning its colorful padded “pages.” The imaginative design encourages interaction with the user and has a unique, fun and colorful aesthetic that is sure to be a conversation starter!

Gymbot!

Posted: 07 Mar 2012 12:02 AM PST

As the trend of at-home fitness expands to gaming platforms like Wii and XBox, it’s easy to imagine that the future holds even more exciting advancements in the physical relationship between man and machine. The Gymbot is one example of how our home workouts might evolve. If my trainer wasn’t so hot, I’d totally invest in a prototype!This humanoid robot has articulated joints and can mimic any human movement with ease, speed, and precision. To navigate, the bot uses a 3D video camera, scanner, and thermal camera located behind its helmet visor.

Like a professional human trainer, Gymbot will evaluate your heart rate, track your diet, the efficiency of your workouts, and even yell at you when you’re being lazy!

Super Space-savin’ Chair

Posted: 07 Mar 2012 12:01 AM PST

Gotta love this fun, multifunctional design by Paulo Corceiro. The colorful Flippo chair doubles as a table by utilizing a simple folding back. Simply lay it down and you’ve got a side table with the perfect height next to another chair of its kind. Convenient built-in shelves under the seat make it a great chair for small spaces and allow for easy access to magazines, books or other objects.
