| Posted: 17 Jan 2012 09:46 AM PST This futuristic EV is Opel’s premier aim at delivering electric mobility that’s affordable for everyone. The Rak e (pronounced rack-ee) is made entirely of recyclable, synthetic material and weighs only a third the weight of a modern car. The Rak E offers zero-emission driving and can travel 61 miles on a single 3 hour charge. The “inside-out” design approach dictated the unique form which features exposed rear wheels and a fighter plane-like cockpit fit with information displays and infotainment. Designer: KISKA in cooperation with Opel ----------        |
| Posted: 17 Jan 2012 07:49 AM PST Well here’s a novel idea; an integrated timer on a pot lid called Time Me. Set exactly how long something is to simmer, boil, blanche and whatever else cookbooks tell you to do. This idea seems so obvious. If you’ve seen something similar, shoot me a link otherwise I’m going to have to call Captain Oblivious because this is most certainly a job for him. There’s no mention of what kind of “ding” the timer will make, because you know – that ding is very important. Zojirushi rice cookers hum a little diddy when they’ve completed their cook cycle. This needs something similar. Designers: Wu Yi-chen , Wan Ru-yi, Liu Xiaoming, Xie Yan-cong & Zhou Zhou ----------     |
| Posted: 17 Jan 2012 03:34 AM PST Braille Electric Plug Tags are Velcro fastening labels that identify a plug using Braille, embossed icon and English abbreviation of products. The concept is backed by the research that many independent visually impaired folks find it difficult to identify their appliance/gadget plugs, especially when many of them are hooked on a multi-socket power board. Clever and easily reusable, the concept is good for regular folks too. Braille Electric Plug Tags is a 2011 red dot design concept winner. Designer: Shuwen Chen ----------     |
| Posted: 17 Jan 2012 03:03 AM PST Brick is a sleek personal computer with a transparent display that kinda reminds you of concepts that Mac likes to work on. The concept here uses technology to the max by packing in features like magnifier, text translation, video and still photography, projector and much more. Working on the maxim that "a PC is no longer a PC anymore," the designer duo want to convey that accessible networks and true mobility are the key ingredients of futurist products…even if it's a PC! Designers: Shaocheng Huang & Yuyin Huang ----------     |
| Posted: 17 Jan 2012 12:05 AM PST This interesting design aims to fulfill two very distinct functions: recreational biking and seating! At first glance, the C-Bike is just a chair on wheels, but attach it’s front-mounted 3rd wheel and you’ve got a fixed gear trike for trips to the park or around the neighborhood. A stabilizer on the inside of each wheel ensures you won’t roll away when your seated. Designer: Reza Rachmat Sumirat ----------     |
| Modern Phototherapy for Newborns Posted: 17 Jan 2012 12:02 AM PST The Firefly is the first low-cost phototherapy device trusted by Southeast Asian clinicians to be used for treating newborn jaundice in the same room with mothers in rural hospitals, optimizing the cycle of phototherapy and feeding for rapid and effective treatment. Its combination top & bottom phototherapy, table-top size, easily cleanable bassinet, intuitiveness, and high-tech aesthetic make it an ideal (and affordable) device for low-resource, remote settings like Vietnam and Southeast Asia. Designer: Design that Matters ----------     |
