The Brit Speaker’s Marriage

Posted: 10 Dec 2012 06:09 AM PST

The designers of the Josiah DAB Radio and Bluetooth Speaker call their creation the marriage of British ceramic heritage from Stoke-on-Trent with the simplicity and playfulness practiced by the Soho design team. An interesting explanation for a handmade ceramic creation! Anyways, the speakers are deigned with wit and functionality and will look great right next to my Buddha plant.

Designers: Kwame Ferreria and Yayo

Divide And View

Posted: 10 Dec 2012 02:16 AM PST

The Always With Three is a very innovative approach to making smartphones easier to use. Most of them are now offering a decent size screen, however the multiple tasks and features that are packed make them a tad overwhelming to use. The idea here is to have three dynamic pop-up screens that expand when used in the pop-up mode. One screen is dedicated for use as a keyboard (and joystick) while the other two navigate between media player and display. Basically an expandable device, but with innovative variations!

An iPhone Dock and So Much More

Posted: 10 Dec 2012 12:01 AM PST

When it comes to iPhone accessories, the Lumawake breaks expectations, blowing other dock designs out of the water both aesthetically and functionally! Why functionally? Well, to say it charges just barely scratches the surface – it also tracks sleeping patterns, integrates with home theaters, has an open API for developers to develop compatible software, and waaaay more! Hit the jump to see all the specs!

FEATURE HIGHLIGHTS:

Tracking & Reporting– Monitors and reports sleep patterns daily, allowing people to adjust their daily schedules to optimize restorative sleep.

Simulated Sunrise – Multicolor LED lighting gradually illuminates beginning at the preset wake window. Light falling on the eyes before a wake event has been proven to increase energy hormones preparing the body to wake naturally.

Smart Wake Technology – Using motion sensors and a complex algorithm, Lumawake was designed to wake users at the optimal time in their sleep cycle, helping to wake you feeling refreshed and energized.

Non-Contact – Unlike competitors, Lumawake does not require you to leave your phone on the bed or wear headbands or wristbands.

Easy of Use – Lights up as you approach so you never have to fumble for the charger in the dark. One handed docking, works with any generation iPhone and with any case.

Home Automation System Integration – Seamlessly integrated with home automation systems like Belkin's WebMo and SmartThings to do things like automatically turn the lights and television off after you've fallen asleep, then open blinds and brew coffee the moment you wake up.

Fully Customizable – Users can easily create custom notifications using the LEDs and can change setting and/or turn off any features they wish using the free app.  

Compatibility across all generation iPhone’s and iPod Touches is achieved through swappable modules making upgrades painless

Open API – Developers can create apps with Lumawake hardware: Microprocessor, Motion sensors, Multicolor LED's

Designer: Lumawake

The Hexicopter

Posted: 10 Dec 2012 12:01 AM PST

Designed for disaster rescue and other squad-based missions, the Hatchet unmanned copter concept utilizes not one, not 2, not 3… but a 6 rotor design that gives it superior maneuverability and mid/low altitude stability beyond that of ordinary helicopters. Modular components can be interchanged for different missions so it’s capable of both surveying areas for preliminary reconnaissance and performing rescues or even fire extinguishments, making it a versatile tool for a variety of operations.
 
Other on-board equipment includes an infrared scanning imager, instant photography live-feed cameras, and an unmanned control system for operation from the ground.
