wPad

Posted in: AND, charger, Detachable, Geng Kaiqian, Wise Pad, with

There is only one word for the Wise Pad – exceptional! Here is a tablet that has a device that is piggybacking on it and can be used to make calls and even juice up via kinetics. I bet there will be some complex tech involved, which only my engineering friends will be able to help figure out. Until then I am going to enjoy this project as a concept and so should you!

Cook n’ Charge!

Posted in: Charge, charger, electricity

The EcoCharge system is a portable and green solution for giving your devices a quick boost by recycling heat energy. Using thermoelectric generator modules, the unit converts heat generated from cookware, home-heaters or any other source into usable electricity. A flexible magnetic face attaches to any metal surface so the device can be used almost anywhere. Equipped with an OLED display, it also monitors the conduction efficiency of different surfaces so the user knows always knows what kind of charge they’re getting.

Double Dock

Posted in: Çağlar Emre, charger, DockOff

The DockOff is a unique charging station that doubles up as a wall mount as well as tabletop dock. As a wall mount when it is hooked into a socket, a unique slot allows you to use the station as a multi tap plug point. This means you can still you’re the plug point to hook up one more electronic item. A very unique tangle of process, but it all makes sense when you use it together.

DockOff is a 2012 iF Design Talents entry.

Galileo

Posted in: businesstools, charger, filmmaking, iOS, ipadapps, iphoneaccessories

Support a Kickstarter project bringing remote 360° panning and tilting to iOS devices

Galileo4.jpg

From Josh Guyot—Motrr co-founder and designer of Snow Peak’s SnowMiner headlamp—comes Galileo, a 360° degree panning and tilting mechanism for iOS devices. With multiple potential applications, Galileo-mounted devices can be controlled remotely by swiping the screen of a secondary device to pan and tilt. The spherical platform allows for infinite movement and any number of viewing angles. Guyot and partner JoeBen Bevirt also created Joby and the Gorillapod line of malleable tripods, proving their talent for ingenious tech accessories.

While the most obvious application is for video conferencing, Bevirt and Guyot see Galileo as a useful tool for baby monitoring, time lapse photography, iPhone movie making and virtual home tours. Conscious that the device may find other applications later on, Galileo comes with an SDK kit for app developers as well as a mounting screw for tripods and other camera equipment. Also acting as a charging station, Galileo comes with a rechargeable battery of its own for use in any situation.

Visit Galileo’s Kickstarter page to pledge your support and make the project happen, and watch this video to find out more.
