Future Control

Posted in: Dor Tal, Predictables, Prediction, Projector

Discovering tangible patterns and predicting future outcomes based on it has always enticed the collective imagination of humanity. From mapping of celestial movements to the weatherman’s forecast, this fascination for predicting the future has helped civilizations to make sense of the macro system that they are part of. The ‘Predictables’ project aims to bring this forecasting to a personal level.

It largely consists of two parts. The first part constitutes an app that scours for the digital data an individual and his social circle produces. This app then connects the dots to make sensible patterns and intelligently proposes future outcomes. The second part consists of systems that interfaces with the individual. The interaction with the individual is made possible using intuitive interfaces projected on a variety of surfaces using a smart watch or a desktop pico projector.

The complex analysis algorithm promises to bring prediction into a wide variety of areas in personal life including career, love and friendships. I would willingly part with my entire savings for it if I could get accurate predictions about my Gf’s mood swings. :)

Remote Computing Reimagined

Posted in: Projector, remote computing
Solo is portable projecting concept that offers the user access to remote desktop computing power and granting them greater freedom to work away from the office.  Utilising high resolution projection technology as well as touch-surface inputs, the concept reimagines remote working within a single device, perfect for presentations and client engagement.
Functioning as an access device, rather than the computing hardware, allows the user a means of accessing the necessary software and systems they would ordinarily have within a studio while they are away, enabling working from home or working on the fly.
In addition to the individual user benefits the product also features a gesture recognition sensor in the lower portion of the device, allowing 360 degree input recognition—meaning anybody sitting around the device can control what they are seeing.
Initially the user will be required to sync the device with any office hardware which they wish to be able to access remotely, through a software based system allowing login control as a safety precaution. Stored on a contact charging dock in the office, the user can easily grab the device on their way to meetings. On location, the user can set up a workspace, scalable to either individual or group use, and work as if their computer were in front of them. The compact nature of the device makes it preferable over laptop computing and the projection size gives visible advantages over tablet use.

A Perfect Circle

Posted in: compass, Projector

Just like the name suggests, the Easy-to-View Compass makes reading the radius of circles or arcs in technical drawings a cinch. Numerical values are instantly calculated and displayed on its bright LCD screen. It’s not only more accurate, but decreases fatigue by eliminating the needs to constantly readjust and monitor the setting.

Designers: Cheol Woong Seo & Jae Hee Park

Spelling The Death Of Gadget Clutter

Posted in: Bluetooth Speaker, Cellphones, Device, Headset, LifeHub, Lucid Design, Portable Audio, Projector, smartphone

LifeHub is a paradox in many ways, on one hand it marks the birth of an innovative concept and on the other hand it spells the death of many! In a nutshell, LifeHub is a Watch, Smartphone, Headset, Key, Wallet, Bluetooth Speaker and Projector, all rolled into one. By investing in this one item, you end up eliminating the need for eight individual devices, thus saving up on space and resources. Sounds interesting? Read on….

  • LifeHub is a Watch, the Memory polymer and a bendable OLED screen creates a stylish and secure bracelet that tells you the time. Messages, weather or music, get them all here.
  • LifeHub is a Smartphone, bend the bracelet into a candy bar where the simplest of interfaces; make video calls by bending just the bottom half of the device and setting it on a surface. Apps, contacts, messages, email, games, media, and feeds greet you in high definition and with stereo sound.
  • LifeHub is a Headset, two discreet Bluetooth earpieces with microphones are secured in the device and have to be snapped off to use as a headset. While snapped in, they function as an earpiece + microphone or external stereo speakers when activated.
  • LifeHub is a Key that is password protected and programmable. They work with physical locks enabled with LifeHub access. The Key also doubles up as a data transfer device.
  • LifeHub is a Wallet that stores Credit Card and Debit Card data from several cards.
  • LifeHub is a Speaker that docks into the base to become portable audio speakers with rich bass. The device is also automatically backed up when docked.
  • LifeHub is a Projector that is motion controlled in both flat and tilted positions.
  • LifeHub is recharged on a charging pad and can function as your alarm clock, notepad, game center, message panel and weather station. It can even play you Internet radio!

Break The Cooking ICE

Posted in: Julen Pejenaute, Projector, recipe

ICE is the mix of a lamp, mood lighting and recipe database that can assist in making your cooking and dining experience even more delightful. The theme for this year’s Electrolux Design Lab was to create appliances that enhance your cooking experience by livening your senses. The ICE adheres to this in many ways.

As the designer explains, “When placed above any cooking or dining area ICE can scan its surroundings and assist the user in creating the best meal to suit any occasion. ICE can scan ingredients you’ve already chosen to cook and give suggestions on meals that can be made from those ingredients. The user can also access a vast database of recipes and ICE will guide you every step of the way.”

ICE is a 2012 Electrolux Design Lab Top Ten finalist entry.

Designer: Julen Pejenaute

The Daily News

Posted in: Eco-newspaper, Projector, Shen Guo

With the advent of e-readers and tablets, the way we consume newspapers has changed drastically. To keep up with the trend is the Eco-newspaper, a projector device that projects the daily news to the table countertop while you flip through your favorite paper. The idea is not only to use technology to its best advantage, but also to cut down on the newspaper waste and conservation. Digital reading is here to stay, so I guess traditionalist will have to adopt it one day!
