The 45-degree Effect

Posted in: Outdoor Flashlight, Xu Jian

The Outdoor Flashlight has two main selling points to the concept. One – it has a 45-degree angle to it and two – it has twice the solar charging panels to it. The angle is to ensure proper illumination and ability to guide the light in the correct direction. The solar panels give it the extra edge in eco-charging. Since it is the outdoor light, you will have enough exposure to the sun!

Aqua Audio

Posted in: Uncategorized

There’s nothing like the natural sound of moving water to relax the mind and body. Swonar harnesses this tranquility in an interactive instrument you can control. 5 rhythmically oriented streams allow water to fall on stones that have each been perforated to achieve a unique tone. Users can make their own music by using a pressure touch interface or sit back and enjoy the soothing sound of falling water.

Designer: Ujwal I. K.

Get Ready for Oculus Rift!

Posted in: virtual reality

After being successfully crowd-funded, the consumer version of the much anticipated Oculus Rift is still a mystery. This concept by Carlos Pendas gives a glimpse as to what we might expect the virtual reality head-mounted display to look like. It’s designed around 3 main features: a curved screen, integrated headphones and a gesture recognition system. Simple and friendly, it’s a far cry from the gargantuan headsets of yesteryear!

The flat-pack design requires only that you unfold it before placing on the wall, making it as easy to ship as it is to install. Simply unfold it and add your desired bulb for a wild wall ornament that will brighten any room!

Table That Is A PC

Posted in: C-Walker, Desktops, lifestyle, Nithin V Antony

The C-Walker is a radical PC + Table concept whose idea germinates from the fact that workstations with CPU, wires, screen and keyboard look cluttered and distracting. One of the ways to streamline the desk is to integrate the PC into the table itself. What we have now is a desk with wires that are internally set, a virtual keyboard and a projected screen. USB slots and CD ROM slots are flushed to the side of tabletop, along with the power button. Essentially we have a hybrid desk that part PC and part table. Yes, the functional future has arrived!

Touch and Tune Radio

Posted in: Uncategorized

This interactive radio by Daniel Kaufman relies on light and human touch to operate its various functionalities. To raise and lower the volume, the device uses light controlled by an aperture. As for its tuning, the user simply touches or slides a finger anywhere on the mahogany veneer which is embedded with a SoftPot potentiometer. Simple shifts in functionality create new interaction and new appreciation for a classically simple product! See it in action —>

Stick Thin Lighting

Posted in: Uncategorized

Stick is a skinny twist on the pendant that’s sleek, slender and functional in any setting. It’s unimposing in kitchens, dining rooms, and living rooms… only when it’s switched on does its beautifully minimalistic form come into full view. In simplistic combinations of wood and powder-coated steel, it’s as subtle as it is a statement of style.

Designer: Nicolò Zavagno

Move Over iPhone 6, We Have Apple iPhone Plus

Posted in: Faisal Semari, plus

The story so far is that Apple has always conformed to a set style for the iPhone. Little deviation from the blueprint, for example display size, thickness, curves etc. has been noted. So how about an iPhone that is radically different in design, something like this Apple iPhone Plus concept!
