Concepts

Several Indian companies are already interested in this concept, and first public available cars will appear later this year. The cost is very affordable - 3500 Euros for the cheapest model.

Kyocera developers who resident in San Diego and Bangalore have gratefully shared their groundwork that incorporates mobile phone technologies of tomorrow. At the first glance the Kyocera EOS concept phone doesn’t seem to have more than seven or ten percents of parts our eyes got used to. If EOS was an end product, it wouldn’t need to be plugged for a recharge, would feature very innovative ergonomics and tactile sensations of human’s skin. All that though is achieved by technologies that are already used today but have never before been united in a mobile phone.

But it is real!Student from the Virginia Tech University has made an interesting concept that has already won the Greener Gadget award. The LED lamp that uses the most infinite energy source possible - the Earth gravity! The lamp, called Gravia, is about four feet tall, and it looks like a tube made from glass.

However, Chocolate Agency, which has recently designed an absolutely new concept, thinks that some innovations should be implemented in order to make high-end cell phones even more attractive. According to their new design the whole surface of the cell phone represents a touch sensitive display.

The report about new concept of the most compact DVD player rings true. It became possible to create such a compact device due to the cutting-edge technology.

Another thing that should be mentioned is a modern stylish design of the concept. However, there is one significant disadvantage of these "rings".

His concept iRing represents a high-end ring, which helps you by means of Bluetooth technology and a tiny touch screen to control Apple devices, such as iPod and iPhone. Although it's available just in two colors - black and white - it can be considered as a very stylish device with well-known Apple symbol on it.

Solar power has to be a long term investment to make an individual better off. Solar cells or panels are small productive and reliable today, they are not reasonably priced only. And what’s more, installation of a fully assembled solar cell complex will cost the same as the gears price and will take you intolerably long to finally set it to work for you. This is exactly why we have PICNIC Green Challenge and similar concourses giving money prices to people or enterprises that have figured out one or two environmental problems. Verdana Solar was one to get 100,000 Euros for its easy to install hence cheap solar panel. It is not yet on the market, but we hope the price will help to unleash it before summer.

What about a lighter that doesn't need gas at all?This conceptual lighter named Kool is not a usual lighter that we use every day. It is flameless, needs no gas to work and is fully electric, using resistance coils to light cigarettes just like the car cigarette lighter.

The idea of making planting easier and even environmentally friendlier is not new. The recent machines from MID students we have seen not long ago is great for plant care, but it is pretty big and it can not actually be used outdoors and on areas as big as fields. There is however an oppositely different gadget. Seedbomb is a designer’s concept for bringing huge areas of dead land back to life. We can’t seriously speak about its pros and cons because we haven’t yet heard it is going to be used somewhere, but we can imagine, right?

This engine is a hydrogen-powered A2 aircraft concept that would be capable of hitting Mach-5 - five times the speed of sound (3400 mph), making it somewhat the spiritual successor of the Concorde. What makes it different is range and efficiency, capable of ferrying up to 300 passengers from Brussels to Sydney in less than four hours.

Also, this is, in some way, a "proof of concept", proof that it is possible to construct Swiss Army Knife with a ton of tools inside. It is possible to make good business on them too, and Victorinox proves it: price for that knife is not so cheap - 792 dollars, and we think its sales are good enough to make manufacturers happy for their "monster knife", however it is more of advertisement move

Astonishing popularity of iPhone draws attention of not gadget lovers only. Even concept makers began to use Apple's smartphone for their interesting and futuristic designs. Due to its advanced connectivity and large multi-touch display, iPhone provides excellent remote control possibilities. Many iPhone users started to develop this side of their device: there already are iPhone controlled toys, robots... And now there is real car, controlled with help of an iPhone! It is only a concept for now, which will be revealed on Geneva Auto Show. More details follow.

From the very launch of Eee PC, ASUS do not stop to amaze us. Taking Apple as their example, they bring some sort of Apple style into PC world. Look for yourself: ASUS Eee Top PC is a PC version of Apple's iMac, all-in-one PC that keeps wire hassle away; ASUS Eee Box is a PC version of Apple's Mac Mini, ultra-portable PC made using "Bring Your Own Keyboard and Display" philosophy. Now, it's time for keyboards. ASUS Eee Keyboard PC looks similar to Apple keyboard; however, this gadget is not only a keyboard. It is a complete featured PC made into keyboard form! More details follow.

MIT students are again on their way to total optimization of divers and opposite paths to greater progress. Less than a month ago we were reviewing energy recovering shock absorbers also designed by a team of students from MIT and we liked a lot it’s uncompromising usefulness. Today we are taking a look at robots that came out of MIT Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory. They can no more or less take full care of a garden. AgBot from Louisiana State University could do similar stuff, but trust me on this – these are completely different leagues.

Due to the fact that no additional information about this gadget's characteristics, design and price is given there is no possibility to say something about its usefulness, advantages and disadvantages. Yet the concept itself is very unusual and original, so after its introduction to the market some lovers of this cell phone may appear.

A wristwatch is such an attribute nowadays. Except for a watch itself, every single portable gadget tends to aid its users with information on time, date, weather, etc. In this turmoil old-fashioned watch is kind of lost and seems irrelevant and useless to many people, especially young people, who choose to not have a watch at all. That puts one of the most important devices of our fathers in danger of extinction. This might be the reason why Ulysse Nardin, worldwide popular wristwatch manufacturer, has decided to apply some of their technologies to bright future mobile phones, notably a kinetic winder.

.. e you like expressing yourself and are a great lover of original design, you will probably like the concept that was designed by Hyomi Kim. Designer's new gadget represents quite an original lighting system ..

Every year many people die in car accidents, which is a disappointing fact. Quite often it is because of high-speed blow-outs, or when driver forget to check the pressure. Even the small gap can be deadly at high speeds. It is even more critical in military, when tires are very vulnerable to damage. There were many interesting improvements to tire design to make them more durable and resistant to damage, like "run while flat" feature. Although they were safer than usual, they just couldn't offer good protection from explosives or shrapnel. Military engineers were thinking how to make a tire that would be protected from shrapnel and even explosives, and they found a solution - tires without air at all!

It seems that ASUS has some aces in sleeve when it is time to talk about touchscreen terminals and it is not only the P552W model but also a new handset Asus Galaxy7. The Asian company is planning to launch a terminal that will be a rival for Samsung Omnia. The Asian company is planning to launch a terminal that will be a rival for Samsung Omnia and that includes a touchscreen (WQVGA or WVGA) plus a 5 MP camera, a trackball for a non-touch navigation and 3G connectivity and WiFi.
