Concepts

The Smart Shopper gadget has a good concept but I am not sure that you can trust that voice recognition technology. However, you can always remember what you wanted to buy when you read the word that familiar.

h, and it's \$1,200—\$900 more than other 22-inch models from Dell.Still, I really like it as a concept and I hope to see more risk-taking and similar design choices from Dell, if only to see that sort of design filter down into their cheaper hardware.

ot resting there, the company took the concept one step further by adding a USB connection and touch-sensitive interactivity. Yes, that means you can actually use your hand on the floating image to control and move it around.

Thus, we have already seen a great deal of concepts that had some natural elements or were made in the form of a fruit or something else. Lately another device of that sort has been designed.

As far as futuristic design concepts go "Capsule," a fire safety device by Woo Seok Park, certainly looks the part. And I adore the idea of the little heat-sensitive balls that can be thrown or rolled into the area of a fire where they will explode in a burst of fire-extinguishing powder.

Yang Hai, an artist who apparently appreciates utility, has conjured up a concept that aims to make biometrics on PCs a thing of the past, as his aptly-dubbed Security Ring makes certain that no one can peruse your files while you're away. The device enables the user to select a lock down distance, and when the ring bearer exceeds that parameter (or simply heads to the lavatory), the connected PC locks out intruders and only opens up when its master returns.

The concept uses a flat sheet of EL light, but you could probably figure out a way to diffuse some soft fluorescents through some plastic or something.Bright Blind [Pipeline

Although I shudder to think what sort of crusty bits my dog would find a way to insinuate into the slats, I think this "Love Mattress" concept by Mehdi Mojtabvi may have something to it. The middle section of the mattress is broken into slats, making it possible to wrap your arms around someone without cutting off your circulation, or sleep on your belly while sticking your feet straight down.

The wheeled space bun you see above the Honda PUYO concept to be shown at this year's Tokyo Auto Show. From the press release:'PUYO' is a Japanese onomatopoeia that expresses the sensation of touching the vehicle's soft body.

Ericsson is showing off an attractive radio tower concept that not only makes cell phone base stations something akin to sculpture but just happen to produce slightly less CO2 emissions during construction. And because the base stations are completely self-contained inside the 40 meter towers of concrete, no fences are necessary to protect the equipment on the ground—there isn't any.

A sure winner of the "pretty, but utterly useless" category, this "Aether" knife block concept from Vincent Hudson creates different light effects depending on how many knives are placed in the block. Just don't miss the block and sever the power cord

That's what the guys at Panoram Technologies had in mind when they constructed the PV230 and PV720, 2 three-monitor systems that take the concept of wide-screen very seriously.The PV230, which is intended for home or office use, features several configurations depending on how it will be used.

Matteo Bertanelli leads a group of 4 designers that each touched this concept in some way. The Square CD player is hung on the wall just like your LCD or plasma television.

So when a big company like LG wins a Red Dot design award for a creative concept, I definitely take notice. While LG has pushed the design envelope in areas such as household appliances, they've really done nothing of note in the consumer electronics niche, until now

It is a really simple but genius concept. So far there are only AA size batteries but I heard that they are going to make more different sized batteries.

I think that they can produce more types of seats that have the U bar so that you are able to choose the one you like and still feel safe for your bike seat. This gadget is still a concept yet but I hope that somebody will really start producing seats like this one.

It is still a concept and not for sales but I wish it come out on the market. I would love to buy it, how about you? When I wake up in the morning because of a frustrating loud high sound I want to kill somebody.

The new concept is now available at the stores. This gadget is a pretty cool thing to have but I think that I do not like to torture myself with something like this.

A neat concept I would say. The only thing left is to find the tunes that sound the best in surround environment.

his invention will be a blessing for all homemakers and moms whose children manage to get dirty after being left alone for a mere five minutes. If this concept gets mass-produced, we will no longer need detergents anymore! Moreover, no washing machines either.
