Classical musicians gets computer-friendly with the EMS
I don’t even pretend to be a classical music expert, but do occasionally channel surf into the BBC’s Proms coverage, watching as a conductor stumbles onto the stage armed with several volumes of sheet music. A sight that might not last much longer if the EMS catches on.
Short of desk space? You need the Hanging Printer
Desks are never the tidiest of paces – the monitor, speaker system, mouse and mat, keyboard, paperwork, mug of cold tea…the list goes on. Which is why the Hanging Printer by Jin Hee Kim, Hyung Il Kim and Woo Seok Park could be clever concept.
Conceptual wireless speaker system inspired by bamboo? Pandas say yes
Ahhh, concept products. Like ’em, love ’em, or just don’t understand ’em, we can’t seem to get away from them. Whilst this pink speaker system might be better suited to our relations at Shiny Shiny, the fact that it’s been inspired by bamboo should grab your attention.
With Wi-fi, it can sync…
Bomi Kim Tactile MP3 player – braille-like control
My MP3 player rarely sees the light of day – it permanently lives in a pocket or bag, even when I’m looking for a track. A control system like the one on the Tactile MP3 player would certainly help.
Someone mocked up a fake Zune Phone to keep themselves amused
Well, we’ve all got to find something to do over Christmas. One man made this – a concept Zune phone. Unsurprisingly, it;s a total iPhone rip-off – full-face touch screen, curvaceous black design – it’s probably even got a shiny metal concept back.
Jeep Renegade concept hybrid is straight outta Halo
This isn’t just a “bit like” Halo 3’s Warthog multi-personnel deathwagon, it’s practically identical. The same big wheels. The same front end. The same roofless design. The same low-profile active camouflage green. The same cut-away back bit for angry space marines to stand on and fire turret guns into the vulnerable cargo bays of attacking alien spaceships.
Sony Ericsson concept mobile with full-sized USB port, for easy transfer of pr0n films
I’m a bit late to the game with this (that’s what you get for neglecting Bloglines), but the idea behind this concept Sony Ericsson mobile is just too good not to show you.
As you can see, it features a full-sized USB port, meaning you don’t have to mess about with pesky propriety cables. Imagine the possibilities a full-sized USB slot could offer owners of the mobile – why, if it…
Volkswagen's "space up! blue" hybrid solar concept van thing
Yes, it’s really called “space up! blue”. Hopefully it’ll get a more modest name should the thing ever arrive here. The VW 145, for example. Or, if they want to be really fancy, the V2000. There’s no need for exclamation marks in product names.
The sweet little mini concept car is powered by batteries and hydrogen, running for a very impressive 220 miles when charged to the max with both options…
Volkswagen Viseo concept car, featuring external OLED screen for displaying info
Phwroar, would you take a look at that Volkswagen! It’s certainly a far cry from the Beetle and Golf models, eh? Still, Germans have always been known for their forward-thinking design aesthetics, and this concept car doesn’t disappoint.
Electric cars are all the rage, as we’ve seen in countless other offerings in the shape of the Tesla Roadster, Suzuki PIXY, and three-wheeled Aptera.
Created by Marc Kirsch, with Volkswagen’s support, the three-seater car not only has an aerodynamic bod, but…
Mow like the wind with the F1 lawnmower
Styled on Formula One cars from the 1970s, when they were exciting death traps rather than fully automated boredom generators, the F1 Lawnmower is a flashback to the sideburned glory years of motor racing.
