Smartphones and tablets are great, but they are definitely not made for typing for long periods of time. That's why it's still the best classic keyboard, but we can't just tolerate it. Fortunately, keyboards of this format did not rest on their laurels and adapted to the situation. The new proof is myType, a portable pocket keyboard made of silicone with an autonomy of eight hours, which connects wirelessly to a mobile device, be it a smartphone or a tablet, via Bluetooth technology.
Phree from Kickstarter - a smart pencil that turns the world into an infinitely large piece of paper
Phree is a pencil-like device that allows us to turn any physical surface into a virtual piece of paper. With it, you are no longer limited to the surface of the smartphone screen, where the smart pencil simultaneously "redraws" and saves your written ideas and sketches. At the same time, Phree brings us back to the times when we had more interaction with the world around us and makes sure that we don't forget to write by hand so quickly, you know, like this with a pen and not via a (virtual) keyboard.
The Oxboard two-wheeled vehicle is practically a Segway without the handlebars. This makes it easier to carry and easier to store. And it looks even better. Developed by a Danish company, it combines Segway technology and skater culture. It's easy for a child to operate, but it's also extremely agile. This is evidenced by the child's demonstration, which you can see below.
The French-born designer, Pauline Deltour, designed a capsule collection of "Fine" mobile accessories for the Lexon company, representing refined elegance for a modern and urban lifestyle.
If we look back only ten years ago, TVs were still real fat, while today they are just bones and skin. South Korea's LG Display went one step further, as their bendable OLED TV, the first curved OLED receiver in the world, is only 0.97 millimeters thick, i.e. less than a millimeter, and weighs only 1.9 kilograms. It's no wonder that it can only be attached to the wall with the help of magnets, and it can be removed as easily as removing a picture.
We don't need to emphasize how important it is that your mobile device has a sufficiently charged battery when you take it on the go. But once you're on the road, it's often not easy to find a place where you can charge your smartphone or tablet. The Solartab charger therefore relies on a thousand-year-old and inexhaustible source of energy - the sun. It also has an auxiliary battery that stores solar energy for when the sun is behind the clouds or when you are visiting the other side of the world.
The Slovenian team Ondu, led by Elvis Halilović, is forging the iron while it's hot, as two years after the success of the wooden camera on Kickstarter, it returns to the scene of the crime with an improved line of Ondu Pinhole MK II cameras. The second-generation Ondu reached the $20,000 "high" bar on its first day, beating its previous time by 24 hours, when it managed to reach the set goal in about 48 hours. Compared to its predecessor, the wooden camera is more durable, and the sophisticated magnetic system means fewer problems with lighting.
In 2014, the police in Slovenia recorded as many as 2,682 missing bicycles, and the actual number of stolen bicycles is much higher, as not everyone reports the theft. The possibility of a thief working and a bad and cheap lock (for example, a thin knitting needle) is almost the same for a thief today as leaving a bicycle unlocked. Thus, you have a high probability of becoming part of the black statistics. But not with the fixed Linka smart lock, which "recruits" money on Kickstarter. Also equipped with a siren, it attaches to the bicycle frame and is connected to your smartphone via Bluetooth technology.
Guitar tuners are a great piece of equipment for strumming, because even if you don't have perfect pitch, you can fine-tune your guitar with electronic tuners. But in today's times, such devices are quite redundant, as their functions are easily taken over by multi-purpose smartphones. Why have a special utility when you can have a tuner right in the form of an app. UltraTuner embodied the spirit of the times. It is a guitar tuning application for users of iOS and Android devices, which is also optimized for the Apple Watch.
At Nikon, they developed the Heartography system, which allows dogs to take pictures of things that excite them. It recognizes this through the dog's heartbeat, which is detected by the collar, and the result is sent to a camera holder, which the dog carries like a barrel Bernard. Every time the furry four-legged friend sees something that excites him and gets his heart rate up, the photographer snaps a photo. So they can show people what they like, what they saw, what they did, where they went, what they smelled and who they hung out with.
If there's one thing we've learned from science fiction movies, it's that holograms rule the future. And it is more than obvious that such a future is here. At least that's according to the concept of the company Number One, which wants to make hologram screens for computers a reality. Their first attempt is a transparent 27-inch screen with a resolution of 1920 x 1080 pixels, which goes by the name HTD-01. Future, welcome home.
