Morph - mobile phone from the future

Morph, a concept cell phone co-developed by Nokia Research Center and the University of Cambridge, is featured in an online display presented in conjunction with "Design and the Elastic Mind," a new exhibition of art-meets-technology advances scheduled to run through May 12 at the Museum of Modern Art in New York City. Morph is intended to demonstrate how nanotechnology might be used to make mobile devices stretchable, flexible, transparent, and easier to keep clean. CREDIT: Nokia

Electron captured by scientists

Scientists from Swedish Univeristy of Lund have filmed an electron in motion for the first time, using a new technique that will allow researchers to study the tiny particle's movements directly.



Extremely short flashes of light are necessary to capture an electron in motion. A technology developed within the last few years can generate short pulses of intense laser light, called attosecond pulses, to get the job done.

And here's the photograph of an electron:

Polaroid is back to rule the world

Small, fast, useful and pretty easy to use - those are the best words to describe the new Mobile Photo Printer, made by Polaroid.



The digital printer has two uncommon features:

- ZINK technology, which means there is no ink involved in the printing process
- bluetooth and USB as the easy way to connect other devices and print stuff

The best use for the bluetooth (wireless) connection is to use it with a cellphone. After pressing a couple of buttons, and waiting approximately 60 seconds, the printing should be done on a 2” x 3” paper. Sadly, there is no information about the price or release date. CREDIT: Gadgetizer.com

Atlas Kinetic Phone: charge by movement, not batteries

Recharging your phone is not a problem anymore. The Atlas Kinetic Phone uses the daily movement of a cellular phone to generate electricity. All work does central sapphire glass as the generating and charging unit. Besides, it's stylish and elegant.



The central power unit transforms movement into electricity and supplies power to all phone electronic components. If power runs low or out because the phone was sitting still for too long, simply give it a few shakes upside down to get the kinetic rotors going again. In addition to conserving electrical energy, the concept phone designer Ricardo Baiao aims to provide a greener phone with a long life cycle. Atlas Kinetic is all made of aluminium, case and buttons, giving it a higher resistance and durability than most current phones. SOURCE: trendhunter.com

Talk to your glove

Glove manufacturer Swany, a Research and experimental development company from Germany presented G-CELL™, a glove with integrated Bluetooth cellphone link.



This revolutionary glove has a microphone and speaker integrated as well as the call and end button, a light to give visual indication of an incoming call and a vibration function to alert you of a caller. The cost of this high tech G-CELL™ gloves is not known at this moment. Credit: talk2myshirt.com

Shape & re-shape your mouse

Hey! Here comes another cool gadget! It's a Moldable Mouse! Do you agree that even the most advanced “ergonomically designed” mouses do not fit the preferences of every user? Moldable Mouse eliminates this problem with its unique design.




It is made of non-toxic lightweight modelling clay, covered with nylon and polyurethane blend fabric. It can be kneaded into any shape the user prefers, and the shape is self-retaining. The click buttons and touch-sensitive scroll pad of the mouse are stick-on parts with built-in RFID (Radio Frequency Identification Device), which can be repositioned for maximum comfort. The nylon and polyurethane blend fabric covering comes in a variety of colours. The texture of the material feels similar to silk, but is much more flexible.

This invention has already won "Red Dot Award: Design Concept 2007".

The Mind Chair

This unique chair is the creation of Londoners Peter Marigold and Beta Tank. It uses the 1960s technology to send and display high-definition moving imagery into the mind of the person who sits in it. As for the design it's a standard plastic chair with a special electronic device attached to the back of it.




So what can it be used for how do you think?
