Bluetooth Tooth is Painted Black

Yeah! A Black coloured Bluetooth transmitter. This is about a tiny Bluetooth transmitter that fits in your tooth. This could be the creepiest of all Bluetooth headsets in the town. Why?
Dental Insert Microphone
It goes into your mouth and sits on your tooth. To get it working what you have to do is stick it into a small crevice in your tooth like a filling. It bears no battery and is powered by even smaller solar panel. How it works?

It picks up the vibrations in your teeth and transmits. That is indeed a brilliant way to catch what you say. But who will like to have a small thing sticking in your mouth. Often toothpicks may put some trouble as well.

Now it is 4 Gadgets Breathing for a Life in Your Car

Yuck! I don’t wish to think about it again. My last presentation went bad as my gadgets were down on battery. I wish if I had got to know about this 4-port USB car charger before. Wondering how could it have helped me?
4 Port USB Car Charger.
With this USB car charger you can charge upto 4 gadgets at the same time. This would really save a lot of our time. Just plug it into your cigarette adapter. And Now you’ve got four USB ports for recharging any gadget.

It costs just $12 and is very cheap compared to the loss that I had with my presentation.

3D Printer can Clone your iPhone

Cool! Isnt it? Surely this is going to be the future. 3D printing or rapid prototyping can transform a blue print on your computer to a real object. Sounds impossible? Not anymore.
3D Printer Can Create Real Objects
This technology creates a real object by building up a succession of layers. The raw materials are bonded together by fusing it with laser or by using alternate layers of glue. Doesn’t the technology sound to be new?

Actually it dates back to mid 90s. And the futurists then even predicted that it could be a common stuff found in every home. Not yet until its price fall down to $500. Presently they find use in industry to develop parts for devices such as aircraft engines, spaceships and hearing aids.

The analysts now even predict that this rapid prototyping technology could be grown up to create self replicating printers that can be redesigned with upgrades. Of course the new printer may not be able to assemble of its own but can produce all necessary parts except for the chips and lubricating grease.

This could be a breakthrough in technology since we will be able to make high end graphic cards and sound cards at home. What we have got to do will be torrent the CAD files of the same.

PS: This is not fiction, NASA scientists have already created a self replicating robot that could be used for space missions.

Natural Brushes

Get ready to do wonders with colour. Here is a digital brush with a natural palette! Yes with this you can pick the colour of your hair to make your digital paintings realistic. Or even the pattern of your tie to turn the background very artistic. But how?

I/o Brush Treats World as a Palette

I/O brush is the wonder boy. You can use the brush to pick up textures, colours and patterns from anything and then paint it onto a digital canvas. So how does it work?

The inside of brush has a camera, lights, touch sensitive optic strands. When the brush comes in contact with a surface, the optic strands sense it and lights up the bulb. Once the frame is clear the camera takes a snapshot and stores it in an internal memory. And you can retrieve it onto the digital canvas whenever you are ready to paint.

The I/O brush is now in its conceptual phase. Surely the artists of tomorrow can make real use of it.

Latest lcd

The future of e-readers are going to be colourful and bright. The start up called FirstPaper from Media giant Hearst Corp. are pouring in money and effort to make it happen. This may be with a colour version of energy sipping e-ink in Sony reader.

LG Philips FirstPaper E Reader

Reports say that this may be based in Linux. The team is speculating that it should be offering tough competition to the market rulers, Sony Reader, Amazon Kindle and Ectaco Jetbook. Surely the price factor also has to be counted seriously.

E-Paper

Who will not buy it if it is as flexible as newspaper and can turn pages by touching the screen? Ofcourse the wireless capabilities has to work well too to make things really happen.

Samsung Glyde


After seeing pictures of the Samsung Glyde, I believe that we have seen just about everything that can be done with cell phones. It appears that the new industry standard could be a touchscreen along with a QWERTY keyboard. Obviously some new iPhone-ish type of gadget has to come out in order to really revolutionize the mobile phone market any further.

Until then, there is the Glyde. The Glyde is surfing the present industry standard with its touchscreen and QWERTY keyboard. The Glyde, whose official name is the Samsung SCH-U940, has some other very interesting features. Not only does it have a GPS, but there is a full HTML browser as well as V CAST Muisc and Video.

Verizon Wireless makes Moto Q9c available


Verizon Wireless seems to be on a warpath here, having recently released the BlackBerry Curve 8330 earlier this week, only to follow up that move by announcing the availability of the Moto Q9c on its online store as well as all Verizon Wireless business sales channels from today (May 9) onwards. For those who have been lusting after this smartphone, you can pick it up from any Verizon Wireless Communications Stores, including those in Circuit City, within the coming weeks as shipments start to arrive. This smartphone targets business professionals and boasts some pretty powerful capabilities, including access to over 14 million points of interest thanks to Verizon Wireless’ very own popular VZ Navigator service. Other specifications can be found after the jump.
