Speculative Fiction Friday: Wreck It Ralph. Why doesn’t PIXAR do films like this anymore?

March 8, 2013 By Techno_Mark Leave a Comment

PIXAR was cool. I'm sure that you have noted my use of the word was. In my opinion, PIXAR doesn't have it anymore. For almost two decades, they made some of the most original animated films like Toy Story, A Bug's Life, The Incredibles, WALL-E, but they peaked with Up. Since then, they have had very successful sequels with Toy Story 3 and Cars 2, but nothing original. … [Read more...] about Speculative Fiction Friday: Wreck It Ralph.

Tailly robotic tail extension

March 8, 2013 By Techno_Mark Leave a Comment

Some of you might recall when I reviewed the Necomimi cat ears, the cute ears that react to your mental state. The designer of this ears, Shota Ishiwatari, has created the Tailly, the next logical step. After all, the cat lady is a staple in cosplay and anime, so why not create a tail that can measure their heart rate and then wag when happy? Yes, I always like seeing a … [Read more...] about Tailly robotic tail extension

Otterbox Armor Series for the iPhone 5

March 7, 2013 By Techno_Mark Leave a Comment

I think we all know that that Otterbox is the Number One most trusted in smartphone case protection. If you didn't know that, just read the banner on the packaging for the iPhone 5 version. Sure, I had a chance to look at the Armor Series for the iPhone 4, and I will have to admit that the one for the iPhone 5 has essentially the same features. It has those metal … [Read more...] about Otterbox Armor Series for the iPhone 5

Nokia Wireless Charging Pillow by Fatboy

March 7, 2013 By Techno_Mark Leave a Comment

I have seen a lot of wireless chargers before, and they usually follow the model of the Powermat or the BuQu Magnetyze. You know, you lay down your mobile device on it, and it charges thanks to Qi compliance. If you aren't familiar with Qi compliance, it is precisely what I described above, and Nokia's Wireless Charging Pillow by Fatboy has that too. The thing that makes … [Read more...] about Nokia Wireless Charging Pillow by Fatboy

The Bat, a new levitating mouse

March 7, 2013 By Techno_Mark Leave a Comment

As far as I know, there were no special effects used in this photo of the Bat. Yes, this mouse is called the Bat, which is the best name you can give to a flying mouse, right? So why in the world would one create a hovering or levitating mouse? It has nothing to do with interacting with 3-D graphics, but I personally think that is a good idea. The Bat, by Kibardin … [Read more...] about The Bat, a new levitating mouse

Organic Transit unveils the ELF solar/pedal hybrid vehicle

March 6, 2013 By Techno_Mark Leave a Comment

What you are seeing here is the ELF. I am not certain what that stands for, but it is a very interesting innovative solar/pedal hybrid vehicle. The ELF has solar panels on the rooftop, and you can also charge the battery by plugging it into the wall. Not only can you pedal it around, but there is enough room in the back for groceries or other things that you want to … [Read more...] about Organic Transit unveils the ELF solar/pedal hybrid vehicle

Two new developments in smartphone tech could change the world

March 6, 2013 By Techno_Mark Leave a Comment

I think that we all know that the touchscreen has ruled the smartphone for the past few years, but what if there were other methods of control? I just learned of two technologies that could change that game. A patent granted to Apple today by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office states that a housing is under development that will allow control of a smartphone with a … [Read more...] about Two new developments in smartphone tech could change the world

PoolLiveAid uses AR for shots

March 6, 2013 By Techno_Mark Leave a Comment

For those who need help setting up that perfect shot at billiards, you might want to look into the PoolLiveAid. This particular device allows the user to set up a shot thanks to a ceiling mounted camera, and it figures out what angle your shot will be thanks to a calculation that takes into account the player's position, pool cue, table, and the balls. Granted, you … [Read more...] about PoolLiveAid uses AR for shots

ChargeCard can charge your device and fit in your wallet, too

March 5, 2013 By Techno_Mark Leave a Comment

One of the biggest problems with carrying around a mobile device is carrying around a charging cord that isn't so portable. There is now a specially made charging cord from BiteMyApple known as the ChargeCard which is very easy to have on hand. The ChargeCard is one of those devices that I wish I had thought of before. The Chargecard is about as thick as a two credit … [Read more...] about ChargeCard can charge your device and fit in your wallet, too

Virtuix Omni makes you walk while you play your games

March 5, 2013 By Techno_Mark Leave a Comment

I think we all know that there is or sadly was a movement amongst console games to get gamers off the couch. Games like WiiSports, WiiFit, and others for the Wii and Playstation Move forced players to be active, but I don't really see that much. Games like Halo 4 and other FPS games still encourage sitting down play, and standing actually messes me up. I have to admit that I … [Read more...] about Virtuix Omni makes you walk while you play your games

Fraunhofer Institute’s Key2Share

March 5, 2013 By Techno_Mark Leave a Comment

Picture yourself in this situation, you ask someone to take care of your place, but forget to give them the key. I suppose you could mail or FedEx the key to them, or you could send the key via email. I'm not talking about some new technology where you can instantaneously transport matter via email. That would change everything. I am also not talking about 3D printing, … [Read more...] about Fraunhofer Institute’s Key2Share

New Tablet Camera creates an Invisible Keyboard

March 4, 2013 By Techno_Mark Leave a Comment

Considering how small our computers are now, I can't help but wonder how long it will before it is a screen, keyboard, and a mouse. Well, if this new technology is a sign, it might not be too long before the keyboard is eliminated altogether. Thanks to this special camera made for tablets, it can track your finger movements so you can type on an invisible keyboard. I … [Read more...] about New Tablet Camera creates an Invisible Keyboard

Mio Alpha BLE heartbeat watch

March 4, 2013 By Techno_Mark Leave a Comment

This next product is designed for the athletes, and all else who care about their heartrate. This is the Mio Alpha BLE, and it is a watch with a continuous heart rate display, which two light beams that detect the heart rate. I actually believe that there are a lot of watches that can do that, but what is different about the Mio Alpha is that the user can set heart rate … [Read more...] about Mio Alpha BLE heartbeat watch

Polaroid planning to make the Socialmatic camera, made for Instagram addicts

March 4, 2013 By Techno_Mark Leave a Comment

I think we all know how influential Instagram is in our socially-connected society, and it is only reasonable that there be consumer electronics devoted to it. Some of you may remember when I discussed Socialmatic's Instagram camera, and it would appear that Polaroid adopted this gadget, planning to released under the name "Polaroid Socialmatic Camera". What you are … [Read more...] about Polaroid planning to make the Socialmatic camera, made for Instagram addicts

Soccket Energy-absorbing Soccer Ball

March 4, 2013 By Techno_Mark Leave a Comment

I think we all know that there are still places in the world that have no access to the easy electronics that we take for granted. Every time there is a blackout, I can't help but wonder how people leave without electrical light. There is a new Kickstarter project known as Soccket that is designed to work as a ball and a light at the same time. The ball is designed for … [Read more...] about Soccket Energy-absorbing Soccer Ball
