| Boost A Bicycle With A Powered Ridekick Add-On Posted: 31 Dec 2011 08:30 AM PST It’s like a bicycle accessory for the lard asses lazy out there. If you’re too broke to buy a scooter and have to make do with a crummy bicycle, the Ridekick pretty much saves your day. It’s a mini-electric engine connected to your bike like a small trailer. Ideal for scaling slopes and other difficult terrain, the Ridekick saves a person the hassle of converting their bikes with a motor. The Ridekick allegedly does well when cruising an empty highway with Kenny Loggins’ “Danger Zone” blasting out the rider’s iPod.

| Thermosensitive Pillow Gushes All Sorts Of Colors Posted: 31 Dec 2011 08:00 AM PST So yeah, you’ve got this pillow and it’s soft and comfy. But wait, that’s not all! See those hand prints? The catch is the Thermosensitive Pillow is…thermosensitive, which means your body heat ‘reflects’ on the surface. Would’ve been cooler if the pillow could also warm you amid the winter chill. Also, there’s a catch to its colorful feature.

| Fake It Till You Make It: The StarScreen Social Backdrop Posted: 31 Dec 2011 07:00 AM PST Nothing suggest/implies/screams ‘fake!’ better than a crummy technicolor backdrop on a nylon screen. This is barely high-tech but is awkward enough to merit some contrived measure of acclaim. If you haven’t figured out what it does, the StarScreen is a prop for your teleconferencing and Skype sessions–a ‘vivid’ background to lend an utterly false sense of where you’re at. Thus, have a white sand beach in place behind you rather than the dirty garage you actually live in. For example, of course.

| Scanadu Tricorder Is Supposed To Be A Health Scanner For Kids (Video) Posted: 31 Dec 2011 04:03 AM PST ‘Supposed’ because at this point it’s little more than a concept, though its function is pretty straightforward. It’s a tool for assessing a subject’s health, armed with the kind of software whose read out would render a trip to the doctor pointless. The gadget is from the year old startup of the same name headed by Walter de Brouwer. Based in California, Scanadu is aiming for a 2012 release for households, where parents can use it to look after their kids.

| Vintage Blade Runner Concept Sketches Made Public Posted: 31 Dec 2011 02:35 AM PST Warning: They will blow your mind. If you think Syd Mead is the most badass concept artist to ever consult for Hollywood productions, get a load of Ridley Scott’s own contributions (plus a few others). Mr. Scott of Alien and Gladiator fame is legend for his detailed storyboarding. In fact, he’s right up there with James Cameron when it comes to mad drawing skills. Not kidding—the spaceships on Aliens and the nude sketch of Kate Winslet on Titanic? James Cameron’s work. No wonder both directors have a proclivity for epic films. Though Mr. Scott’s oeuvre is a bit more eclectic.

| Monstrous gAtari Does Sweet, Sweet Music (Video) Posted: 31 Dec 2011 02:24 AM PST Turns out there was a music festival in Japan recently and one of the participants is this dude named cTrix, who performed with his gAtari. That’s him pictured below wielding the beast. Take note of his facial expression–it’s a mix of awe and wonder as he grasps the mighty…thing in his feeble hands. It’s a heavily modded (emphasis on ‘heavily’) Atari console impregnated with effects pedals and other devices. The resulting instrument can reduce the unworthy to cinders via its sheer musical/visceral mind-exploding aural madness.

Marking your workout’s progress can be quite a chore, but then again, I supposed if you have the discipline to work out each day without having to drag yourself out of bed, keeping track of your health record should not be too hard to do. The 
Having a (positive) superlative describing your product is definitely something that most, if not all, hardware manufacturers would love to experience. LG Electronics steps up to the plate, full of confidence, that their 3D Ultra Definition (UD) TV is the largest in the world. Of course, you can tell by the name alone that Ultra Definition is far better than High Definition, so I cannot wait to see just what kind of images my eyes will be greeted with at CES 2012 that is happening in less than a fortnight’s time in Las Vegas.
