Palette for Digital Artists

Here is a design concept of handheld PC, which the digital artists preferably like to wear for their new creative designs. This beautiful Palette Digital Artist is an entry for the Microsoft's NextGen PC Design Competition for the year 2008.

This Palette is a handheld touch-screen PC with a thumbhole for the easy handling, also having a Stylus, which enables you to work digitally but like the good old days. This stylish design will give you that painterly feeling that is sorely lacking with conventional computers.

The connections for the Palette are all wireless, the design of this device also happens to have a DVD drive, which feels a bit odd on this shape screen, but in future who know what will be the ideal shape of a PC. Also thinking this shape makes sense for more than just painting.

Mooon+ Concept Phone

Here is a new concept phone designed by Sunman Kwon, beautiful isn’t it? This is not just some touchscreen cell phone but it has a very distinguished feature, there is an integrated detachable Bluetooth headset, which can be separated for use and when connected to phone it can get charge itself.

After all this seems to be a promising factor, because you don't have to think about charging your Bluetooth headset separately.

However, when on the run I personally feel that Bluetooth headset may consume a lot of energy through cell phone to keep itself charged. Who knows maybe they have a turnoff switch on it, oh it is a bad joke. So just, wait until this concept may come to reality.

Backpacer's Diary for travelers - Concept

This new concept PC by the Backpacker is quite good for the travelers to log and share their experiences. This electronic diary takes the idea of a notebook to the next level. Portable just as a laptop, the diary change its functions depending on which page you have it on. You have to turn to one section to find out Internet browsing, another for the media recordings, or just as simple for an illumination for a night light, it also has GPS for travelers to find out the way. This diary is of flexible and seems just like a book, one prettier thing is it has solar cells to get it charge while you are just moving.
Therefore, this concept device is for outdoor usage and it is good for bloggers to share their experiences.

Calculator powered by Water

Cellphones do well most of the calculation needs today, but there are still many people who prefers to work on a calculator whether scientific or just normal. There is a calculator, which is powered by water; actually, it uses water or any other electrolytic solvent for power. The solvent or liquid creates a chemical reaction in the fuel cell with zinc anode and cathode produces electrical current that can power this water calculator for a month. I hope to see this kind of some cool innovations in laptops and cell phones as well and who knows they might be working on it right now.
This water powered calculator costs $19.99, and it available through computer gear's website.

Measure electricity by a clip

If you are like me, and your electricity bills also reaching skies, then here is some gadget, which we call as "Saverclip". It is a concept from the designer Lee Young Don that may prove useful to anyone who is looking to control there electricity or power consumption. This device look very similar to a clothespin and it actually latches onto any kind of power cable to determine the energy usage by just measuring the electromagnetic fields emitted. It can even recharge itself by the same electromagnetic field.

There is a LCD panel, which can help us to determine that what the devices are responsible for the most power wastage. The design is quite simple and looks friendly, which could be a useful gadget, if it may ever come to the reality.

iriver's handwriting friendly e-book or tablet

Well iriver did not show this at the CES, but it is definitely a cool product. It looks like a combination of e-book and tablet PC with the capability to recognizing handwriting, and have a quite good color display. Well it seems really an interesting thing, because from the top it does not look like an e-book or a tablet, more like a normal notebook. Nowadays, iriver seems more like developing prototype or concept gadgets, and we never get to hear much about its last terminal e-book. Therefore, there is not enough information about this gadget but hope to hear about this more in the future.

RFID tags for concept clothes labels

A survey shows that 70% of people do not bother themselves reading labels on clothing. This in turn causes several problems with the clothing by damaging, color fading or merging, shrinking, etc, but with the RFID clothes tag concept you may never have to read the tags or bother yourself. With the help of a compatible washing machine, your RFID tagged clothes will automatically tell the machine how to clean it up, so you do not have to change washing machine settings. This concept idea also help you with your iron, dryer and presses, so that you never have to set the iron temperature, and the burning shirts will be the talk of classic movies.

I really do love this concept, just load you clothes in the washing machine, add detergent and just shut the lid. It may make us a little bit more careless but in return, it increases the cloths life.

3D printer from Thinglab

Well here is an amazing device, which can let you take print in 3D. This device can actually make your computer based 3D projects come to life. You can easily use this printer like any other inkjet printer as said by the Thinglab. It can print complex engineering projects, working concept models with upto 16 million colors and 700 dpi.

This is ideal for product design development, jewelry design, and architectural models. 3D printing is fast and cost effective as claimed by Thinglab. It does seem good if you are about to give a presentation then you can make a 3D model in just a few hours. One thing for sure, this device does not made for the home use, it is entirely for commercial and official works.

This device is available by the Thinglab and it costs around $40000. Therefore, it is definitely not for home use.
Here is a video explaining how it works.

USB Business Card

When meeting a client for first time all we need is a business card, but if you want to impress your client give him this electronic business card, call it as M++Cards. Its a memory card so you can store some information on it. You can store entire portfolio, PDF's, etc. It can be used as Business card, website card, product info card, etc. Means it will be a lot easier for you to deliver all the needed information to a client, but the only problem is that right now its only a concept. But hey its still sounds practical to have an electronic card. I hope to see this cool thing in near future.

It a Projector that can be easily connected to a laptop of a PC and can easily be replaced to suit your positioning. Also Stereo speakers set just beside the lens, i don't know how many people will gonna to like it, but its pretty good as projector is mostly near to viewers then the screen. One more thing is that all the units are connected with retractable cords, that means you don't have to worry about getting cords tangled, all this and only 3 dvds and 2 cds wide. So enjoy your favorite movies with your loved ones.
