Farago Aircool: Deodorant suit for sweat-y professionals

By Cheryl | August 12, 2008

Business professionals and the people who get in close proximity to them must be well aware of that eerie and dirty smell of sweat that comes common to them, thanks to the thick business suit that they don 24 X 7 irrespective of the temperature and humidity levels.If you too are a victim of one such stinking boss, gift him the all new Farago Aircool suit from Aoki.
What’s so special about the Japanese suit is the fact that it emits deodarant to keep your boss smelling good and cool always. The Farago Aircool suit is lined with a deodorant antibacterial silver ion lining that not just absorbs smell but also stifles smell.

I guess it’s a perfect match to that air conditioned shirt that we showcased a few days back. As far as the price of the Farago Aircool suit is concerned, this good smelling suit comes with a price tag that most of us won’t find good enough. It reads $370 on sale.

Calling women: No-Contact Jacket is here at your guard!

By Andrew | May 28, 2008

Adding a new dimension to women’s self defense mechanism comes the No-Contact Jacket to keep you protected.

Once you wear itand activate it, 80,000 volts of low amperage electric current starts flowing just below the surface shell of the entire jacket which keeps any kind of unauthorized contact away from you as the moment someone touches you cannot escape the shock. The current would cause disorientation and loss of balance to occur and of course
The racing current is visible in the picture in form of little blue things near the neck. is actually arcing current. A great gift for your sisters and girlfriends and of course for your own self if you are a woman.
There’s no update on the pricing and availability though you can keep watching this space for the same.

BacVac Concept by Continuum

By Andrew | May 15, 2008

I really cherish the advent of evolving concepts that vouches for its possible functionality. Readers, customers, retailers enjoy going through such stuff that makes them familiar with the futuristic patterns thereby governing the hi-tech style era. And the latest in the news is a cool-tool vacuum maker called “the BakVac” from Continuum

It helps you do away with your old exercise of dragging moving parts that helps you clean dust by positioning them at your back like a turtle. Quite sensible! This thought of adding an inch extra of comfort level can be factored by its electric motor powered by a fuel cell, keeping those pesky electrical cables from tripping you up.

It may take some time to be functional enough as its dependence upon fuel cell technology is not cheap enough in juxtaposition to other wild designs available today.

Not to mention, it is a convincing concept. All you need to do is to pour a little ethanol into the BakVac that transforms liquid into hydrogen thorough the wonders of chemistry, firing up a fuel cell. Huhhh, it doesn’t require any battery.

Marilyn Light Bag with LED lights and GPS tracking

By Andrew | May 12, 2008

If you think your bag is just a dumping sack for your belongings and will always remain the same, then you have all the reasons to thing again. I’m saying this because the bag that you are going to see next is an exceptional combo of utility, fine design and unmatched technology.

The Marilyn Light Bag is far more than just another riveted blue jeans like hand bag. Inside, it comes loaded with a great deal of technology at your rescue whenever you need and wherever you need. It features chic LED lights (that can be chosen from seven wild colours) to brighten up the interior whenever you need to hunt out something.

Now, the Marilyn bag takes the bag technology to the next level of innovation after the solar bag and the music player bag by making this bag GPS enabled to help you keep a track of your belongings so that you neither they get lost or stolen.

This is not where the bag story ends, there’s more to it! You will find a button inside the bag, which works as a panic button that can be pressed whenever you are in some kind of trouble and police help will be available to you, thanks to the GPS-enabled transmitter alerting them to your exact position.

Styles are many and designs are numerous, and the price range starts from $30, which includes the first two months of the GPS rescue/tracking service free.

The Lady Bag: Treat for the forgetful minds

By Andrew | March 25, 2008

If you are a loser, you’ll love this! Don’t get offended, I mean if you are used to dropping your wallet or forgetting your cell phone or keys for that matter, we have got a great help for you.
I don’t think I need to tell you its all bout RFID, coz they are fitting the technology into almost anything. So, in the same vein the reference here is to the LadyBag. Designed by designed by six SFU students (all women, after all a woman can empathies with what other woman feels after dropping the wallet ;)), this unique bag is fitted with an RFID reader and a little LED display to blink at you in different ways whenever it doesn’t find your wallet, keys, cell phone or any other belonging inside the bag.

I guess not just this, the technology should be made a must-have for each and every bag…I consider as an object of national need …kidding!
This is not where the LadyBag story ends. To add into the fun element, the Bag is also capable of displaying it’s emotions, thanks to the LEDs. He’ll give you a cute smiley the moment you ‘squeeze’ it, while some fiddling with the ‘zipper’ ad it gets nervous as if thinking of a thief opening the bag. What more? It also displays a warm heart, how? I don’t have any clue, just get hold of the bag and find out yourself.
