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.

Shinshoku’s watch give a new dimension to Time
By Andrew | February 8, 2008
Check this out. No it’s not a funky-chunky bracelet to adorn your wrist but one of its kind wrist watch from Shinshoku.
This designer wonder made in solid steel looks like a band that wraps comfortably around your wrist. As far as the guessing game of time is concerned, that’s also no less unique in Shinshoku’s.
The matrix of the punched out holes that you see on the face of the band are fitted with twenty-nine super-bright LEDs under the surface of the watch that glow to tell time.
Pressing the button at the top starts an animated movement of lights on the watch, while once you press the lower button the animation stops and time is displayed.
Twelve red LEDs indicate the hour; three green LEDs indicate 15, 30 and 45 minutes past the hour; and fourteen yellow LEDs indicate single minutes.
Joe says that the unique time telling method is easy but I think it’s quite of a thinking task…may b once you are used to the watch the visuals become easy for you.
One thing that’s actually helpful is that even during the wee hours getting the time won’t be tough now as it is with other watches.
Shinshoku is available in two models, black strap with multicolored LEDs and clear strap with multicolored LEDs.
The strap is self adjustable, so you don’t have to worry about the size, and there’s no info of pricing as yet.
