Daizi Zheng’s green cellphone concept has a biobattery that uses enzymes from carbohydrates in drinks like Coke or Pepsi to generate electricity; it also has a biodegradable handset.

This is a client project aimed at designing an eco-friendly phone for Nokia. As a result of my research, I discovered that conventional phone batteries are: expensive, harmful to the environment and difficult to dispose of. In addition, the conventional battery manufacturing process consumes many valuable resources. The concept is based on the idea to create a pollution free environment by using bio-batteries as an alternative to conventional batteries. A bio-battery is an ecologically friendly, energy supply system which uses enzymes as a catalyst to generate electricity from carbohydrates (currently sugar). In order to use the bio-battery as a power source for the phone all that is required is a small supply of a sugary drink. Once the battery dies only oxygen and water remains. Bio-batteries are fully biodegradable and have, on a single charge, a potential life-span three to four times longer than conventional lithium batteries. Meanwhile, bio-batteries are a whole new way of looking at batteries and afternoon tea. -Link

iPad turned Arcade Gaming Machine

Its been a pretty slow Friday so I decided to post something from the CES 2011..............(courtesy of intomobile.com)

Making its debut at the 2011 Consumer Electronics Show this past week was the iCADE miniature arcade game controller for iPad. Check it out. The old-school joystick, large buttons and arcade cabinet make this a must-have iPad accessory for the retro-gamer. The cabinet opens from the top, allowing you to slide your iPad into it in portrait or landscape. All controls connect via Bluetooth, and yes, while this is surely a novelty, it’s one I could see tucked-away in my office for use from time to time.
The folks at ION Audio have outdone themselves on this one, as it fits the iPad beautifully, and works pretty darn well to boot. To check it out in action, hit play on the video above.
Look for the iCADE to become available at some point this spring for $99.

Sega’s New Pee-Operated Video Games

Could it get any weirder. Sega wants men to have fun when they are urinating in public. Is it just me or is it an attempt to catch your attention while you pee. Are we that ADD that we can't concentrate long enough to use the restroom. Here is some info.....................

Sega is venturing into the urinals of Japan with their new bathroom-based gaming consoles called Toylets. The consoles, which will be free to play, will feature a variety of games which range from the benign to the truly weird. The controller in all of the games is the user’s stream of urine.

A pressure-sensitive plate is embedded in each urinal to detect the length and strength of each player’s pee supply. The stream becomes an integral part of the game: in one, the on-screen play simply measures the player’s output. In another, the stream acts as a pressure washer to scrub graffiti from walls. A game called The North Wind and Her is a little more misogynistic, using a strong stream of urine as the north wind which is trying its best to blow a girl’s skirt up. Milk From Nose compares the strength of a user’s urine stream with the previous player’s: two sumo wrestlers try to push each other out of the ring using milk they blow out of their noses. The stronger you can pee, the stronger the milk stream from your character’s nose will be.

Players who earn particularly boast-worthy scores can insert a USB stick into the console to download the data and later show off to friends. The game screen can also be used to display advertisements either before or after the game. While we’re highly disturbed by the prospect of a touch screen anything in a bathroom, we’re guessing that giving men something to aim for in the urinals will result in much, much cleaner public toilets.

Here are a few games.................

• Manneken Pis, in which the pressure of the stream is directly translated to how much liquid was urinated.
• Graffiti Eraser, where graffiti on a wall is removed with a hose. The stronger the pressure of your urine, the faster the wall becomes pristine.
• The North Wind and Her, in which a horny north wind tries to blow a dress off a girl. The stronger the pressure of your urine, the harder it blows.
• Milk from Nose, a faux-sumo game in which two characters blow milk out of their noses to push the other out of the ring. The stronger pressure between you and the person that used that urinal before you wins. Yes, it’s a multiplayer game – albeit non-realtime.

Iphone4 on Verizon Feb 10th

Its about time............


On Feb. 3, existing Verizon customers can preorder the iPhone 4 ahead of general availability. Everyone will be able to buy the phone on Feb. 10.
The price is $199.99 for 16 gigabytes of storage, $299.99 for 32 gigabytes -- the same as on AT&T... but plus 99 cents?

Domino Clock

This is pretty dope.....

Carbon Designs’ playful concept involves three over-sized ceramic dominoes – one for the hour, two for the minutes – with the dots changing from black to white to tell the time. More info
