The technological research offers every week new inventions that can make our lives easier, including engineers who work for large companies and young people looking for funding on crowdfunding platforms. Here is the news announced in recent days.
1) The directional speaker
The use of loudspeakers in areas frequented by other people or in an area provided with too thin walls is often a problem, and in fact the music lovers are accustomed to enjoy their songs in the silence of more and more comfortable and performing headphones.
the solution used by Akoustic Arts but could be revolutionary. It is in fact composed of many small devices able to use an ultrasonic and send the audio frequency technology in a very thin directional channel. The end result is that only those who will be in a certain point of the room will be able to hear what is being transmitted, and anyone else not hear anything.
The project on Indiegogo is a real success, and by 30 thousand dollars required developers have come to gather more than 160 thousand. The price is not the most content, but considered the idea and totally innovative running, the $ 350 required for the base model are not even so excessive. The first deliveries should arrive in September 2016 and so we will have the chance to experience first hand the potential of this device.
2) Samsung ready to launch the windshield smart
the smartphone is an object that has definitely changed our lives and has become essential for some in certain situations, such as in a car or motorcycle, where those very uses it travels as a navigator. The main problem is that the sources of distraction for those who are driving are really a lot, especially for those traveling on two wheels, and certainly can not afford to interact with your phone, but put at risk their balance and their safety .
Samsung has therefore announced a smart glass, using especially on motorcycles, able to show in front of the driver all the information he needs, without forcing him to use his hands. The idea is not completely new but it seems that the Korean company has burned all the time and the conditions are excellent. The smartphone will work with a kind of projector, thanks to specific app, just bring the necessary information such as navigation instructions or notifications, but excluding very demanding activities to keep safe driving.
3) the by selfie stick that is suspended in the air
social networks are flooded with self-portraits that come from all over the world and it seems that now the only way to tell their lives and their experience is that having their photo taken in the foreground, the background showing monuments or landscapes. This trend has also created a new market, that of sticks selfies, now sold in any store, real or virtual, and can satisfy anyone’s taste, from simple media to genuine colored toys.
fans of these photographs, however, are well aware that often not even a stick can ensure the right distance and the right stability when shooting, so it can happen to fail to have the desired effect. ROAM comes to their rescue-and-a selfie drone that can remain suspended in the air and take pictures from any position. The IoT Group who created this device described it as a drone that looks like a bottle of water. It features a 5-megapixel camera and facial recognition technology, the batteries last about 20 minutes. The price is for the true fanatics of selfies: $ 350.
4) Moleskine digitizes your notes
Everyone knows the Moleskine, one of the most famous of brands agendas, notebooks and travel guides, that despite the advent of computers, tablets and smartphones can survive with good results in an almost prohibitive market.
the company’s ability to renew itself it is the great secret to avoid being overwhelmed by the evolution that happens naturally over the years, so its engineers have created a perfect device for modern times. Smart Writing in September proposed by Moleskine is designed to bring all of our notes on paper directly to a digital device, in order to then be more easily viewed or used on any other device.
It consists of a sort of smart pen that records the movements and transmits them to a notebook, called Paper Tablet, as big as the biggest of Moleskine notebooks. The App for iOS and Android are even able to capture notes written in midair or record them only to be transmitted at a later time to the notebook to be digitized. The cost is $ 199, not within the reach of all but very much in line with other similar products in recent months.
5) The final air purifier
The air that circulates in our homes is never perfectly clean. Dust, pollen, smog coming through windows, cigarette smoke are just some of the impurities that we are forced to breathe every day. There are several air purifiers on the market for home use, but these are mainly methods that work in half and is particularly concerned to cover odors.
The Pure Cool Links, however, is the first device that promises to completely purify the air in our homes. Its mechanism is similar to professional vacuum cleaners and is able to capture 99.95 percent of impurities that are found in the home, including dust, odors, chemical residues, pollen, spores, smoke and anything else that is more wide by 0.1 microns. The time required for a complete cleaning of 30 to 60 minutes but you can also just keep it on standby and program it to activate when the air exceeds certain levels of impurities.
Hugo Wilson, creator of the Pure Cool Link, said: “the modern houses are built to isolate ourselves from the noise and retain heat, this means that the impurities that we create inside the house are trapped, and for this there are five times the impurities that are outside ». The basic model costs £ 350 but there is also a more powerful model, used in offices, which costs 450 pounds.
