TwoTwo Concept Vehicle
German designer Ramin Ansari released a concept for a vehicle that can transform from a two-seater to a four-seater at the press of a button. The TwoTwo car is a proposal for an electric vehicle that can extend itself, fitting for modern urban environments. It aims to create an innovative concept vehicle that is able to combine two operating modes to suit every passenger's needs.
The two-seater version measures 2.5 meters. It extends for just 600 millimeters, with the help of telescoping tubes, in order to reach its four-seater length. TwoTwo prototype vehicle runs on Lithium-Ion batteries coupled with 4-wheel hub engines, delivering an output of 100kW. According to Ansari, this vehicle could run for up to 250 kilometers after a full-battery charge of about 3.5 hours.
The hub engines that are integrated into each wheel incorporate the brakes, drivetrain, steering, and suspension of TwoTwo. The batteries are located along the car floor as well as in the external rear compartment.
The doors of this concept car operate different. The compact front doors pivot then move forwards, while the rear doors slide to open providing easy access to the cabin.
Ansari said that the design was inspired by leopards, with the front wheel appearing to "grab and pull the car forwards, symbolizing sportiness and movement." Meanwhile, he also draws inspiration from eagles as evident with TwoTwo's overhang on the windshield with integrated headlamps as well as the filigree tail lights that are styled as feathers. TwoTwo's large glass surfaces are complimented with a round sunroof that is contrast to the car's dynamic look.

Revolutionary Bike
The bike of the future may possibly be on hand. Well, as for now, maybe in concept. But here is something that might just revolutionize the way that you look at a ordinary bike. Call it cool, call it overboard, but it would be nice just to see something different in an area that innovation do not usually flourish.
Thanks to Reindy Allendra's unique look at an ordinary human powered transport, people will now think more highly of the lowly bicycle from now on. It is not saying that bikes were once thought of as lowly implements in the past. But when compared to the advances and developments that today's cars and even motorcycles go though, it can be said that the bicycle may have felt left out in some way.
Reindy Allendra's is a new concept of ordinary an bike. A certain design makeover won't harm the bike's appeal to a larger and more forward-thinking generation. And because lifestyles also change along with advancing age, it won't hurt adding a little bit of something to this revolutionary bike. How about integrating music listening to one?
With Allendra's bike concept, not only is the looks drastically changed, some functions are also added to give riders something to be interested in. This bike has its own docking station where a valuable everyday gadget such as a portable iPod can suitably fit in. In between the bike's handlebars, the iPod has its place where it can also be powered by the continuous movement of the wheel as the biker travels along a long bike road. Now who wouldn't want a future looking bike like that?

Everything works together to give you the detail of Full HD with the clarity and smooth motion that are the hallmarks of a truly cinematic experience."
The projector provides a really fast 2.5 response time and features a full screen panel alignment function, cutting down any colored bordering at the edges of objects. It also supports BRAVIA Theatre Sync, Deep Colour, x.v.Colour, and 24p True Cinema. It has two HDMI connectors. Sony BRAVIA VPL-HW10 HD SXRD Projector promises to offer great cinematic experience for a reasonable price of $3,000.
Sony's latest offering, the BRAVIA VPL-HW10 HD projector, features a triple-panel Sony Silicon X-tal Reflective Display (SXRD) technology.

Eco-friendly Dell Studio Hybrid PC
The Dell Studio Hybrid PC is an eco-friendly offering of the company for those who care for the environment. In more ways than one, it tries to contribute to the welfare of the Earth's environment in its own way.
For one, power usage of the Dell Studio Hybrid is 70 percent less than other standard desktop. With an 87 percent power supply efficiency, that can account to less power used. Less power used can be accounted to less use of fossil fuel to generate electricity. One Dell Studio Hybrid may not mean a lot in terms of preventing pollution caused by fossil fuel burning. But imagine how several of these eco-friendly PC's can work together to save up on power.
Another eco-friendly feature of the Studio Hybrid concerns its size. With its compact design which is 80 percent smaller that typical desktops, this can mean less manufactured parts used. The Dell Studio Hybrid also makes use of 75 percent less printed documentation by weight as compared to other desktops.
Packaging for the Studio Hybrid also makes use of 95 percent recyclable materials. This means less garbage and trash to pollute the environment, less trees to cut and a more concerned PC user looking after the welfare of our planet. And that's not yet considering the PC's capabilites.

Blusens Keia MP3 Player
The Blusens Keia mp3 player is purported by its manufacturer, Blusens Corporation to herald a new concept when it comes to portable mp3 players. It also is said to unveil the new look for the company. But does it have the features that can really turn heads when it comes to portable mp3 players?
Feature wise the Blusens Keia really does have something attractive to offer. Despite its highly compact and lightweight design at about a couple or so inches tall and weighing 19 grams, it packs quite a number of features that include an FM radio, clock, timer, audio recorder, and stopwatch aside from just a simple mp3 player. The Blusens Keia also features an OLED color display using an intuitive graphical user interface.
With the features packed inside such a compact and lightweight mp3 player such as the Blusens Keia, it is, in itself, quite an attraction. But the features that it offers is nothing new to any other mp3 player out there. In a market where lots of other portable mp3 players try to get some attention, having unique features would really mean a lot. But in the case of the Blusens Keia mp3 player, its compact size alone may not be unique enough to warrant more attention than any other portable mp3 player out there.

Titanic Watches
Forget the Heart of The Ocean pendant which good ol' Rose dropped into the ocean in the ending. Think watches made with bits and pieces of the doomed ship.
Swiss jeweler Romain Jerome has created timepieces from parts of the Titanic, thus the name of the collection - Titanic-DNA.
The watches cases are made from the Titanic's hull and mixed with modern shipbuilding steel. The coal from the ship's furnaces mixed with ceramics creates the dials or the faces for the watches. The tarnished, old metal and the new steel were blended at the Harland and Wolff shipyard in Belfast, Northern Ireland where the historical ship was built.
The watches hands are inspired by the ship's anchor and the tiny seconds dial is designed to look like the ship's pressure gauges on its boilers.
Titanic - DNA Pink Gold-Black
In this model, the case is made of satin-finished pink gold, titanium and blackened steel. The dial is integrated with coal from the ship. The claws are polished pink gold with titanium screws. Small seconds dial at 9 o'clock. It is 46 mm in diameter and can be set with or without trapeze-out diamonds. It was also created using La Joux-Perret watch movement.
Now doesn't that make you want to say "I want you to paint me wearing this..."?
According to MailOnline, the Titanic-DNA watches go for upwards of L75,000

Eton Porsche Designed Stereo System
Luxury brands have been expanding their clout during the recent years by incorporating their identity and trademarks on other products. You have seen style icon Prada presenting its mobile phone created by LG, or the tall caramel-flavored Pepsi soda cans formulated by Giorgio Armani. On this review, we will take a look at a stereo system designed by Porsche, a well-known manufacturer of high-end sports cars.
Together with Etón, Porsche develops a series of sound systems, the latest of which is a small-sized table top model called the P'9120. Like its former Porsche design models, the P'9120 has three speakers that protrude on the front and a subwoofer inside. It comes with an iPod dock and multi band radio system. Not only it can receive AM and FM, but also XM, Shortwave, and RDS. The iPod dock is complete with an OLED display and a remote control with a built-in torch.
You can see on the surface the amount of work done by the people of Porsche. The body is extruded from high quality aluminum with a double-wall construction for superior acoustics. The geometric acrylic block is seamlessly fused to the metal housing, while the speaker grills are painted black using rubberized paint for that unique texture, appearance, and durability. The P'9120 also comes with a sub port solution, ventilation system that ensures sufficient cooling, and even a 12/ 24 hour clock as well as a variety of accessories.
The P'9120 can be used in two ways: as your iPod's blasting speaking system, or as your light and convenient radio. The radio function also has 10 memory resets on every band so you do not have to struggle in switching to your favorite FM station, for instance.
As since this radio is designed by Porsche, expect the tag price to be a little too extravagant for some. The Porsche Design P'9120 is available at around $800, but you may avail of discounted prices.
