Tethercell, control your batteries with Bluetooth

http://i.imgur.com/ndm8Jmn.jpg


The CES 2013 presented some interesting devices and technologies, and Tethercell is among them. This is a AAA battery adapter that has the shape of an AA battery and to control the use of energy through an interface and application that is installed on the mobile.

What might serve a battery controlled via Bluetooth? Well first of all to remotely control power to stack our devices, but also to block access to any toy or just be aware before the battery runs out.

Whether the device uses more than one battery, you just need to replace one of the adapter Tethercell and we will have ready access to energy and its uses through the smartphone application. It is especially useful if you want to control the use of a toy from our children. We just have to block energy and from a particular time may not return to play with the toy, a little harsh, but very effective to ensure that they go to bed without playing.
The easiest is to shut down devices remotely, but exhaustion notices are also useful because normally you realize that the batteries do not work more when it's too late, until then we say 'hold on a little more, buy new batteries tomorrow 'and when the day comes we forget.
Tethercell The draft is not yet confirmed officially, it is a collective financing device and developers are gathering money through IndieGoGo platform.
By late February the funding process is finished and the final amount of revenue should reach $ 59,000. Will they succeed? How do you like the idea of ​​this unique technology?

StickNFind, a Bluetooth sticker great for when you lose important things

 http://i.imgur.com/b1PiW.jpg

This is probably one of the best inventions of recent years. Probably we all have happened that we can not find our keys when we get out or we have lost something important that we urgently need. According to my grandmother, you have to put a glass upside down so that things appear, but I personally prefer to use a more modern method and not so superstitious.
I'm talking about StickNFind. What is StickNFind? It is a round sticker whose size is a bit larger than a fingernail and can be detected via Bluetooth. Simply place it in our keychain, necklace on our cat or any object not want to lose sight, to track the sticker then just use a smartphone or a tablet that has Bluetooth.
The StickNFind has its own batteries that need to be changed once a year or so.

Control objects with our mind insurance is something we have all longed to do. In Zhejiang University in China, was created a quadcopter that can be controlled by our thoughts. To accomplish this, the user must wear a kind of electroencephalograph and different thoughts ("right", "a little to the left", "extreme left", among others) may control the quadcopter. But that's not all, because the device can also take pictures every time we blink.
Known by the name of Buddy Fly 2, the system uses Bluetooth to connect the electroencephalograph with a laptop , which in turn connects to the quadcopter via WiFi. The project will be officially presented at Ubicomp 2012 from 5 to 8 September.

KOUZIRO FT103, a 21.5-inch Android tablet




Does anyone need a giant tablet with full HD, Android operating system and an over 21.5-inch screen? Surely no one needed one, but still has introduced the new Frontier FT103 KOUZIRO.
This great device, which is one of the world's largest tablet, runs Android 4.0 ICS and carries a TI OMAP 4428 processor dual-core 1GHz inside. Besides this, has 1GB of RAM and 8GB of internal memory, not to mention the bonus of a 1.2-megapixel camera also has a pair of ports USB 2.0 , microUSB and microHDMI.
To this we must add that the FT103 KOUZIRO has WiFi, Bluetooth and LAN, and weighing 5 kilograms. The price is about $ 440 dollars.
What is not yet closed me why a company strives to manufacture a tablet of similar proportions. The tablets are made ​​to be portable and powerful, but in this case we have a tablet that is not portable , which could lead a better processor and also weighs 5 kilograms. Obviously this will make it a desktop tablet, and the only ones who could give use are graphic designers and the like.
