  • Mask Of Emotions

    June 12th, 2008 Exene Posted in design, gadgets No Comments »

    emoticon_mask.jpg

    Cute Idea but I rather show my real face.

    The “Mask of Emotion”, a project from the Digital Media Design Dept at Hongik University in Korea, trades facial expressions for LED emoticons. The default setting is no expression, but if people shake hands with the wearer, the mask smiles. The project was designed to hide personal emotions by eliciting a different set of public facial expressions that could be used to generate conversation and response in public spaces. via electro^plankton

    My brother seriously needs a navigational system and this one would be really cute. Made by iXs

    The robot bear is also equipped with functions to improve auto safety, such as an alcohol detection sensor embedded in its neck. If it smells booze, the robot confronts the driver, saying, “You haven’t been drinking, have you?” Other sensors detect reckless driving, so if the driver suddenly accelerates or slams on the brakes, the robot says, “Watch out!” via pink tentacle

    minidigiaf_topimg_assist_custom.jpg

    Cute digital camera design that looks like vintage Rolleiflex.

    The original Rolleiflex twin-lens 6×6 camera was a photographer’s dream come true when it was first introduced in 1929, and Rollei still makes a similar camera today. Leave it to Japan’s Komomura Corp., however, to pay tribute to the Rollei 6×6 by creating a 5 megapixel mini digital version that takes the concept of “retro cute” to a new plateau. via inventorspot

    Interesting Nokia phone design that can bend and morph to suit the users preference. It even has the ability to clean itself. It won’t be out for at least seven years but the concept looks cool. via slipperybrick
