Suitcase - Anti Staircase

Filling your stuffs in backpack may be tiring sometimes because your shoulder receive all the impact of the weight. Thanks to the gravity ~ While traveling, the problem gets worst since we need to carry lots of cloths and stuffs.

A way to solve the problem is to use a suitcase with roller wheels. It is convenient for travelers, yet it has its weaknesses. It gets stuck when you are lugging up the staircase. You can't lug the suitcase up the staircase but forced to carry it with your both hands.

Human is intelligent, Woo Moonhyung , he did some little trick with his wisdom and then invented a new roller suitcase - Climbing UP Suitcase , so you can simply lug it up even staircase.




Climbing UP Suitcase



It has a clean design


Honestly, I don't understand what's the indication of this picture




Here's how it works, pretty brilliant !
Just a simple trick, magic comes ~


Please do not hesitate to share with me if you do have some invention or idea to tell.

Emoticon addict

Dare you tell me you are not using any messenger? Probably yes, but most of people now do have a or few messenger accounts such as MSN, Yahoo messenger etc... During chatting with other, some love to add in emoticon to express yourself, although most of the time is a fake emotion :)

Personally, I don't enjoy chatting with people who use emoticon on alphabet. The cartoon or whatever pops up everything between the words, that's totally annoying and troublesome to read.

Anyway, if you can't live without using emoticon, this is the one for you !





Bajca



It comes with 16 emoticon a set



Just plug in your USB cable, you can start emoticon-ing !


This should be more than enough for emoticon-addicts..

Another cute version, will it come out exactly same as above in messenger?

When you are bored with it, pick it out


then wear it on your hand ! I will never do that...



Emoticon-addicts, watch out your emoticon, don't use it between alphabet ~
So much appreciate ^^

Lightdrops Umbrella

Walking alone at night is dangerous, especially rainy night. People can hardly notice you at night, some more if you are wearing dark-colored-shirt and a black umbrella..

Isn't it creepy? We need to lighten up ourselves, in case of being bang by stupid drivers. So, you need an umbrella for the rain, and torchlight for the light. That's not a practical way to lighten yourselves. Now, we have a solution , the Lightdrops Umbrella , an umbrella designed by Sang-Kyun Park !

This is an ordinary looking umbrella which carries an intelligent membrane converting the energy from falling raindrops to the LED light, the heavier the rain is, the brighter the LED shines...Very smart invention !





LightDrops Umbrella



They finally see you...You are safe from road accident, hopefully




When the rain is lighter...




It gets brighter when the rain is heavy ~

Christmas gift - Warm your love one

Counting down to Christmas, few days left. Still looking for Christmas present for your girl friend and totally no idea with it? Thanko Japan releases new cute USB warming glove that girls may like it, but maybe not in Asia?

Why say so? It is a USB warming glove that's design for people who spend lots of time using the computer in a freezing country. The gloves has built-in heat generator which is powered by USB connection and it is in shape of bear.

This is definitely not a good preference as a Christmas gift unless it is a "USB cooling glove"...




USB warming glove


It is adorable, as a glove...



Will you girl friend look like this if she is wearing it during the burning weather?


It makes sure the glove won't slip away



Their true faces !


Thinking of buying it? Hmm...As a decoration, maybe

Tang tang~ Today we have a gadget ( Progressive International Tower Slicer ) for dummies who can't slice a potato well. Maybe you want to have some slices of oranges which are in perfect shape before your mother-in-law reaching your house, this is your right choice. It is convenient, safe and fast to cut any fruit or vegetable that can fit in the "bottle". The external cover of the bottle is to trap the juice from spreading out.

It costs ~$15 for one. I may consider one if it is ~RM15...



Here is the instruction

Take out the cover and get your fruits ready


Here we have some lemon slices.


Lastly, we have the cucumbers ~ It is too thick to be your facial mask : )

Kick and goooooooal

SamePaperPlayAgain, is a creation by Clement Eloy. Creator of "Hotdoll : sex doll for dogs". He doesn't not create a dogporn this time. Instead, he designed a wastebasket to encourage people to recycle unwanted papers. It is designed to kill your freetime in office as well. Especially for people who loves to kick , you should get it and place in your office. Hopefully your boss doesn't mind you kick when you work.

Personally, I don't think it is much practical as you can see the capacity isn't big enough. What is the purpose to kick it if you can simply throw to your wastebasket? I will still buy it because of the design and creativity.



Same Paper PlayAgain

It has a weird name

Just kick and...Goooooall !


Is throwing your papers away by using hand that hard?


Finally, recycle your paper and don't waste it. Something encourages us to recycle, it gains a credit

The very special person on stage

This was my long-waited day, he has finally arrived. I was so excited when I firstly saw the advertisement from newspaper informing us that this very special person is visiting us, in Malaysia. I have waited for a month just to witness his arrival. Quickly after my class, I rushed to Queensbay mall. Very lucky, it was the last session he will be on the stage.



Who is the special person?













There were lots of people over there, grabbing their DSLR and compact digital. I was a bit too late to get in the perfect position for capturing the special one. Struggling to snap some pictures.


This little boy was curiously starring at me. "Who is that weird Koko?"





Still, who is the special one? Let's see...





















ASIMO !


Woohoo ! I was waiting him to arrive for about a month ! He is totally automated, an intelligent robot. He greeted us with his cute cartoon-liked voice in English and Bahasa Malaysia.


Asimo is showing off his running ability. Believe or not? They spent over 20 years just to perfect the balance of walking and running. There are still rooms for improvement.



He paints it ! He didn't actually paint it, just showing the ability of grabbing the brush and waiving on the paper.

He asked the M.C : "Could you pass the brush for me?"


Now, he can dance ! It was "Raya Sayang" - Malaysian classic. People were follow his dance steps. He can stand on only one leg.



Haha..The most common movement I think.


There will be a team of Asimos running on the field during EPL or world cup, maybe?



He is meant to serve you. Are you thirsty?



He was turning his body, walking towards to the people



That's brilliant !


They allowed few lucky families to snap some pictures with Asimo.


Asimo bye bye ! He loves to say "thank you, terima kasih"


Asimo keychain, shirts and dolls were available during the roadshow.



Asimo in detail
Asimo - A humanoid robot invented by Honda. It started with 2 legs walking machine EO 1986 until Asimo 2000-current.

Asimo was announced in year 2000. He is now still under development.


I am happy to see the technology nowadays is getting more advance. It reminds me of the movie "i-robot". Do you still remember the story? In the story, robots were built to serve human. Years after R&D, they can even make decision according the THREE LAWS.

THE THREE LAWS OF ROBOTICS:
  1. A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.
  2. A robot must obey orders given it by human beings, except where such orders would conflict with the First Law.
  3. A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law.

Ended up, the robots tried to dominate the world. Because the robots know that human will be extincted if the human are repeating what they are doing again.(Maybe...nuclear effect, war or what? I can't totally remember about the storyline). Robots started to control human with their overwhelming abilities. Human started to fight against robots which were initially designed for serving the human...

After watching the roadshow, it really made me feel like watching a movie, the revolution of technology and science. Will it happen in the real world, like the movie, or any other novel?



A potential incident in the future?



When scientists in some bunker in the year 2525 are trying to determine when humanity handed over the keys to the robot overlords, December 11, 2007, may be a good date, for on this day, Honda announced it had given its ASIMO servant robots three key abilities. Here we break them down, and provide a "Future Shock" analysis of each:


Autonomous battery charging - Honda developed a Borg-like charging bay for ASIMO. When the robot's battery level drops to a certain point, it seeks out the closest bay.
Future Shock: Seeking a power source is the first step towards domination, Coppertop.


Avoiding oncoming people - ASIMO sees an oncoming person through its eye camera, judges its inertia, guesses its speed and path, then either changes course to steer clear, or simply takes a step back.
Future Shock: If they're taught subservience, they start questioning their predestined role. Also, doesn't this sound a lot like targeting?


Working together - This involves constant sharing of relevant data between networked ASIMOs, and a survey of which robot is closest to the most pressing task, and what his battery life status is. Among them, they "decide" which one is best suited to go in and do the job.
Future Shock: If I have to explain to you why robots working together could be a bad thing, well, you're probably already dead.
