Ten Incredible Technological Medical Marvels For The Future Posted: 19 Jun 2009 06:19 AM PDT Medical marvels covered on YD range from tech solutions for the impaired to regular stuff like toilets and oral hygiene. Here's a look at ten medical and technological solutions for those with disabilities and not-so-impaired people. Hopefully some of them will make from the drawing board to the real-world. 10) I Contact by Eun-Gyeong Gwon & Eun-Jae Lee Although at the moment it may be hard to fathom this concept, but designers Eun-Gyeong Gwon & Eun-Jae Lee propose a contact lens that is so technologically advanced that it works like a mouse for your computer. It's intended for people with disabilities, but that shouldn't stop the able-bodied people from experimenting with it. Designed for the visually impaired, the Touch Sight Camera looks to be an innovative solution for those who would like to capture precious moments even though they can't literally see it. 8 ) Sens Phone by Takumi Yoshida Giving the blind an edge of independence is the Sens Phone. It's easy to use features will make it a practical device for independent use. Quite comical to say the least, although grandma here looks quite content to use it as her hearing aid! 6) Universal Toilet For The Disabled by Changduk Kim & Youngki Hong The Universal Toilet has a flexible design coz it can be used by both the able-bodied and people on wheelchairs conveniently. 5) Oral Hygiene Monitor by Sarah Tisdale Put me through the surgical knife but spare me the dentist! How many of us echo this sentiment…me, me me! Oral Hygiene Monitor makes sure that we won't forget our dentist; EVER! 4) Braille Interpreter by Hyung Jin Lim Just because someone is blind, it's not necessary that they know Braille. Braille Interpreter is a gadget that will help them learn and interpret the language. 3) Nike Air Jordan Prosthetics by Colin Matsco Designer limb! 2) Beagle Scarf For Autism by Leo Chao A scarf that acts as a comforter for those with Autism, this one includes speakers in the hood, customized aroma patches along with textured inner pockets. 1) Lumitact Breast Prosthesis by Stephanie Choplin Besides the pain and trauma associated with Breast Cancer, the loss of femininity is the biggest psychological side-effect. Lumitact is an adhesive, tactile breast prosthesis that integrates Phillips' Lumalive material into its design. It tries to bring back the sense of self-confidence and sexiness into the woman's life. blind, cancer, Deaf, dentist, handicapped, hygiene, Medical, Ten |
Giant Trucks Are No Longer Scary Posted: 19 Jun 2009 12:05 AM PDT The noisy, polluting, gas guzzling giants are being tamed to look more demure and sophisticated, and how! The Scania Concept that we see here is a pure reflection of this new theory and is a bid to change the perception that trucks are the big bullies of the highway. It is designed to be eco-friendly and economical by using a diesel-electric hybrid engine. The innovative part comes on the wheel-hub design that sports indicative color-coded LEDs that point out speeding and other rules broken.

Posted: 19 Jun 2009 12:00 AM PDT 360° View is an outdoor camera system that captures the exotic thrills of extreme sports from amazing angles. The setup consists of three small waterproof video cameras with adapters, a display module and an external trigger. This means you get three different perspectives of the particular trick or maneuver. You can either place the cams stationary or mount it on the athlete via the adapter. What's interesting is that if no help is around, the athlete can independently record the tricks via the external trigger. In the mood of being vain? Hand over the 360 view module to your pals and let them get live streaming of your action. Best three tricks can be later uploaded to your YouTube account. Go ahead, and be a SHOW OFF!
