Pirate Boat Race game uses both PC and iPhone / iPod Touch

The Pirate Boat Race Game by Pirata London created. This is a unique gaming experience, because it uses an iPhone / iPod Touch in conjunction with a PC.

The essential core of the app / program is to create a boat race in a virtual world, and with features of the line of the ever-popular Apple device. Think of it as turning your iPhone or iPod Touch into something like a Wiimote.

If you want to play the game, you have to visit the official website. So, you have to do is download the registration form and on your iPhone and iPod Touch. Do not worry the software is free.

Therefore, it is a matter of synchronization from your PC to the mobile device, so that you “can line”. You need a photo of the QR code with a camera of the iPhone, or enter a unique code that make the iPod touch.

From there, you have to play your own team, rowing and a dozen people at a certain time, with five people per boat. Of course, you can gather around to do the PC, then it is considered a social activity.

Overall I'm quite impressed by the race pirate ship, and it shows how the iPhone / iPod Touch can be used in conjunction with office equipment. I am eager to use the iPhone with other devices to see how video-game consoles, really.

Mini centrifuge counter

Gadgets are obviously cooler with all that they are miniatures. After all, the reason for most devices are getting smaller and smaller. Now you can even create a mini-dryer. This means you can dry your clothes everywhere. Even if you are out of town in a hotel at random, you will always manage to dry your clothes.

This is a spin-dryer, which means that it means more water extracts from your clothes in a normal washing machine. This compact dryer can be combined with the washing machine mini Wonderwash if you prefer to do all your laundry on your counter. This dryer can handle about 1-2 pairs of jeans per load, so it can not quite make it a lot. You can buy the hair for $ 77.89 from Amazon.

iPhone Dock iCrystal

Dock iCrystal more like something you would see in a Sci-Fi, rather than in your home. “The more your taste, could be good or bad. Frankly, it's much more attractive to me. Plus for those of you that the options, there are a few different colors you choose when you can buy the dock.

The iPhone docking station from Speakal is completely unique with the two balls with a drop light, which makes a nice light blue. I think the blue really stands out on the best speakers in red with other colors it looks much more moderate. If you are not that bright red, do not worry it also comes in black and white. To power requires 4 AA batteries. It also has a 3.5 mm input that can be connected to other devices. You can buy it for $ 79.99.

Japanese Sky Coaster is Pedal cycle

Some of you may remember, when we travel on Kolelinia reported special way by putting a bike on a rail and pedestrian traffic to make.

I raise this question because it reminds me of this roller coaster Sky Cycle. It is in the Highland Park of Japan Washuzan is required and passengers through.

I have a video of it if you want to see him in action, but this is not a roller coaster with loops or anything super. However, you have to admire the coast near pedal powered cars, and the cute pink basket.

I wonder if you could make a rollercoaster, pedals with loops. I once heard that the loops in roller coasters anyway due to gravity, that the passengers supplied with power and stay in the car instead of the centrifugal force of the bar who keeps them in.

In other words, I welcome the extreme of a pedal powered roller coaster, but I know there are security problems. Perhaps they should be Lance Armstrong to start.

Yeah, I do not think a roller coaster of extreme pedal is never the light of day, not more than Kolelinia. However, it is never in vain to dream.

Mi-sport helmets are closely

We are in the middle of a hot summer in my part of the world, and I can not wait to go swimming again. I am not one of a kind that must have their music everywhere, even in water, but when I did it, I bring to the mi-sport helmet.

Mi-Sport has a 4GB hard disk media has a rechargeable battery 7:00. It is made for MP3, WMA and AAC files.

This is not the first time I saw wearing a helmet that is designed on the water, but the Mi-Sport in order to be in the water. Yes, this is not only waterproof or splash-proof, but evidence of water effectively.

My source even said that you listen to the U-boats, which usually is not the case with most “water-resistant to feet or meters xy” products. Yes, the ear pads and water-blocking ear plugs sponge so, not your music when you take a dive.

You will notice that there is no display on the e-sports, but it brings voice navigation, which have the user names of their tracks or playlists allows for playback.

Unfortunately, there is no word if the product is available. It's really a shame. Have not you read my introduction, mi-sport? People want to go swimming!

TrimTabs 3 × 3-Wheel Three vechicle

This is not the first time I reported on a vehicle with three wheels. Normally call my source of three-wheel tricycles. I do not know why they do not name a tricycle, but I think that is only up mental pictures of something small and red. Maybe they should call it things like “BIG tricycles.

In any case, the 3 × 3 TrimTabs of designer David Parrott. It is a tricycle, but not the type that the child is traveling.

A child may, like learning to ride a tricycle like. Apparently, the TrimTabs 3 × 3 has no handlebars. Apparently you have to rely on a ride at this point, like a Segway, I suppose. There is also a kind of hydraulic lever for tight curves.

In the back is a storage compartment that can stand in some way, take care what kind of track. I wonder if this is a roundabout or something.

Did I mention the front window of acrylic? Just enough to avoid the bad weather. Most tricycles and bicycles are not like that, let me tell you.

Unfortunately, this is an idea of these products, so there is no release date or price yet.

Mattel Loopz Simon without large buttons

Some of you may remember Simon, pattern and repetition of the early 80s. If I remember when it was not easy.

Loopz is a modern update of the technology, but the big buttons that you will make when they have to light up, you get the modern application of lasers.

You can watch the video him in action, and it is far too dramatically. However, it gives you an idea of what it is.

This reminds me of the Interactive Beamz. I reported a few months ago, and it was a way to make an instrument by playing your hand in the laser beams. Interactive Beamz six places to cross your hands, and about four Loopz. I think you could probably make sweet music on Loopz if you tried, though.

I remember a few songs by Simon and I have never understood how much Simon has RockBand paved the way for games like Guitar Hero and. Now we're the Loopz, and this modern version of Simon effective control can era of performance and remember the best times and scores.

You can pre-order from Entertainment Earth now for a price of about $ 37.99.
