Power of YOU

                                     
This clever gadget, called Activ, makes it possible to harness the kinetic energy created by your own body! The personal electricity generator was designed to be worn on the knee- with each step, it juices up the battery a little more. After it’s full, just attach a USB cord directly to Activ to power your cell phone or other device. Instead of plugging into the wall… plug into you!

Gasp! I would’ve had this post written 20 minutes ago, but I was too busy geeking the hell out.


Tucked away in a single streetview image of what appears to be a mere police box, a newly discovered Google Maps easter egg lets you go inside the TARDIS.


(If you don’t know what the TARDIS is, come on.)

SMARTPHONES FOR BLIND

Nearly 63 million people in India are visually impaired. That is why Sumit Dagar will be launching the world’s first braille cellphone in India in the next 12 months!
 

Sometime in the next 12 months he’ll be rolling out the world’s first braille cellphone. His company,Kriyate, has drawn up the first prototype, pictured here. Dagar says that test users found it difficult to imagine dynamic braille on such a small device. “But once they comprehend it, the joy is so immense. That’s what makes us most happy.” On the drawing board are plans for an even more advanced phone with a camera that can translate text to braille and images to raised relief figures on the device’s “display.”
