Ultra Thin Speakers, Sound Of The Future - Gizmo Watch


Ultra Thin Speakers, Sound Of The Future - Gizmo Watch: "This may not rank up there with flying cars and intelligent robots, but the Flat, Flexible Loudspeakers (FFL) sound pretty awesome. These paper-thin speakers made of flexible laminates can be put nearly anywhere, thanks to their flexibility and size. Also, the developer, Warwick Audio Technology, claims that it has a more widespread sound pattern as compared to conventional speakers, mainly because the entire air mass in front of the speakers is moved, as opposed to a comparatively smaller mass from the conventional pinpoint source.

Initially, the system will be put to use in large spaces, like airports and train terminals, allowing for clear and better-sounding announcements. But of course, the possibilities are huge, and current audio systems may soon become vintage.

IF Mode Folding Bike Fits In A Suitcase - The Design blog: "Designed and produced by Mark Sanders, the “iF Mode” is a regular-size bike that folds into a compact size (102 H x 27 W x 66 cm L) without removing any parts, thanks to its automatic folding mechanism. Featuring a single-sided fork and rear stay, folding handlebars, integrated stem, front fork and folding pedals, the folding bike shuns greasy chains, a complex tube and the muddle of a traditional bicycle. The iF Mode comes with mechanical disc brake w/160mm rotors on each end, which provides enough stopping power to halt its 26″ wheels. Weighting 14.7kg, the bike is compact, as it easily fits in a suitcase after removing the wheels. Everything about the iF Mode seems perfect, apart from its whopping $2,579 price tag, higher than the cost of new Nano car from Tata Motors. Check out the video after the jump."
