Don’t Look Away: iPhone Holder Follows Your Every Move



So  you say you’re a lonely little vlogger with no

So you say you’re a lonely little vlogger with no one to hold your video camera while you go on and on about…whatever it is vloggers talk about? Well, not to fear – this neat little tool holds your iPhone and, as long as you’re wearing the accompanying beacon, swivels it around to follow you wherever you go.





The Swivl stand is a concept that will soon be available for anyone who wants to film themselves but doesn’t want to ask a friend for help. It easily holds an iPhone, iPod Touch, Android phone or Flip camera. There’s no setup required and it can even be used with a tripod. It’s available now for pre-order, but at $160 you’d better be pretty dedicated to your vlog to snag one.

Modular housing concept boasts 64 possible combinations

Italian Designer Gabriel Aramu has conceptualized a modular housing system that seems to offer endless possibilities. Dubbed "Sliding Hub," these prefabricated cubes join together to create a temporary housing solution for multiple situations. In the event that emergency shelters are required, the modules can be packed and transported to any destination. On arrival, the modules are easily joined together, with the flexibility to house individuals, small groups or large numbers without limitation. Each module incorporates an insulation system suitable for all kinds of weather conditions. In addition, the temporary accommodation units provide a comfortable standard of living, important to natural disaster victims. Constructed with steel reinforcements, numerous modules can be assembled together to create various sizes and shapes, whilst sliding them open creates large internal spaces. According to Aramu, the system can be configured 64 different ways, wh...

Review: HP Omni 27 all-in-one desktop PC

When we reviewed the HP TouchSmart 610-1030a all-in-one last year, we questioned just how useful most users would find the touch interface on a desktop PC. Thankfully HP has provided a non-touch alternative for those not likely to find much benefit from (and aren’t willing to pay extra for) a touchscreen-packing desktop unit. The Omni 27 Quad is also the company’s first 27-inch all-in-one model ... read on for our hands-on review. Omni 27 Quad series specs Our review unit came with Windows 7 Home Premium pre-installed and was powered by an Intel Core i7-2600S processor running at 2.80 GHz, 8 GB of RAM, and with a 2 GB AMD Radeon HD 6550A graphics card. There was also a 2 TB 7200 rpm HDD for storage, Beats audio, Blu-ray drive and a digital TV tuner and accompanying remote and IR blaster for turning the unit into a DVR via Windows Media Center. This is a step or two up from the standard configuration, which features an Intel Core i...

A Tractor Beam Made of Sound

Scientists have created a sonic tractor beam . And it's not simply an amazing proof of concept: This beam pulls with a billion times more force and can tow objects a million times larger than previous schemes for tractor beams. Tractor beams are staples of science fiction, projected from the Death Star in Star Wars and the Enterprise in Star Trek . The term was coined by sci-fi author and chemical engineer E.E. "Doc" Smith in 1931. In reality, scientists have previously succeeded in using light and sound waves to push and pull objects around on the microscopic level. For example, take laser-based optical tweezers , in which light imparts a slight push or pull on an item. Since the forces involved are small, these devices are used for moving things of correspondingly tiny size, including cells. Now acoustical engineers, led by Christine Démoré and Patrick Dahl at the University of Dundee in Scotland, have developed an acoustic tractor beam that can reel in ...
