Hybrid Motorcycles

At the beginning of this entry let us have a moment of nostalgia for our beloved Harleys or Ducatis. And now that the moment is over, say hello to the new generations of roaring motorcycles that are due to appear later this year. Devised by Machinheart, these new hybrid motorcycles are here to give you a glimpse of the future and maybe a breath of fresh air.

This hybrid bike goes up to 150 MPG from propane, diesel or gasoline. The biggest difference between them and the classic ride is the monocoque frame, stronger then the original one. Just like many of the hybrid motor rides designed today, this has a motor powered by the battery used for accelerating as the one powered by fuel charges the batteries.

Honda and Yamaha have stated that they will both release a hybrid that, unlike traditional bikes makes nearly no sound. I guess that would take the thrill out of the ride, no? But don’t be scared, they’ve figure out a solution: a noise generator that would imitate the deafening noise of a usual motorcycle. Now, isn’t that a bit freaky?


The New SwiMP3

The SwiMP3 is compatible with Mac and PC and supports both MP3 and WMA. It is equipped with a rechargeable battery and has a 256 MB memory. Your swimming agility will not be harmed in any way, as the device weighs only 2 ounces.

Lexon LCD E8 Wall Clock

Now, cover half of the picture posted and try to figure out what the first clock is saying. Well, it says that the time is 12:59, how do I know that?

io-Jacket

Although all modern gadgets have the goal to combine good-looks with multifunctional technology and effectiveness, this is so much better then the others! Why? Because you can actually wear it! It has all the cool stuff in it like a Bluetooth and built-in MP3 player or touch sensitive control pads. But the ability through which its promoted is its compatibility with GPSoverIP. It uses a hybrid GPS technology which enables you to look for the person wearing the jacket even inside a building. The person who wears the io-Jacket can upload the information to a mobile phone or to the internet giving the watcher (probably a deranged parent) the opportunity of observing his/her every move. Londefrey, the company which produces it has sold one for humanitarian causes carrying out an auction in the purpose of saving money for the “Humans for Humans” foundation. It seems though that none other have been made for commercial purposes so we just have to sit and wait.
