The year 2009 has brought along a new generation of wacky gadgets. The newest is a cell phone that looks like a Star Trek Communicator. It is a VoIP/Skype platform that looks exactly like the communicator from the television series comes complete with three diodes, dial and gold tone mesh shell. It also comes with the Star Trek bleeping and dialogue. Unfortunately it only works if attached to your PC. IT is made by accompany called “Dream Cheeky.” It is just about to come on the market so no price is announced yet.
Yet another wacky gadget is the new remote that has been made by a group of students from Skjern Technical College in Denmark. The purpose of the remote – to automatically lower and raise the toilet seat so that husband and wives won’t fight over that issue any more.
Another really strange gadget is called The Hi-8 Camera Gun. This is a 16 mm film that is mounted on a rifle stock back. It was originally developed for military reporters in Vietnam. The rifle segment helps you steady your shots. It is almost sculptural what with being have gun and half camera and best left at home if you are on your way to the airport. It really does look like a weapon and not a camera.
How would you like to crawl right inside an oval shaped obelisk and close the lid over you and then listen to your favorite music? Thais exactly what the Ovei Pod is. It is a piece of art offered by the Oculars Group which costs fifty thousand pounds in the United Kingdom. It looks like something out of a Kubrick film. You basically climb inside the shimmy whit hard plastic capsule and an LCD display, climate control and a 5.1 surround system are there to keep you relaxed while you enjoy that “futuristic” feeling.
Have you ever wanted to walk-on water? Now you can in Waterwarkerz. These are large massive spheres filled with air. You blow them up after you crawl in side and then start heading for the water. You look like a hamster in a ball but these balls are a load full of fun.
You can also get Waterrolerz which are just like the WAterwalrz except they are sausage shaped. You can lie down on them and crawl and roll around on top of the water in them. There is also a land version of these called Moonwalkers for treading around on solid terrain.
One of the silliest gadgets invented this year is the Paper Airplane Launcer. This is a device with two spinning motors and a plastic disk. It works on the same principle as the Matchbox car launcher that you probably played with as a kid. All you need to do is stick the paper plane in between the disks and then launch it in the air at speeds of thirty mph. That is enough to really punch out an eye. For this reason it is not recommended that you give this gift to a child. The price is right for a novelty gadget however. It only costs about twenty dollars.
