Acer launches the worlds first 27-inch, 120hz, NVIDIA 3D Vision-compatible monitor

Acer have hit the market first with a 27-inch, Full-HD, 3D Display. Dubbed the Acer HN274H, Acer have specced it well, Full HD, 100, 000, 000:1 contrast ratio, LED-backlit, 120hz refresh rate and a 2ms response time is not too shabby at all. Yes it's not an IPS-based panel, but for the fast-motion, first-person shooter fans like myself, the 120hz gives you a semi.

Bicycle with charging system for Gadgets

I think the concept is brills-green. Meng Fandi designer already has a iF design award and good for the earlier work, so I would expect nothing less. The I-Green is a small peripheral motor converts kinetic energy into electricity to charge almost any portable device. I like to ride my bike with my phone to my progress, but the GPS sensor kills the battery. This seems like a great idea to keep your phone juiced. I’ll take one, but please, but perhaps in another color?

Hyper Touch Guitar – No strings Attached


There are all kinds of cool looking guitars out there, but most of them are still using ropes stretched to make a sound. How old-fashioned! The Guitar Play brings Hyper guitar design in the 21st century by replacing the strings and the neck with a touch screen, giving an unprecedented level of flexibility.

The design lets you change the settings of the guitar with the touch of a button, so you can go six-string and 12 string, or change tunings instantly. No more multi-neck guitars that make you look like a 1970 progressive rock band reject.
Provided incomplete information still leaves many questions as it works as a MIDI controller, or can be used as a single instrument. I guess I’ll find those details if it ever gets closer to production.
