‘Just In Case’ Case

Euri Inc’s Euricase (which should be called Just In Case) is an unnecessary ring case equipped with a 2-inch LCD display with a clock, alarm, calendar and photo album. Featuring LED perimeter lighting to make the ring stand out is good for when the ring is in the box only. One hopes the bride-to-be will be wearing it – no?

Wii Rifle
So the Wiizapper that came out recently for the shooter games wasn’t up to par in my book. It didn’t look aesthetically pleasing either. For all of us macho guys, we all want to hold something substantial, bigger, and explosively gorgeous because we all love big guns, if you know what I mean. That’s where this comes in, the Wii Rifle. I want to feel like I’m holding a sawed-off shotgun when I’m firing away, killing off zombies or anything else that needs their heads blown off. Isn’t it grand?
For around $17 bucks, with its smooth, sleek sex appeal, you’re going to be the new desperado for sure.


Lost? Give me a Ring!

To be quite honest, there’s been an awful lot of gadgetry lately tied to rings, and while it’s a curious fascination, you won’t find us griping over the latest ring-based device. Gail Knight’s vibrating GPS hoops are nothing short of a traveler’s dream come true, as these fanciful finger adornments work in conjunction with a neck-worn GPS controller to direct you to your destination via simple buzzing cues. The rings vibrate in a variety of manners to instruct the wearer which direction to go, which could certainly help an English tourist in Japan feel a lot more at home. Granted, even the inventor admits that the current design is entirely more suited for a lady, but we can envision quite a few macho gents putting their pride aside in order to refrain from being lost.

Our Robotic Overlords Prepare Us for Our Future Controllers

Sure, they start out as handy vibrating finger alarms. But eventually, they’ll be linked directly to our frontal lobes and will control all of our thoughts and actions. And the idea that this is just a design concept? Yeah, right.
