These Concept Vehicles Will Make Your Jaw Drop

These Concept Vehicles Will Make Your Jaw Drop: "

While concepts–a practice in the design world that often leaves most people scratching their heads in puzzlement–are usually hit and miss, there are a few that really inspire closer scrutiny.

Enter Michel Jelinek, a Czech designer who likes his machines futuristic in the vein of Sid Mead. We couldn’t help NOT name dropping the guy who did illustrations for Blade Runner since he practically elevated the whole staid medium of designing sci-fi movies from lowbrow swill to breathtaking scale.

Lumi Sleep Mask Wakes You Gently With A Virtual Sunrise

Lumi Sleep Mask Wakes You Gently With A Virtual Sunrise: "

If you have trouble falling to sleep at night or waking in the morning due to the amount or lack of light in your room. A new sleep regulating device has been created called the Lumi Sleep Mask which provides you with your very own virtual sunrise half an hour before you need to rise, gently waking you.

The Lumi device started it journey from concept to production on the Kickstarter website and just like traditional sleep masks Lumi blocks out light to allow you to fall asleep even during the day. But unlike traditional masks it then uses a light unit inside to simulate a virtual sunrise. Simply sent the alarm on the side of the Lumi mask and wear it to sleep.

好看又發人深省的蕈狀雲造型桌燈: "

大人物之前介紹過不少奇形怪狀的桌燈，但這個絕對是吸睛度百分百！雖然核子武器的使用可以是很值得認真討論的議題，不過如果你從照片或影片中看過核彈爆炸的情景，一定對那朵巨大的蕈狀雲感到印象深刻。現在有藝術家很巧妙地將蕈狀雲融入了桌燈的設計之中。

[消息] 到底誰告誰

[消息] 到底誰告誰: "

最近科技產業告來告去從不間斷

到底誰告誰已經搞不清

但是網路上許多說法與新聞加入了主觀意識，所以要從中判斷到底誰對誰錯根本很難

正所謂

信者恆信，不信者永遠都不信

我是抱持著中立的角度看這件事情

今天找到這張插圖也很厲害

居然能把「到底誰告誰」這樣的主題，畫的「非常的漂亮」

其中方框的大小表示該公司的收益，越大就越賺錢

實線表示還在控告中

虛線表示已經宣判結果

最後也請參考這篇「專利到底是怎麼一回事？」

Apple準備「升級」紐約第五大道旗艦店，從90片玻璃變成15片。

Apple準備「升級」紐約第五大道旗艦店，從90片玻璃變成15片。: "

Fifth avenue cube changes 2011

從今年六月，Apple就開始「升級」紐約第五大道Apple Store旗艦店。

根據當時的施工規劃文件，除了暫時拆除紐約最熱門拍照景點的玻璃立方體之外，工程還包含排水溝、地面鋪裝以及周圍的短柱等，總施工費用據說為660萬美金。但是對於「Cube」本體，則沒有任何消息。

不過，現在Apple已經在施工搭建的臨時外牆上公開了玻璃Cube的「升級」方案。新的玻璃Cube將採用超大型的玻璃板，每面僅使用三塊玻璃（原始設計是每面18塊）。而結果就是更簡約、更加接近「無縫」的外觀。

根據Apple在施工外牆上的說明……

We’re simplifying the Fifth Avenue cube. By using larger, seamless pieces of glass, we’re using just 15 panes instead of 90.
我們簡化了第五大道的立方體。藉由更大、無縫的玻璃板，我們僅用了15片玻璃，而不是90片。

Apple在去年就為了旗艦店的玻璃Cube建築申請了商標，現在大概要再重新申請一次了。
