Flybar: A pogo stick that can jump cars |
Regular pogo sticks just don’t have the serious power needed to make them a truly fun toy. They just don’t bounce that high. The Flybar however, is like a pogo stick on steroids.
That stick you had as a kid? That’s nothing. This baby launches you way higher. I’m talking hopping over cars here. It gives you the ability to do all kinds of dangerous stunts. It operates using amazingly strong elastic bands called rubber thrusters, which increase the bounce height to a full seven feet. And yes, you may order one if you don’t like your neck all connected to your spine, for $320.

The Postal service better step up their game with gadget concepts like this one on the loose. The Stopper Postcard measures how long it takes that postcard to get from point A to point B. So, now postal workers have something else to stress out about. It’s a constant reminder of how far behind they are on any given day. Let’s hope it doesn’t push some of them over the edge.

Remember those
Clearly inspired by Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein and created using the first generation iPod nano, this victorian eye-Pod by Doctor Grymm will have you doing a double take. All of the functionality of the iPod remains intact, and the eye-Pod can even be worn on the wrist using a leather cuff, or placed on its custom Victrola dock, made of a brass lamp and bicycle parts.
Apple may be looking into a wireless remote wand to power the next generation of Apple TV media systems, offering the cursor on the Apple TV display the kind of accuracy a mouse gives the cursor on a PC. Just like millions of Nintendo Wii owners around the world.
