Magnetic Floating Globe (10cm diameter)

Posted by Notcot on Oct 11, 2010 in Gadgets
Magnetic Floating Globe (10cm diameter)

This is not a trick! The globe is not hanging from an invisible thread. It is actually suspended by an impressive electronically controlled magnetic system. The magnetic head above the globe contains an electro magnet and a magnetic field sensor, and the frame base accommodates the micro-processor and the electronic control components.

Extra Large Big Button Remote Control

Posted by Notcot on Sep 28, 2010 in Gadgets
Extra Large Big Button Remote Control

Isn’t it infuriating when the remote control goes missing? Well that is much less likely to happen with the Big Button Remote Control – it is nearly a foot long! It seems that manufacturers are competing to make the smallest most delicate remotes possible. They may look chic and elegant, but it results in a piece of plastic and metal that is tricky to use unless you have the eyesight of an 8 year old and the dexterity of a brain surgeon. If you have a fantastic home cinema set up, with a big screen, DVD player, and surround sound, seeing what all those fiddly buttons do can be next to impossible in the cinematic gloom.

Kymera Wand – Magic Wand as seen on Dragons Den

Posted by Notcot on Aug 26, 2010 in Electronics, Gadgets, Home Cinema & Video, Peripherals & Accessories

Kymera Wand - 'Magic Wand' as seen on Dragons Den

It’s just the thing that Harry Potter could use while watching TV at Hogwarts – a wand that changes channels or turns down the volume at the flick of a wrist.

And this buttonless remote control certainly seems to have magic properties because it has just attracted the largest investment in the history of Dragons’ Den, BBC2’s entrepreneurial reality series.

Entrepreneurs Chris Barnardo and Richard Blakesley accepted a £200,000 offer from tough-talking Duncan Bannatyne for their Kymera Wand on the hit show. – Dail Mail

If you or your precious offspring are obsessed with a certain bespectacled boy wizard, you’ll no-doubt already have wands lying about the house. This one, however, is totally different to anything you will have waggled before – it can control the telly. In fact, it can control most things that require a remote control, making its wielder appear to be able to perform some pretty incredible leisure-orientated magic tricks, and you won’t even need to spout gibberish spells to do it.

After you’ve learnt the basics (it takes a few practice sweeps to get the hang of it), you’ll be able to programme your wand to control the volume, channel, brightness or whatever your remote can do. A turning motion (it’s all in the wrist) will control the volume, a sweep up or down will move the channel forward or back a step, and even double-tapping on the side will perform whatever you assign it. In all there are 13 different swooshes, sweeps and swoops to learn, and each one can be given a separate task to complete. All you have to do is put your wand into ‘learning mode’ by giving it a quick tap on the shaft, perform the move you want, and then press the corresponding key on your remote – the wand remembers it and performs it next time you do the same move.

It’s difficult to emphasise how much fun this is, and how cool the effect is when you’re merrily commanding all and sundry around you. The Hi-Fi, the TV, the computer, the lights (if you’re fancy enough to have remote control lights), anything that needs flicking on or off in the room can be controlled by a wave of your wand. Indeed, if you’re even slightly interested in anything vaguely wizard-related then you owe it to yourself to get one of these – great fun, ingenious technology and an impressive effect. Top it off with a beautiful faux-dragonskin box with Chinese silk inlay and you’ve got a superb little package, perfect for the wannabe wizard in your life.

Features:

  • The Wand Remote Control allows you to control remote devices with a swish.
  • Most devices that use a remote control can be manipulated with the wand – TVs, Hi-Fis etc.
  • Can control multiple devices, not limited to one.
  • 13 commands in total can be learned by the Wand.
  • Programme the wand by putting it in learning mode, performing an action and pressing the corresponding key on the remote control.
  • Learns via infrared codes from remote control.
  • Comes packaged in its own beautifully decorated case.
  • Please note: instructions for the wand are only available in English.

Full range of actions:

  • Rotate clockwise.
  • Rotate anticlockwise.
  • Flick upwards.
  • Flick downwards.
  • Flick left.
  • Flick right.
  • Tap on top.
  • Tap on side.
  • Double tap on top.
  • Double tap on side.
  • Push forward.
  • Pull back.
  • Big swish.
  • Suitable for ages 8 years +, or anyone old enough to enrol at Hogwarts.

Panasonic Lumix FS11 Digital Camera – Black 2.7 inch LCD

Posted by Notcot on Jul 23, 2010 in Photography

Average Rating: 2.5 / 5 (2 Reviews)

Product Description
Compact Digital Camera FS11 – 28mm Wide-angle 5x Optical Zoom LUMIX DC Lens and iA (Intelligent Auto) Mode with Advanced Scene DetectionIn iA (Intelligent Auto) Mode, 4 detection functions work automatically and simultaneously to optimize your settings, making it easier than ever to take beautiful photos every time. The iA Mode includes MEGA O.I.S. (Optical Image Stabilizer) to detect hand-shake, Intelligent ISO Control to detect subject movement, Face Detection AF/AE to detect faces in the frame and Intelligent Scene Selector to detect scene conditions. Sunset Mode has been added to the Intelligent Scene Selector. The DMC-FS11 features a 28mm wide-angle 5x optical zoom LUMIX DC VARIO lens (35mm camera equivalent: 28-140mm). The 28mm wide-angle lens lets you easily capture large groups of people indoors or expansive architectural structures and scenes with dynamic width and rich perspective. The 5x optical zoom lens captures beautiful shots of people or landscapes with 14.1-megapixel resolution. The Extra Optical Zoom function uses the center part of the CCD to extend this 5x zoom ratio to powerful 10.5x zoom at a resolution of 3-megapixel or less. To realize the Sonic Speed AF, a number of re-engineering and improvements are made including the adaptation of higher-speed actuator, the optimization of algorithms and the parallelization of software processing element. The result is ultra high speed yet accurate AF performance for you to enjoy the airy shooting that has experienced never before. Panasonic also replaced its linear program processing with parallel processing to achieve an ultra high-speed start-up time. The DMC-FS11 can record motion pictures in high-definition (1,280 x 720 pixels at 30 fps in Motion JPEG format). The pixel mixed readout method enables bright motion-picture recording even in low-light settings. The DMC-FS11 can also record stunning full-size motion pictures in WVGA (848 x 480 pixels at 30 fps) or standard motion pictures in VGA
