| Posted: 05 Aug 2011 03:15 AM PDT Transcendental Tunes is a music player set with digital jewelry that offers an alternative route to treating Alzheimer's patients. It is developed under the premise that "people living with Alzheimer's don't lose their memories, but lose their capacity to reach them." The digital jewels store songs that are relevant to the patient and hopes to trigger their memory in order to make them feel connected. José explains, "After the care partner chooses a song that connects him with the patient living with Alzheimer's, he stores the meaningful song on a digital jewelry piece. A metallic icon that works as an RFID antenna, housed by a translucent gem, triggers the song when placed on top of a vintage-looking audio device. This digital jewel becomes not only the carrier of an auditory stimulus, but the physicality of the jewel also carries a meaningful connection for the care partner.
The old-looking wooden audio artifact, which has no knobs, buttons or displays, has been designed with the Alzheimer patient in mind. A patient living with Alzheimer's cannot recognize new objects as musical-providing devices. The readability of the object has to be subtle and quiet." Basically the idea is to trigger memories and hopefully find a new of making the caregiver and the patient feel connected. Designer: José de la O ----------        |
| Posted: 05 Aug 2011 02:41 AM PDT I remember borrowing a professional camera from a cousin for my African Safari Honeymoon. You would expect me to capture some really gorgeous pictures of lions making their kill, well to cut a long story short, I had no clue how to work the thing, so I ended up overexposing some pictures and taking out-of-focus shots. Thankfully the current generation of DSLRs is more forgiving towards amateurs. But basics like lighting and exposure can still intimidate some, hence the need for the Flower! A lens cap that allows you to automatically capture some stunning shots by simply regulating the light exposure; ok Africa, here I come!

| Posted: 05 Aug 2011 12:16 AM PDT Designed for short-range use, this compressed air powered two-wheeler is perfect for the urban environment. Designer Jurmol Yao imagines the Transport Hornet as a viable means of getting around for businesses like the postal service that move at low-speed and could refill at stations between stops. The benefits: zero-pollution, reusable quick-fill air cylinders, and no noise! Designer: Jurmol Yao ----------     |
| Posted: 05 Aug 2011 12:01 AM PDT The Equine Exhale Breath Condenser provides a new, innovative method of collecting respiratory samples used to diagnose health conditions effecting the beautiful beasts that also avoids the current invasive, expensive (because of sedatives), and traumatic procedure involving difficult restraint and the insertion of large tubes. The animal’s warm exhale enters a chamber as condensation which is then cooled, transforming it into information packed liquid drops that slip into a microtube for immediate analysis. We saved you from seeing the photos of horses with bloody snouts- but trust us, it’s super sad! Gotta love this humane solution. Designers: Cleber Niels and Rodrigo de Freitas Wolf ----------     |
| Posted: 05 Aug 2011 12:01 AM PDT I know I’m not alone when I say I want my pilot on my next flight to be as comfortable, rested, and confident as possible. Understanding the importance of clear speech, hearing, and comfort of a pilot’s communication headset, BMW Group DesignworksUSA created this customizable system that fuses ergonomics, audio functionality, and a streamlined interface for a comfortable, relaxed, and safe flying experience. New features include a sliding control on the headband to find the optimum balance between comfort and a “tight” fit. Cushions are particularly soft around the temple area of sunglasses, keeping ambient noise out even more effectively. The special ear cup and inclined axis of the headset further improve passive noise attenuation. Designer: DesignworksUSA ----------     |
