Innovative Designs and Devices

Patrick Griffin writes "When it comes to product design, the significance of aesthetics, the way its design looks and feels, determines the choice of the customer once the functionalities of multiple devices are more or less similar. If supported by sound user interface and a well-tested, clean implementation, innovative design solutions can drastically enhance the user experience. The article Innovative Designs and Devices presents innovative, futuristic gadgets, devices, designs and concepts which can become reality in 2008 or over the next few years." Some of the designs are real, others are stupid, and some are just dreams for the future. But some of this stuff is really cool.

Re:the Dual Music Player

Design flaw? No, it's a design advantage.

Imagine the scene: You're walking down the street, listening to your music and a hooded yob-youth is coming towards you. He stops you and demands your music player.

Normal response: Aw crap, he has a knife/gun and I've just got an MP3 player. I don't want to get killed over it so I'll hand it open.

New response: "What, this thing?" *swing spinning CD up in an arc and slice hoody's face before running while he recovers*

Now you get music and personal protection in one :)

Note: The above scenario is not recommended ;)

Yes, it's perfect for all those Mission: Impossible scenarios I find myself in where I must dispose of the message medium instantly.

They'll rename it the Sony Ornj shortly before release. Or will that infringe on an Ikea product?

I still can't work out how you're supposed to use the three seashells.
