This concept for a breath-powered iPod/iPhone charger has to be seen to be believed!
"The AIRE mask is a concept that hails from the mind of Joao Paulo Lammoglia, where it will rely on the power of your breath, converting it to electricity thanks to tiny wind turbines. All you need to do is ensure the AIRE mask remains connected to an iOS-powered device, breathe as usual, and you are good to go."
Sure, today you're just charging your iPod. But soon you'll be adding other gadgets, a cape, and servo-arms. Then? Well you might as well go all out and replace a limb or two.
It's a slippery slope I say! ;)
That sir, is what I like to call creepytech.
ReplyDeleteit might look cool in a game or something, but in real practice, is kinda creepy.
Phil. Take of the rebreather mask when we're meeting with clients. DANGIT! You're not Darth Vader's personal bounty hunter! Now put that thing away, Mr. Nakamura is looking pretty nervous.
That's most amusingly bonkers! I shall noise this abroad to my mates.
ReplyDeleteI need one of these for the apocalypse. Gotta have my ipod charged for those epic fights.
ReplyDeleteAnd so begins an era where 'there is only war.'
ReplyDelete:D
The marketing makes me laugh, I love the idea of someone trying to sleep/run in that thing.
ReplyDeleteI think they've missed a trick with the eco marketing angle. Clearly they should integrate a radiation filter and sell it to survivalists.
