The bike is simple, yet look how exquisite it looks. The shape, the form, the lines, all perfect yet gorgeous simplicity. It’s from an Australian company named Van Moof, and besides it sleek appearance, it also boasts front and rear solar powered LED lights which are housed in the bike’s frame.

Winner of the 2009 Euro Bike Best Urban Bicycle award, Amsterdam's VANMOOF is creating a stir in the Dutch capital, and is one of the smoothest rides you'll encounter.

Absolutely exquisite!

The Grey Faced Buzzard

Posted: 15 May 2010 07:26 AM PDT

This new zero-emission unmanned aerial vehicle may seem like a toy but it is really a model hybrid drone meant to showcase the future of aviation. It makes use of an electric motor which should be one reason why it runs silently and is powered by a fuel cell. This hybrid drone took off for 15 minutes at up to 100kph at an altitude of less than 300 meters for starters, and did it without emitting a single iota of carbon dioxide emissions.

It took the National Cheng Kung University in Taiwan $15,822 to build one and tipped the scales at 22kg and measuring nearly 2 meters long while producing 1KW of power. A bit expensive but a common price for new technology.

Hydrogen Airliner Takes Off Vertically

Posted: 15 May 2010 07:24 AM PDT

What does the future hold as far as air transport is concerned? Well we have seen a couple of concepts on what the future does have in store from the crazy minds of people and this one which shows an airbus taking off vertically should be a common sighting. However, the only thing this aircraft has different from the traditional ones is that it runs on hydrogen power.

In this design concept, the aircraft’s hydrogen fuel is synthesized from water drawn from a nearby river. That fuel is pumped to the awaiting jets, refueling as they perch high atop their mid-21st-century runways, which now look more like elegantly-designed platforms.

Rihanna’s LED Dress

Posted: 14 May 2010 12:19 AM PDT

This isn't the first time we have seen a LED powered dress but when you hear that it is from Rihanna, you know it is something special. Rihanna is among the celebrities who is known for making fashion statements and this LED dress will surely be noticed when she wears it at her Last Girl On Earth tour that kicked off last month in Belgium.

Well, aside from being a fashion statement, questions regarding its waterproofing comes into mind, especially when Rihanna starts working a sweat.

Dexim DCA199 Foldable Solar-Powered P-Flip for the iPhone 3G and 3GS

Posted: 13 May 2010 06:18 PM PDT

Solar powered chargers are coming out in numbers and here is one made for that popular Apple device. The Dexim DCA199 Foldable Solar-Powered P-Flip for the iPhone 3G and 3GS is a cool solar powered charger that provides up to 8 hours of talk time and 15 hours of video playback or gaming for iPhone owners.

It takes about 15 hours of charging under 15 hours of direct sunlight which may be an issue compared to the usual USB charging phase. Its solar panels would come in handy when you hit the great outdoors with not a single power outlet in sight, so hopefully the skies remain clear throughout the day. This solar charger for the iPhone 3G and 3GS retails for about $79.95.
