The name Tachyon might not ring a bell for most people, but in reality it has been dealing with durable, extreme helmet cameras for quite some time already. Their latest release would be the Tachyon XC Micro Helmet Cam that offers similar quality features found in the recently released 2010 Tachyon XC back in August this year, although it helps you save space as it will come in a smaller, more compact design. Touted to be the industry’s smallest helmet camera to date, it will boast features including water-proofing without the need for an external case, a patented shockproof design, a wide field of vision, alongside superior light-gathering ability. The XC Micro can also take pride in the fact that it is also the only helmet camera on the market which can accept the entire range of microSDHC cards, allowing you to store up to 32GB of non-stop footage at any one time. Thanks to its condensed size, you can easily take this around with you, making sure your adrenaline-rushing adventures are always caught on camera for posterity.

A lot of items made out of old gadgets don’t exactly blend in within the real world.  Those cuff links made out of old Xbox buttons aren’t going to impress your boss in the least.  I know it’s difficult when you feel like you’re trapped in a black, white and beige world to find a way to still express yourself.  However, some still have to at least somewhat keep the appearance of a professional.  Well this tie will look great in the work place and never let on that it has a highly geeky twist.
