The Moshi Voice Control Travel Alarm Clock

November 4th, 2009 by Ally in Cool Clocks

Moshi travel alarm clock

When you’re traveling, it’s always a gamble relying on an alarm clock you’ve never used before.  You could always set an alarm on your cellphone, but I’ve owned cellphones before that didn’t have the most reliable alarm clocks in them.  Well now you can own a clock that is easy to set and you’d know is perfectly trustworthy.  It’s also made for travel to make your life easier.

Timeclock and door lock use facial recognition

November 3rd, 2009 by Mark R in Cool Clocks, Electronic Gadgets, Office Gadgets

face_timecardI once worked at a place that required me to have an ID card. I had to swipe it just to prove that I had showed up to work, and I couldn’t even get through the front door without it. If I forgot my ID card, it was a big hassle to explain myself to human resources, not to mention the waiting for someone to open the door for me.

This is just one of the reasons why I don’t work for “the man”. I can just see “the man” of the future implementing mandatory Face Detecting Time Attendance System and Access Door Lock (CVJB-G107) at the workplace.

The Tiny Spy Camcorder Clock

October 8th, 2009 by Ally in Cool Clocks, Home Gadgets, Spy Stuff

DVRClock_01_640x

There are all types of spy gadgets out there, the trick is finding the one that blends in the most with your style.  After all, if you have top of the line electronics everywhere, a cheap alarm clock is going to stand out.  If you have very sparse college room type furniture then a tissue box holder with a camera in it is probably going to raise some eyebrows.  Well this tiny clock is just one of the many ways you can spy on people while you’re away.

StressWatch tells you its time to relax

September 25th, 2009 by Mark R in Conceptual Gadgets, Cool Clocks

stresswatch-thumb-550x363-24764My source called the StressWatch “the mood ring of the 21st century”, but all I can say about it is that someone should have invented it a long time ago.

After all, we live in an age where people wake up at ungodly hours, go to demeaning jobs, come home to face family issues, and barely have time to wind down before they go to sleep. In short, we live in age where everyone is under stress. And if that doesn’t stress you out, then you don’t need the StressWatch.

As you can see from the pic, there is a black bar graph to show your stress levels. The blues and greens that you see there means that you are mellow, but pink, red or orange means you’re one stressed out fellow. I am going to assume that it reads your pulse, sweat from your wrist, or something.

Emily Alarm Clock hangs sideways

September 25th, 2009 by Ally in Cool Clocks, Home Gadgets

sideways-alarm-clock

Alright so this clock does look a touch different and it’s bound to get you some strange looks, but this has to be the most brilliant design I’ve seen lately.  Digital bedside clocks are always designed to be easily readable when you’re sitting up looking squarely at the clock, which is ridiculous once you think about it.  This clock is made so that you can easily read it while laying in bed on your side.

IXP3 Internet Messaging Clock brings IM to the air

September 18th, 2009 by Mark R in Cool Clocks, Miscellaneous Gadgets, PC Gadgets

IXP3internetmessagingclock_smallThe IXP3 Internet Messaging Clock uses a technology that I’ve seen before, but I’m not certain what the name of it is. It uses LEDs that can wave in the air and somehow make words with specially timed flashing. I’m probably not doing a good job describing it, I know.

If you’ve seen this technology before, then you know what I’m talking about. It can usually be used as some kind of clock or to display pre-programmed messages.

Why use this type of technology for something practical, like displaying Instant Messages. It can connect to any Internet router and allow users to send messages via email or the product website.

Limited edition Steampunk Nixie Clock

September 14th, 2009 by Ally in Cool Clocks

nixie32ex

For those of you that enjoy all that is steampunk, you’ll have a slight chance to get the clock shown here.  It’s definitely a slim chance, but if you have the cash and hurry, you might be able to get your hands on one.  Then you can tell everyone that you own a limited edition clock that practically no one else owns.  It’s always fun to have something to make you superior, plus it’s also nice that it tells the time.

Magnet Clock helps you keep track of your day

September 10th, 2009 by Ally in Conceptual Gadgets, Cool Clocks, Home Gadgets, Kitchen Gadgets

Magnet-Clock

Everyone has things that they enjoy putting on the fridge.  Be it school pictures or just random funny magnets, we all have our preferences.  Well with this you could even have a clock on your fridge that you can map out your day with.  It doesn’t itemize every little thing, but it does have little stick figure men that will illustrate each task you have ahead of you.  It does so in such a humorous way that even the most obnoxious tasks will give you a little laugh.
