Join Kolelinia 2.0: Travel by cables, no bike required
This is about the best still photo that I could think of to illustrate this next form of the Kolelinia.
Some of you may remember when we reported on the Kolelinia the first time. It is a concept device that allows bikes to travel above the streets with two cables. One cable is under the wheels, and the other is located just under the handlebars. This allows ordinary cyclists to bike on air.
Watch this video after the jump so you can see what is next for the Kolelinia. As you can see, no bike is involved. All that is necessary is to put this backpack-like device and then attach it to the cable-like roads.

Motorcyclists can see what’s behind them with the Reevu Helmet
I’ve never been a motorcycle rider, but I can imagine that it must be difficult to look behind you. The Reevu helmet is a unique piece of work that allows the rider to see in front of them and behind them at the same time.

Speech Bubble helmets is a true Cone of Silence
I’m not the kind who hangs in overcrowded bars, but that is because I don’t like all the noise. It isn’t like the movies where characters can carry on a distinct conversation. Not with all the music and other people’s conversations around, no way.
If you want to break through the great wall of white noise, then I suppose you could use these Speech Bubbles.
Designed by Edinburgh product design student Elaine McLuskey, these are two joined spheres that two people can wear to achieve some degree of quiet privacy in the midst of a loud public place.

The Dog Walker Dumbbells
Anyone that prefers walking with weights to get the most out of their walk would normally have a little bit of a balancing act if they’re going with their pet. Granted my dog yanks on the leash hard enough that it gives me a good enough work out that I don’t really feel the need to add to it. Those of you that have a calm dog, this Dog Leash Weight Set is a great way to make it easy to carry a weight and a leash.

Giving a child a little comforting light means using a little extra power within your home to keep a night light up and running. That is unless you happen to pick yourself up this very cute little elephant.
