Sharkoon X-Tactic SR Gaming Headset



Gamers can be quite a fussy bunch, especially those who are at the top of the hierarchy. They want nothing less than the best hardware to go along with their skills, and that comes across as no surprise since it is human nature to feel that way. Well, if you are interested in gaming headsets and currently pondering just which model suits your ears (and favorite game) best, perhaps you would do well to consider what the Sharkoon X-Tactic SR gaming headset offers on the table.

CompuExpert has just announced the Sharkoon X-Tactic SR that will ship this coming August 16th in North America as an Amazon.com exclusive. Sharkoon has already picked up accolades in the past for their specially designed gaming headsets, so the Sharkoon X-Tactic SR gaming headset is going to be another potential feather in its cap down the road. Touted to deliver the ultimate in multi-directional audio performance for maximum immersion and combat advantage, the X-Tactic SR is not going to weigh down your ears, letting you play in comfort for hours on end.

To put it in a nutshell, you will be able to hear explosions, commands as well as other kinds of audio quality that the game’s developer intended you to experience it thanks to the Sound Control Unit (SCU) alongside the new 3D Sound Expander. The X-Tactic SR will boast of Dolby Digital 5.1, Dolby Pro Logic II and Dolby Headphone support, resulting in entirely new sound dimensions which enables you to hear enemies approach from just about any direction – letting you respond in advance before they know it. Not only that, you can connect to a second headset with the 3.5mm jack, letting up to enjoy excellent surround sound simultaneously.

The Sharkoon X-Tactic SR gaming headset will be compatible with the PS3, Xbox 360, PC or tablets – basically any other device that has a 3.5mm jack, and has an in-line volume controller that allows you to configure your personal sound. A cushioned headband, individually adjustable, padded cups and a flexible, detachable microphone rounds off the list of features. Since it runs off USB power, you need not worry about toting an additional charger or batteries.

Expect Amazon to carry the Sharkoon X-Tactic SR for $139.99.

Change your bike’s gears, with your mind

Image
Lately, I have been teaching my son to ride a bicycle, and it reminds me of my days of awkward bike riding. I remember that I had a hard time with changing the gears, but what if I could do it with my mind? Parlee Cycles is apparently working on a concept bicycle made of carbon fiber that does just that. It is part of Toyota Prius Projects, and it uses a helmet equipped with neurotransmitters to read a wearer’s brainwaves. A wireless transmitter attached to the bike’s seat post gets the signal, and changes the gear. As you might of guessed, this is still a concept. In fact, the developer hasn’t quite got the brain control working and still using a smartphone for the controls. I have heard of neuro-controls being used before, but I am guessing the technology isn’t quite as good as Bluetooth. Still, I am wondering if putting a brain control on a bike’s gears is putting too much technology where it doesn’t belong. If we are going to electronically make a way for a

Wi-Fi Connected Power Strip

Image
If you are like me, you have “that desk” in your house that is sort of the hub for digital information. On the desk is a laptop or desktop computer, and all kinds of accessories. Chances are, all of these devices are plugged in to a power strip, and they are a source of great power consumption on your monthly electric bill. This power strip by Japan-based Ubiquitous is the iRemoTap, and it has a built-in Wi-Fi module. The purpose of the Wi-Fi is so it can send information to connected devices in the household. The iRemoTap can automatically send out some sort of message like an email or tweet so you know how much energy that you are consuming. In fact, you can program this thing for a preset level, so you can make energy goals and hopefully keep them. I guess you will have to know what levels your devices have, of course. I don’t really know that off the top of my head. So is this the wave of the future? All of us knowing how much power we consume and making

iMM514 ArtStation Pro

Image
I’ve seen some products from iLuv before, and the iMM514 ArtStation Pro is good for turning an iPad into a home theater. As you can see, the iPad is mounted in an articulated swiveling arm so you can position it at whatever angle you want, in landscape or portrait mode. In case you are wondering why there is such a big base, it is because it has a huge stereo speaker. In other words, this base has bass. There is also a wireless remote for volume and skipping tracks, and it looks like there are some controls on the base for when you lose the remote. As I mentioned before, iLuv has put out a lot of Apple accessories, and I will have to admit that this is one of the most unusual that I have seen. In fact, I am not even sure what kind of aesthetic that this is. The arm thing reminds me of Technic Lego pieces. I suppose the case is like a big Lego brick without and studs on it. Nice. By the way, this isn’t just for the iPad. The iMM514 ArtStation Pro is compatible
