TRTL BOT Pad 2 case with The Shell


Whenever someone purchases a new device such as an Android smartphone or a shiny iPad 2, surely he or she would also be enticed by the person at the sales counter to pick up some sort of protective case – it is only natural to do so. After all, why risk scratching your latest purchase, or even worse, what if you happen to suffer from a particularly bad case of butterfingers that day and drop the iPad 2 onto a concrete floor with a thud? It might be made out of some tough stuff, but that does not mean it is exempt from cracks and scratches either.

All of that will definitely drive you to fork out even more money for a case, and this is where another dilemma begins – just which model do you pick up out of the hundreds of cases out there? Seems that it took you long enough to decide on the kind of tablet to get, and now you have to scratch your head one more time to figure out the kind of case you’re going to keep it company with. Well, TRTL BOT has an interesting solution for you – by rolling out The Shell, which is actually a clever combination of iPad 2 protective casing, multimedia viewing stand-easy grip handle, home button protector, volume enhancer and carrying tote.

Specially designed to be part of the iPad 2 accessory life, The Shell will merge the functionality of many different accessories into a single device – hence bringing new meaning to the words “multifunctional case”. Among some of the innovations crammed into The Shell include a multipurpose handle that allows you to tote around the iPad 2 in a jiffy, while doubling up as a multimedia stand so that you can watch your favorite videos or type via a Bluetooth keyboard comfortably without introducing even more cramps to your already beleaguered hands.

There is also a child-friendly retractable home button protector to make sure that all apps and settings will remain safe whenever you share your iPad with your family. Not only that, a Volume Enhancer feature is built into its design that will redirect the speaker output forward so that your ears will be able to enjoy a far more immersive experience.

Nice to know TRTL BOT has a heart for the environment, as this California-manufactured accessory relies on non-toxic recycled plastic which is BPA free and dishwasher safe, and you can pick up The Shell in Charcoal Black, Arctic White and Grass Green for $50 in an exclusive pre-order price through October 20th. When launched, it will retail for $65 apiece.

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
