The Rollertoaster

The Rollertoaster is the newest of innovations to come to your kitchen. It is a combination of a toaster oven and a pizza oven. You simply feed your bread through one end and within seconds toast comes out the other end to drop onto a warming plate.
Front Door Opener
I was carrying in a load of groceries the other day and didn’t have a spare hand free to unlock the front door. Locca has developed a remote system that allows you to unlock the door from a distance just like your car or garage door. The Pouch Mug at Catching Fireflies

We don't usually use a saucer with our morning mug of tea. Instead, the tea bag finds itself on the side of our breakfast plate, steeping in the cup too long, sitting in the sink, or, on particularly bleary mornings, making stains on our wood counter top. All to prevent the need to wash one more dish or make an extra trip to the garbage. Not a problem with the pouch mug.

Digitus - Beautiful Watch Ring Concept

This beautiful piece of jewelry is a concept by Charles Windlin, an industrial, interaction and 3D modeling designer from Winterthur, Switzerland.
The display on the ring will show you the current time, your personal calendar and can “act as jewelry with morphing patterns that reacts to your input.”

It’s a common issue, you get out of a hot shower, dry off, get dressed and look in the mirror only to see it all fogged up. I’ll save you the scientific explanation of why this happens as I trust you already know. Now if only there were a convenient way to rid yourself of this layer of moisture.
Sure, you could wipe your towel across it, but that never works that well. You could plug in the blow dryer, and that would actually work pretty well. However, wouldn’t it be easier to go out to your car, steal one of the windshield wipers and use that on the mirror? No? What if you had a windshield wiper attached to the mirror? That would work quite well.
