Looking forward to green gadgets in 2010
I recently came across various links show casing the future of technology products. These products not only substantiated the importance of green in the coming future but also demonstrated that the resources are being directed to bring about such innovations.
That the green is being taken seriously! This is obviously something to be happy about. Ingenious innovative concepts that are eco friendly – what is not there to support?
Out of the long list of products that interested me, I am posting here a couple of concepts that I think stand a high chance of massive scalability in the coming future. An impressive idea of Turbine light which is going to be a part of the Greener Gadgets conference at New York City attracted my attention the most. The concept harnesses the power from the wind of the rushing cars to light up the roads. You will be getting more details about the concept during the conference which is scheduled on 25th February 2010. The conference has an interesting panel of presenters and has an interesting Design Competition which chose 10 entries on the basis of innovation and the eco-friendliness. The winners will be selected on the basis of public voting. So do check out the link and vote for the best innovative design!
Another design that excites me and seems nicely structured for a high scale expansion is the solar powered case for mobile electronics which apart from having the sine qua non of a green device, also has the sleek look, flexibility (can be charged using a regular supply also) and protective design providing support to the device. The product is reasonably priced at $32.99. It is actually a bargain looking at the comfort (see the product details!) that the product provides.
Another interesting set of products which were released during CES 2010 are here.
There are some really interesting threads that post about the contemporary green innovation across the globe. Some of the links are here, here and here. Do check them out!
