In these days wall mounted flat-screen TV’s are more and more popular and affordable. A lot of people buy them, because they look good mounted on the wall, and they also save space. Inca is in the business of helping you decide what to do with your flat panel. Their newest creation is the P/N 900810-5A-WPS “Off the Wall” unit. At the press of a button, you can bring your TV out from the wall and rotate it to the most desired viewing position. With the touch of a button, you can also initiate automatic commands that reverse motions, from any position, to bring the fl at-screen back to the wall. Based on a swivel and pull-out, the TV Mount is controlled by remote. The system features a recessed box and cable management, so your wall will be clutter-free of wires. If you have adjoining rooms where you might want, say, to view your kitchen TV in the dining room, you’ll get plenty of good use from the swivel feature. If you are interested in this system you can check out Inca’s site for the Motorized Wall-Mounted Pullout and Swivel System and some of their other creative pull-down and lifting ideas. - Via

Earlier this month I’ve presented the Vitamin I.V. Plant Pot an interesting and good looking self watering plant pot. Today I’ve discovered something more extreme, a very geeky and sophisticated plant pot named Pet Plant and designed by Junyi Heo. This plant pot is for those of you who are so busy that they might need a reminder to keep their plants alive. In a few words this concept plants pot shows us how the plants truly feel. The very sleek looking pot measures soil conditions, temperature, humidity, and water calculates those variables based on the need of said plant, and expresses its condition via a series of pictograms on an LCD display. The plant pot will be able to download via an USB interface from a computer all the information about a rose, herb, …whatever, and tell you exactly what the plant needs. Finally the design looks cute, but if every single thing from our house will be depended on electricity our planet, and budget will have to suffer a lot. - Via

Technology in these days changes everything, even faster that we can imagine. For example a new amazing technology has the potential to turn just about any surface, including your walls, into a speaker. Johns Hopkins materials scientist Michaely Yu and his team have made a rubbery plastic-based material that could help place piezoelectric devices in previously impractical areas, including your walls. Personally I can’t even imagine how this technology can work, but for those of you who want to know more about this new technology you can take a look at the patent application of this new technology. - Via 1, 2
