I mean yes, having your own lightsaber is fun and all, but what about putting together your very own mini lightsaber? Better yet, what if your newly constructed lightsaber could tell you whether your child favors the light or dark side of the force?! Well, now you can, thanks to this bonafide dark side detector.

Personally, I feel like they should show a video of Anakin putting his first lightsaber together. Why didn’t Obi-Wan think of that before he started giving that crazy guy force lessons? Anyway, this mini lightsaber should ensure a fun filled afternoon of putting together electrical devices.

This little guy has it all, when you think about it. You get to teach your kid, or yourself, about the funa nd eductational side of Science Fiction. Then, once it is all put together, you get to reveal your child’s destiny as the blade turns red or blue. Granted, I’d be a little worried if it turned red, but at least you have a fifty-fifty shot, right?

For a fun afternoon, the kit comes in cheap at $14.99. It includes 5 lightsaber pieces, the lightsaber blade, 3 button cell batteries, and an educational manual to tell you what goes where.

I don’t think that I would, though, and he would probably want to be compensated for the service of getting your butt out of bed each morning. His snooze button would have to be a blaster shot or something. Darth Vader can also teach your kid about the power of pinching pennies as one of our 22 creative piggy bank designs.

People call this the UpperCup. It’s a project that is actually pretty damn interesting, as it’s an iPhone case capable of extending a cup holder where users can place their coffee cups so they can text using both hands. Just don’t try to put the phone away before taking the cup away, or you’ll be in for some burns.

If you think that this is a good idea, you might actually want to show up at their page IndieGoGo, where they are trying to raise the $25,000 required to fund this project. We wish them and you good luck in the endeavor, we can’t wait until we start seeing these everywhere.

Exogear has worked for a while trying to create a new power system that will prolong a gadget’s battery life indefinitely. as long as you’re carrying enough backups. This is the $90 Exovolt Plus, a gadget that contains a 5,200mA lithium polymer battery, powerful enough to recharge an iPad off of it. And just in case you need more juice, all you have to do is plug in one of the $50 sub-units with the same 5,200mA battery, but without the USB port. This means, as long as you have enough units, you could have unlimited power, the only limit being how many of them you can carry. Hmmm. Someone pass me my biggest backpack!

Continue Reading on Walyou]]> With the Summer coming on strong, many of us in less than stellar-shape look for ways to get back on the wagon in a hurry, Generally, this means eating better and going back to the gym at least every other day. Others, however, prefer a more unconventional approach, and there is no shortage of bizarre fitness ideas if that is the path you are looking to take. Here are some rather strange pieces of equipment that may or may not help you get into better shape.

Foldaway Armoire Gym

Going to the gym to workout is generally perceived as a pain in the butt for good reason. You have to get changed, drive there, fight off the gym rats to use the equipment you want, meanwhile you are often surrounded by juiced neanderthals grunting about a foot away from your face. You do have the option of throwing that away, however, with this foldaway armoire gym. Everything that you need to get a full body workout conveniently packed away into a piece of bed room furniture. The gym takes up about 40″ of wall space when opened and 28″ when folded away. Bring some help, though, since as you might expect, the gym weighs about 500 pounds. There are a variety of workouts available thanks to a complex system of pulleys and weights

.

Unlike your local Bowflex machine, though, cardio is an option too. The armoire gym includes an exercise bike so you can burn those calories pedaling to nowhere.

Upper Aerobic Exercise

Call me crazy, but this upper body aerobic exerciser seemingly looks a lot like the shake weight, that ridiculous piece of infomercial equipment that was debunked as a valid form of exercise. Still, there might be some benefit to this particular piece of equipment, and it certainly looks flashy. The idea here is that the two handgrips you see are surrounded by circular rings. A synthetic pulley is attaches them together. The user must then grip his or her hands on the handgrips and then hold it perpendicular to their chest. By rotating your hands in a cyclical motion, you produce an upper body workout. In theory, anyway. Each ring has teflon bearings embedded on them which ensures that they will glide effortlessly. The piece is designed to work your major muscle groups like the chest, biceps, and shoulder blades.

The Ergonomic GymGym Desk Chair

As a whole, those of us in the United States spend entirely too much time sitting in a chair. We sit at work while plugging away at the office, and we sit entirely too much at home watch the latest and greatest episode of Burn Notice. That latter part might be just me, but the point is we need to get moving. Thankfully, someone came up with an idea that allows us to combine sitting with getting some extra exercise. This ergonomic GymGym desk chair promises to help offset the deteriorating and increasingly sedentary lifestyle of your average office worker. According to the designer, this chair has been designed to help ward off inactivity and the ill effects that go along with it. The patented design does this through two technologies. The first is the seating structure, which has contour forming features that allow the chair to adjust to the body of the user, providing a comfortable fit while also strengthening and conditioning.

When you are ready to take a break from work, you can pull out a number of different workout attachments that can help exercise your muscles without ever leaving your seat. You can see a number of different exercise bands protruding from the chair, so you can workout your major upper body muscle groups via each one. These include bicep curls, chest exercises, and shoulders. Whether you want to start huffing and puffing while still in your shirt and tie, however, is another matter. I’d also love to see the look on your coworkers’ collective faces when you roll one of these bad boys into the office. They’ll think you have gone insane, or at the very least have a very expensive taste for chairs. Either way, it might not be feasible to get a workout in while sitting at the office for social reasons alone.

Continue Reading on Walyou]]> In a world where news about hackers, thieves, and terrorists are spreading every day, the need to protect our data, properties, and lives is more critical than ever. Biometric technology proves to be the most advanced security method available at the moment. Yet, they are much more accessible than we would like to believe.

GadgetHim introduces 15 impressive gadgets that incorporate fingerprint technology. They come as locks, safety boxes, wallets, and even USBs.

Intelligent Fingerprint E-Key

Italian designer Chiara Ripalti, probably fed up with being lost in a bunch of keys, decided to design a master key. The E-Key, as it is called, is a square device made up of a customized cover, an LED indicator, and a fingerprint cup. When you place your finger on the finger cup groove, a USB plug will jut out from the key. Insert the extended plug into your lock. The LED indicator on the key will then light up and the door will swing open.

Fingerprint Padlock’s Key

Mintass’ Mint Fingerprint padlock has not only a killer elegant look but also a smooth operating method. All you need to do is press the “READ” button, and then rub your index finger through the “Fingerprint Recognition screen”. After it identifies your fingerprint, the LED display on the upper part of the padlock glows green indicating that the lock is open.

Interpol Fingerprint Door Lock

Firstly, the Interpol biometric fingerprint door lock has nothing to do with International Criminal Police Organization – INTERPOL. It is a safe secure door lock that uses the owner’s unique fingerprint to unlock the door. If the ordinary locks are a pain in the ass when you lose the keys, or the high-end digital locks protected by passwords are annoying when you forget the passwords, all you have to worry about this Interpol fingerprint door lock is losing your fingerprint, which is unlikely to happen unless the thief cuts off your fingers or you die. Oops, did I scare you?

Fingerprint Door Lock and Deadbolt Lock

Another product utilizing biometric technology to secure our homes is the fingerprint door lock and deadbolt lock designed by Opulentitems. The door lock uses fingerprints and comes with a keypad, which can be set to store up to 50 fingerprints. It also has four keys  in case of emergency, and turns itself off when not in use. If you are interested in increasing security, then you should opt for the biometric deadbolt door lock,  which has a sliding piece of steel.

Fingerprint Door Lock with Remotes

This ultimate lazy man’s door lock features a fingerprint reader that lets you do away with the keys to your door with the swipe of your finger. If that wasn’t easy enough, this electronic door lock even comes with a remote that can be used to unlock or lock the door from a distance. The system can store up to 99 users that can be entered or deleted within seconds.

Fingerprint Car Immobilizer (Lock)

The fingerprint car immobilizer is an added security system installed inside  a car. It does not allow the car to start without fingerprint verification, even if the right key is used. The unit prevents the car from being used by non-authorized people while leaving your original (OEM) car security system remain intact.

Every fingerprint is stored in a power-independent flash memory, so it will never be lost due to power loss. It is safe enough for storing firearms, but it is not fire resistant.

Fingerprint iWallet

Despite its iName, iWallet is not an Apple related product but much cooler than that. With the fingerprint technology incorporated, iWallet is the best choice for the safety of your cash and important cards. More than that, iWallet body is made of Kevlar – a para-aramid synthetic fiber 5 times stronger than steel on an equal weight basis. It is also equipped with Bluetooth technology that can pair with your phone.

Marijuana ATM

There is a fingerprint reader to validate your identity, control the volume of marijuana you take a week, and keep the non-patients away.
