Car Interior Preheater

With winter’s chill headed our way in select countries, it goes without saying that keeping warm is one of the priorities this season – and doing so in style is an even better idea. Well, for those of us who do not have the luxury of a heated garage, parking our cars outside of our houses without any form of heating could prove to be torture to get into, especially during those super cold mornings. Enter the $119.95 Car Interior Preheater – where this programmable heater is capable of helping defrost your automobile’s windshield, while making sure the interior warms up before you even open the door and drop your bottom on the seat.

This is a battery-powered device which can be recharged, and will not draw power from the car as it can also be set to automatically turn on up to 20 minutes before you enter the car. A couple of heat vents will tilt 180º in order to direct the hot air onto the windshield, or to send it throughout the car. Resting on the dashboard, there is virtually no need for any installation. It juices up in just four hours – making it a winter essential.

Bionic contact lens sends emails right to your eyes

I myself am still rather apprehensive when it comes to wearing a pair of contact lenses, as I still feel that there is something in there which I just need to remove. I guess it will take some time to get used to it compared to those who have worn contacts since time immemorial, but here is a cool idea – what if the contact lens of the future is injected with technology that we never would have thought existed? I’m talking about a pair of bionic contact lens that is capable of projecting emails before your very eyes. Yes sir, the whole idea of this particular pair of contact lenses is to stream real-time information right to the front of your eyes, and initial tests in animal trials have proved successful according to the scientists behind the project. Imagine wearing your contact lens and reading floating texts as well as e-mails that fly into your inbox without missing a beat, or perhaps even augmenting your sight using computer-generated images just like in the movie Terminator.
