FLYBi Drone with VR Goggles is Insanely Awesome
FLYBi Drone takes the RC flying experience to next level of awesomeness! It’s a drone that houses a 1080P HD camera under the hood and gives you the ability to control the camera through Head-Tracking FPV Goggles, sounds pretty badass idea to me! The basic idea was already around since several years, it’s just no one could think of embedding a VR tech in a quad-copter to experience the world like a bird.
The feed is transmitted from the drone to the goggles in real time through a separate transmitter which makes it more efficient in tracking head movement and filming side by side. Not just that, the Flybi drone will return to the takeoff point or Helideck in case the battery runs out. And thanks to the automated system for swapping old batteries with the fresh ones, Flybi can change the batteries itself while resting on the Helideck.
It also features active obstacle avoidance sensor for safer flights, water-proof wrist wearable controller with active 1.8-in display, on-board WiFi, memory, and An intuitive FLYBi app that enables you to set a flight path for the drone, waypoints to hover and take incredible shots…
The drone wouldn’t leave you behind if you set it to “Follow me”, it will film you when you’re on the move. More like Hexo+ Flying Drone I guess. For more accuracy and to avoid disorientation, FLYBi gimbal rotates only 55 degrees but there are drones that offer360 degrees rotation already. Head over to the Indiegogo Campaign to choose a perk, starting from $495!

Sphero Star Wars BB8 App-Enabled Droid Toy
The cute little astromech droid BB8 got everyone’s attention right after its first appearance rolling across a desert in “Star Wars: The Force Awakens” trailer. The whole internet’s also been abuzz with the awesome little Star Wars BB8 Droid ever since. So, the good news is, the same company that made Ollie A.K.A Sphero 2B has come up with a real life BB8 App-Enabled Droid Toy and I bet it’s the droid you’re looking for!
The toy is very easy to steer, can roll across any plain surface or do something like exploring a galaxy!…Wait. What?
Yes! The most interesting feature in this toy is the Autonomous Behaviour and Adaptive Personality that makes it unique among all the other robot toys ever made. Autonomous Behaviour makes this toy a king of itself. It will essentially roam about and occasionally send bleeps when it’s excited or fearful.
You can also set a track and watch the droid Patrol the area for you. The Adaptive Personality feature will change the behavior of BB8 as you play with it. It may show you a range of expressions or even light up upon voice commands. Quite Adorable!
You may also create, send or communicate through Virtual Holographic Videos within app. The range of features circle around smart tech used by the smart people at Sphero. The Gyroscopic Propulsion gives it enough push to roll on any plain surface while the internal mechanism is made to ensure the upright position even when its coming down from a slope or you’re just picking it up to look at it.
The BB8 battery gets wirelessly charged through wireless Induction Charging Base. Connects to your iPhone/iPad/Android device (See list of Compatible Devices Here) via Bluetooth and works around 30 meters of range.
Since the head is just another piece of magnetic sorcery, its internal guidance system including gyroscope and accelerometer keeps the toy oriented and in the same direction as you drive BB8 around. Checkout the video to see BB8 Droid in action. [Also Available in Europe] -

HandyCase Turns iPhone Back into Transparent Touchscreen
Handscape.Inc is a startup company at Silicon Valley, CA. They have built up a case called HandyCase for iPhone & iPad (Limited Models). Handycase is not just another protective case, it’s a case with a touch handling interface that allows you to operate the iDevice from behind or seamlessly interact with the apps in 3D world.
It can also mean that your screen is now transparent because you can see your hand through the screen Virtual Version of hands though). HandyCase is completely wireless and connects to your iDevice via Bluetooth. The project also confirms the availability of HandyCase’s support for gaming engines such as Cocos2d-x, Cocos3d and Unity3d. That’s quite a lot of gaming platforms a developer need for development of 3D Games on iOS. App Developers can now explore a whole new level of possibilities and boundless creativity in both creating games and apps. The most noticeable feature is that the tech is not bulky and it gets the power from it’s own battery source (800mAH pre-production units).
During the current phase of development it only allows the HandScape iOS App that includes in-app camera, web browser, photoviewer, book reader, map, keyboard, and some games to interact with the touch handling interface. It doesn’t simply work on every app out there unless you implement Handscape IOS SDK! Yet the case is quite promising and genuinely innovative.
Sorry to Android users but don’t lose hope. In fact, HandyCase was first designed using Android technology. So, you’ll have Android version of HandyCase in very near future. Back the project Now!
HandyCase is available for iPhone 6, iPhone 6s, iPhone 6 Plus, iPhone 6s Plus, iPad Mini 1, 2 & 3, iPad Air 2, and iPad Pro.

iPhone 6S and 6S Plus Announced with 3D Touch, Live Photos, 12 MP Camera and 4k Video
The coolest thing in the successor of iPhone 6 is by far 3D Touch Display. It is designed to sense the pressure of touch a user applies to the touch interface and activate or focus on different triggers e.g., Animate a photo (Live Photos), Previewing a hyperlink in emails/SMS apps (Peek & Pop), interact with apps from home screen with subtle taps and a lot more. iPhone 6S has a 4.7″ Retina HD Display and iPhone 6S Plus has a 5.5″ Retina HD Display. They both get a A9 Chip, Touch ID with Advanced Security, Faster LTE, Faster Wi-Fi and a solid hardware underneath the shiny form factor.
3D Touch would essentially allow a lot of new interactions both on home screen and inside apps (both native and third party). For instance, if you want to get the directions to your home, you may simply Tap and Press Map from Home Screen and drag your finger to “Directions Home”. This would essentially eliminate the need to open the app and select most of the basic functions we normally use (Quick Action). Moreover, when you read Emails/SMS etc you may simply tap and put pressure on hyper-links to have a Peek into the URLs. This action will open in app safari pop up window (Peek & Pop). In case you want to stick to the opened link page just put more pressure and you’re on it.
In addition to the regular stills of 12 Megapixels, now you can also shoot 4k videos and zoom in without any pixelation issues because you’ll have enough resolution to do so.
The front cam gets an upgrade to take Selfies with 5 MP resolution. Most importantly, this upgrade is combined with a new “Retina Flash” feature that promises to take great selfies in low light situations. BTW, folks around the world show have already started discussion on this feature. Some of them say it’s a nice and some of them claim it’s already been around since LG announced G3. Well, who cares it’s an Apple thing now, Homie!
Being the same at the exterior level from its predecessor, the interior of iPhone 6S and 6S Plus gets 70 percent faster at CPU tasks and 90 faster at GPU tasks as they say. iPhone 6S and 6S Plus may open more productive ways for you to perform your most frequent tasks. Will be available around the World on September 25.

10 Most Interesting Inventions of Recent Times
About three centuries ago since science revolution, technology has never disappointed us. Yes, you can spare lethal arms which served destructive purposes more than peaceful. Here’s a list of 10 most interesting inventions in recent time.
The Square
The Square is simply a credit card reader that lets you execute online payment in a second just by swiping your credit card onto it. No need of computer, laptop or any bulky device. Just your phone, sitting in a bus for example, and here you go.
The UNO, A One-wheel Motorbike
It is probably the best invention in minimal and compact transportation arena, though not the very first. We’d talked about RYNO Micro Bike before too. The UNO uses gyro technology to maintain the balance. It’s an ebike and starts accelerating when you lean forward.
Biomimicry
Humans have always inspired by nature to invent different things. Shinkansen is a Japanese bullet train and an example of biomimicry. The nose of the train took its shape from the beak of Kingfisher bird. It reduced two things miraculously, noise and friction.
Self-Sufficient Eco Skyscraper
Bahrain built world’s first skyscraper to be fully powered by wind turbines. This is Bahrain World Trade Center, the twin towers, which are powered by wind turbine technology, not by expensive electricity produced by oil and gas. This new trend is widely appreciated in the Middle East.
Electric Cars
No gasoline, no money. That’s a cool idea, thanks to the electric cars invention. We know Tesla Model S has gained a name for that already in the US. We need to incorporate more green technology in order to save our environment from pollution.
Shark Tank
Aspirant entrepreneurs try to materialize their ideas in this superb reality show ‘Shark Tank’. Five sharks, the giants of their respective fields who themselves were once trying to turn their ideas to life, listen to the ideas of entrepreneurs. If an entrepreneur succeeds to convince a single shark for investing, others start bidding and the price of investment drives up, madly. You can assume this as an offline version of Kickstarter.
Jetman
Yves Rossy is the inventor of the Jetman, a human-plane. He connected a small jet engine to the carbon wings and flew over Dubai. (No, not like This).
GPS Tracking in Vehicles
It’s been years since we’ve seeing new cars featuring GPS technology. However, it’s worth it to be mentioned in top 10 technological inventions. Drivers can track and navigate using GPS technology and modern day cars are offering a plenty of other smart uses and features. Insurance companies these days are also utilizing the inclusive recording of drivers’ behaviors to modify their insurance policies.
Watermill – Turning Air into Water
Canadian based bottled water company Element Four has invented Watermill that’ll Turn Air Into Water. It’ll cost 3 cents for a liter. They’ll provide it to those people living in water deficient areas or countries. This water producer machine is portable and eco-friendly and turns air into water when temperature is saturated with enough water vapors it needs to condense.
Moving House
This looks like an alien armor ship but it’s not. It is a big Moving House powered by solar energy. It has a bedroom, kitchen, toilet and a staircase. A fair system of collecting rainwater and use it for different purposes is also a stark feature of this portable house. You can see it moving like a robot in the streets of Cambridgeshire, England.
