Glow: The First Smart Headphones with Laser Light

Aha, came across another interesting project on Kickstarter. This one is simply called Glow. It is actually a pair of headphones that pulses with laser light according to the music you are playing and you can even control the subtlety of the lighting and which notifications. Interesting idea.

You can even reply to messages etc using their app.

Go check it out on their page on Kickstarter - here.

Beam: The smart projector that fits in any light socket

Heck, it has been too long since I posted anything of interest in this blog. So here is what I am going to do - pick up interesting stuff that I find elsewhere and share them here. Hey, easy. Don't have to think or wrack my brains to write up stuff.

Kickstarter. An interesting site which helps in crowd-funding of projects started by ordinary people. When browsing the site, came across this very interesting project called Beam - it is a projector that can fit in a light bulb socket. No, not the type here in India but at least the type in the US - the screw type. Don't worry, we'll find some jugaad to fix that when it is produced.

You can either screw in this small projector into the bulb socket or use a wire and place it on it's side and project it on the wall. Very interesting idea and since it is always connected to the internet, you can even project a game that you are playing with a friend on your phone.
