Age of the MotoCar

Following in the footsteps of companies like LIT Motors, the Volkswagen AERROW concept vehicle marries the benefits of both the car and motorcycle into a one-person urban commuter. Powered by a TDI-Hybridmotor, it’s more efficient and aerodynamic like a motorcycle. But, its completely enclosed cabin and extra room for cargo make it akin to a car. Electric gyroscopes keep the vehicle balanced at stop lights and even during accidents!

Open Your Mouth And Say… Ah!

Posted: 13 Aug 2013 02:22 AM PDT

The non-fuss E-spatula is a primary examination device that a doctor uses to depress your tongue and peek inside your throat. This clever gadget integrates the spatula, light, and thermometer and takes the patient's temperature in just one procedure. The device includes a disposable tip, which is a single-use transparent silicone shell. This helps maintain hygine.

  • Traditionally the spatula needs to be used with a separate light, which is troublesome.
  • The central light on the spatula activates automatically when the spatula is pressed on the tongue.
  • The detecting point at the tip tells the temperature automatically, and the value is shown on the LED screen synchronously.
  • The replaceable shell is thin for sensitivity to temperature, and it is elastic to facilitate easy replacement.
  • It can be recycled.
  • A storage base for the implement contains replacement shells.
  • A new shell is put on the spatula when it is inserted into the base.
  • It slides out from the side.

E-spatula is a 2012 red dot award: design concept winner.

Direct Power

Posted: 13 Aug 2013 01:01 AM PDT

The Parenting-Battery is a twist to the numerous battery concepts we have seen here on Yanko Design. It basically houses two pencil cells that can be collectively used as one battery. Moreover you can directly recharge the cell thanks to the embedded socket plug. Looks to be a bit complicated to function, but you get the drift, right? The idea is to prolong the useful life of the battery and stay within the eco-friendly parameters.

Stealth Chic

Posted: 13 Aug 2013 12:01 AM PDT

The Stealth light’s simplistic form is achieved by laser-cutting and folding a single sheet of super-strong and lightweight perspex. Mountable on the wall or ceiling, its sleek, barely-there aesthetic will garner compliments without overpowering a room.

A simple way to make crushed ice

Posted: 13 Aug 2013 12:01 AM PDT

Fine crushed ice is reserved for those with a fancy in-door refrigerator dispenser, right? Wrong! This hand-held ice crusher works by manually twisting each end to activate the internal crushing components. Small enough to throw in a drawer, now anyone can have flaky ice to add an aesthetic and textural effect to beverages!
