The
large and clunky electronic fish finding equipment of the past which
looked more like a bad prop from the Dr Who set, has been replaced with
this incredibly clever and compact device. Taking the form of a wrist
watch, the sonar sensor unit operates within a 75 meter radius and
scans ocean depths of 120 meters. The floating sensor attaches to your
fishing line and transmits the images of the fish onto the LCD screen
on the wrist unit in real time. Like something out of Star Trek, the
wrist watch is the command center controlling functions such as the
fish proximity alarm, sensitivity level, depth range, and fish
identifier. With 400 hours of battery life under its belt, there's no
excuse to let the big one get away.
Unwrapping a gift can often be a frenzy brought on by the anticipation of what's contained inside. The crew at Suck U.K have changed all that.

We’ve all had that uneasy feeling when faced with the task of unplugging a cable amongst a sea of cables. Ok, maybe that’s a bit of an overreaction, but the point is that if you have more than two cables plugged into a power strip and you cannot see where the cables begin, you have less than a 50/50 chance of unplugging the correct item. Not very good odds. Sternform Produktdesign out of Hamburg, Germany has come to the rescue with the design of the Cable ID. This product is a true marriage of form and function. Its helix shape and labeling area allows for you to properly secure and identify the cord with the item in which you intend to unplug. This product is reusable and will save you plenty of headaches. by Isla Verde

The
plot of a book, play or film should contain compelling storylines to
garner any attention. Likewise, the objects used in a space to define
it or enhance it should possess a gripping plot. Studio Frederik Roije
brings these cool anodised aluminum storage shelves fittingly named
"Storylines" to the masses. These shelves are available in six
colors and two dimensions and we would like to be the first ones to say
that the plot has definitely thickened in the story of shelving
options. by Isla Verde
Forget indoor gym classes, the trend-obsessed Brazilians of the leisure class have introduced the world's first outdoor spin class on wheels. Taking the concept of exercise to new levels, this totally modified fitness bus has 16 bikes, as well as a dressing room, a fridge, and a sound system. The
bus is connected to a GPS system to avoid getting caught in traffic
jams. The entire point of going to the beach in Brazil is to show off your body to the entire world, even if you are pushing 60, and now the Bus Bike can take you straight from your workout to your beach cabana on Ipanema.(via Springwise)
What
a world we live in. We can stop hair loss, improve weight loss, and now
perfect the art of 'pet loss' or rather 'lost pet'. The new PET TRACKING SYSTEM pet collar is the revolutionary way to find a lost pet through the use of 4 satellite systems and a simple SMS/ GMS message.
Here's
the deal. Fido has been watching too many Lassie re-runs and is lost
..again! Rather than send the whole town out looking for him, you
simply call the telephone number of the particular pet collar. The
satellite antenna on top of the collar then zones in on any number of
signals from at least 4 satellites, the collar then sends the location
of the lost pet back to you using the GSM & SMS network on your
phone. It's precise within 15 meters of the lost pet even across
continents! "Hi master, I wandered off to the Antarctic, take a
left at the first iceberg and come get me". After the pet is returned
safely, violins begin to play and the Lassie videos get thrown in the
bin. All's well that ends well. by Andy G
