Gear Factor

With the exception of a handful of companies still managing to make money by charging people for Wi-Fi access in public places, pretty much everyone wants wireless to be free — or at least cheap enough to feel free. With that in mind, a gadget maker named Julian Bleeker has designed the WiFi.Bedouin. With a built-in 802.11b wireless access point, this backpack lets users share data, music, and other content over small areas. However, this design doesn’t include an Internet connection, so it’s only good for local sharing, which means it’s not likely to serve as a legitimate hotspot alternative for anyone who actually needs to get real work done while traveling.

Solar Powered Cell Phone Charger, SOLIO Universal Portable Cell Phone Charger

Solioâ„¢, the Universal “Hybrid” Charger is powerful enough to charge all of your handheld electronic products at home or on the move, anywhere under the sun.Solio is a Hybrid because it can accept power from either the sun or the wall storing this energy within Solio’s internal rechargeable battery. Solio then uses this energy to power your gadgets at the same rate as your wall adapter. Solio will also hold its charge for up to a year.

Solio limits your need to purchase and carry around multiple chargers and is your one stop charging solution for all of your products from cell phones and iPods, to digital cameras, game players, and GPS.

OScar - Reinvent Mobility - Home

It is the goal of the OScar Project to develop a car according to Open Source principles. In our opinion, a car is not a vehicle full of high-tech gadgets. Instead, we are looking for a simple and functional concept to spread mobility. Form follows function.Apart from that, OScar is not just a car. It is about new ways of mobility and the spreading of the Open Source idea in the real (physical) world. On this website, you will find a great community of developers and drivers who want to invent mobility anew and together.

The project started in 1999. In December 2005, it reached release 0.2. Starting in 2006, everyone is welcome to participate.

Balloon homepage

Balloon should be viewed as a versatile ‘computer component’. Most projects need their own bit of hardware or IO. Balloon means you can concentrate on that part and add it on to the base Balloon. Balloon has the CPU, RAM, NOR and NAND Flash, serial, USB client/host/OTG, I2C, Compact Flash, IO header, buffered expansion bus, simple 8-bit bus, and a CPLD or FPGA. It is particularly suitable for battery-powered devices, wearable computing, low-power instrument monitoring, robotic control and university or corporate research needing physically small, lightweight (<30g), low-power(<1W), high-performance computing.

Zeroprestige was an experiment in open source hardware i was involved in while a student at MIT. The principle characters were Eric Wilhelm, Tim Anderson, and myself, Saul Griffith, with frequent genius and CAD help from Axel Killian.

AMD Geode LX800/LX700 SBC with PCI bus, 100Mb Ethernet, Flash Disk, LCD, Touchscreen and Audio

The CM-iGLX packs up-to-date 2006 technologies into the most compact, lightweight PC-on-module available in the market. Its on-board resources suffice to smoothly run operating systems such as Linux and Windows XP / CE, while it is just as small as a credit card and can run on a battery. These, in addition to the module’s low cost, make it an ideal building block for any embedded application.The feature set of the CM-iGLX combines a 32-bit X86-compatible CPU, DDR, Flash Disk and vital computing peripherals. For embedded applications, the CM-iGLX provides a 32-bit PCI bus, 100Mbit Ethernet, serial ports, general purpose I/O lines and many other essential functions. The user interface is supported by an enhanced graphics controller, touchscreen, USB interface for keyboard / mouse and Audio system. An integrated WLAN (WiFi) interface implements 802.11g industry standard wireless connectivity.

The standardized CAMI (”CompuLab’s Aggregated Module Interface”) connectors of the CM-iGLX module allow interchangeability with other Computer-On-Module’s available from CompuLab, enabling the flexibility required in a dynamic market where application requirements can change rapidly.
