Low-Cost Multi-point Interactive Whiteboards Using the Wiimote
Since the Wiimote can track sources of infrared (IR) light, you can track pens that have an IR led in the tip. By pointing a wiimote at a projection screen or LCD display, you can create very low-cost interactive whiteboards or tablet displays. Since the Wiimote can track upto 4 points, multiple pens can be used.
Invisible Cellphone Headset
New York Times reports on Motorola’s H9 Miniblue headset, for use with cellphones equipped with Bluetooth wireless technology, is so small that it resembles a large hearing aid, with everything fitting inside the ear. It lacks the little boom microphone jutting mouthward that many Bluetooth headsets have, and it more easily hides under hair.

product description
Be confidential. Be confident.
Babble is the only voice privacy device currently on the market that offers voice confidentiality during a phone conversation. It camouflages conversations about rash decisions, or discussions about rashes. Babble accomplishes this by using a pre-recorded script of the user’s voice, which is “babbled” and emitted from proprietary speakers positioned outward from the user. The “babbled” voice provides cover, making a phone conversation unintelligible to individuals surrounding the user. “White noise” simply masks overall interior sound, Babble “babbles” the users voice keeping private phone conversations private.
- Contributes to increased productivity, allowing the user to have confidential telephone conversations at their workstation, where their computer and files are located.
Babble system includes base unit and two speakers.
- Can be used phone free (cellular or cordless phone) or with a landline phone.
