The Online BodyTrace eScale

Friday, June 26th, 2009

BodyTrace realized that people need a carrot to lose weight, and a pretty good carrot is the shame of showing that you actually regained the weight you lost online. In comes the eScale, a surprisingly stylish scale connected to the internet, posting your progress (or failure, let’s be realistic) online. The scale costs $119 (including a 3 month subscription of the online service) and then $19.99 per quarter.

So, besides looking at fancy graphs and what-not you get to form groups with friends and family to follow and the website makes suggestions for eating and working out.

Leopard: The Robotic Office Chair

Wednesday, June 24th, 2009

Leopard is a highly advanced office chair straight from Japan now actually available for real (the concept has been around for a while). Basically it uses unpowered robot technology inspired by the basic principles of human anatomy to sink by 25° when you sit down in it, and rise up as you lean forward. Besides promising awesome comfyness this means that it’ll adjust itself behind your back and wrap around your bum when you lean back (imagine being held in someone’s arms) and then even give you a little push when you want to get up.

Oki and Okamura will sell this chair, meaning it’ll probably show up for us Westerners as well soon, and it’ll be available with both black and white frames. Leather will set you back about $2,500, fabric about $2,100.

I’m just getting ready to head off to my folk’s place to celebrate Christmas and I couldn’t find a more suiting product to write about than another Art. Lebedev Studio creation; SHAR-404. A set of six hand-painted glass camouflage balls for the X-mas tree. That’s subtle tree decoration if any.

Anyway, Merry Christmas everyone!
