Knight Rider-themed GPS with authentic KITT voice

-


"Hello Michael, where do you want to go today?" The Knight Rider-themed GPS unit has voice prompts recorded by the one-and-only William Daniels, the original voice of KITT when powered up. The LCD display is also flanked by a series of red LEDs reminiscent of KITT's nose-mounted lights. Once the unit is available for sale, about $270 is all it'll take to get KITT in your KARR.

Air guitar, an ancient tradition for those of us who don’t actually know how to play a guitar, along with air drumming, air piano and I want to say air bass? Well thanks to this Kickstarter project that plans to turn your iPhone into an air guitar, your dreams of rocking out without actually knowing how to play a guitar may very well come true, assuming if the creators of the Air Guitar Move manages to raise $25,000 in the next 25 days. The Air Guitar Move is a combination of a motion sensing pick attached to the dock connector on your iPhone, along with an app that would allow you to rock out on your iPhone any time and anywhere. No word on how the app will function but for those who are interested you can head on down to their Kickstarter page and make your donations if you would like to see the device actually make it into your hands.

Word on the street is that Garmin's upcoming Nuvifone will actually be manufactured by ASUS. According to "industry sources" the two companies have been working on the device for the past two years. The sources further claim that the Nuvifone will be the first in a series handsets, with plans to roll out new models through 2010. Reporting that the interface was snappy, the screen is nice and big, and the UI appears to be very GPS-centric. They tried the QWERTY keypad which is "spacious enough" and uses an auto-complete dictionary. The main interface presents a row of icons for calling, searching, and mapping, and finger swipes stream them across the screen. Included apps, at least in this model, were SMS, Google Search, email, and media player.

Some say that PC case modding is a form of art, and if you were sitting on the fence requiring more concrete evidence, then surely even the TRON Lightcycle PC from Bods Mods is capable of swaying your mind. This is not a street legal version of the fantasy vehicle in the 3D blockbuster that was screened at the end of last year, as it measures just 40″ long (or should we say, short?), but underneath the hood you will find an ATX motherboard, liquid cooling, and a generous number of blue light strips. The designer actually started from scratch to custom build this unique PC chassis, using SketchUp, Google’s 3D modeling app, alongside tons of foam shaping and Dremel work. ( UberGizmo )
