Smart Water UgMO's sprinkler monitor knows when your lawn is running dry. It uses buried wireless sensors to transmit moisture readings from the soil to a base station, which adjusts the watering schedule.
Some things are just ... better.
Hydroelectric Music This water-pressure-powered radio runs off the flow from your shower. When connected between the showerhead and a handheld hose, it channels water through an internal turbine, which drives a generator that plays your tunes.
iGlasses Transform an iPhone or iPod Touch into a 3-D ViewMaster. Hasbro's goggles work with a suite of free apps to place you on a tourable pier in L.A. or deep inside a shark tank. A wall in the goggles makes sure each eye sees only the image meant for it.
3-D Phone The first smartphone available in the U.S. to display 3-D without glasses, the LG Thrill can also capture 3-D video and five-megapixel stills with its dual-lens camera. Its LCD has a thinly striped barrier to direct separate images to each eye.
Audio for Video Nikon's plug-in stereo mic filters out in-camera sounds, such as the whir of an autofocus motor, from your DSLR video. It cuts noise with a series of vibration-dampening gaskets. citypageskuwait.com
POV Pocket Racer Get the car-eye view from a camera in the hood of new Hot Wheels racecars. These 1:64-scale models capture up to 12 minutes of YouTube-ready video. Play it back on a one-inch LCD on the lower chassis, or transfer it via USB.
