Bino Grip Controller

I've designed this controller looking at a pair of Bushnell binoculars. The grips are vulcanized rubber over plastic and they open and close letting you adjust the piece for your hand size and finger lenght specs. Traditional controller design has grips that sit in your palms but little many players know; you mostly use your fingertips to stabilize the controller in your hand thus the short and small grips of a dualshock controller

Projector on a Laptop

Computex is going on in Taipei. I didn't go this year, quite bummed about it; this show is usually a great venue for unique and innovative stuff coming out from Taiwan. I've spotted this Asus laptop on the web for example. It has a built in projector which is certainly a trend that will pick up in years to come.

Touch Turntables


Keeping up with traditional DJing has been tough on me as vinyl gets pretty expensive especially if you want all the new stuff. I've messed with Serrato which let's me use my digital music and regular turntables to mix them but this new concept created by a student named Scott Hobbs in Dundee Univ. would be cooler to have. While he is working on to make the product marketable you can go to his design site and drool.

Behold! The Metal Gear Headset

It's in production and it is on shelves by the game launch on June 12th.


Been working with contacts over at Konami and manufacturers in Asia to develop the licensed Metal Gear accessories for several months now. You are looking at the Solid Works renderings of the licensed headset which is being mass manufactured right now and will be available at game launch for $59.99.


It's a 2.0 Bluetooth headset with built in battery for PS3 as and it will also sync up with other BT compatible handsets.

- 8 hrs talk time

- 160 hrs standby

- 30' range

- Auto shut off

- Auto sync



I like the XBox360 headset. I like it because it's a solid gaming headset; I like the silicone loop; it's comfortable to wear. I like the oversized speaker cover with soft foam that sits on your ear rather than going in it to collect your ear wax. Industrial design was inspired by one of the MGS4 gizmos that Snake will use to gather intel in the game. It's the extension of his Solid Eye system where he can peek at his enemies with this camera on wheels. If you have a solid eye, notice this headset and go buy it in June.

Apple Tablet Concept

It's no secret that Apple will soon take a stab in bringing back the tablet computer. I don't know if the tablet will look like my giant iPhone concept above but we should be certain of some things already:
- It will utilize multi-toch interface and utilize many iPhonesque functions and more
- It will have a Solid State drive and no moving parts
- It'll be light as a feather

I kind of wish it to be this extra widescreen UMPC style tablet which should be roughly the size of a full size laptop keyboard. What do you think Mr. Ive?
