#

This week, in things I could get d.o.w.n with… The Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas had no shortage of go-get-em gadgets, despite a slow down in sales over the past year. One thing is for sure, techies have been a dreamin! Top 5 new tech toys…

Fujifilm X-Pro 1.
Fujifilm’s X-Pro1 mirrorless ILC (interchangeable lens camera). A unique sensor with colour filters over the pixels and the three interchangeable lenses: an 18mm f2, a 35mm f1.4 and a 60mm f2.4 (28mm, 50mm and 90mm). Click it. 

OLED TV by LG.
4mm thick, virtually bezel-less. Organic light-emitting diode television. Light as a feather, stiff as a screen.

 


Chaotic Moon Labs’ Board of Awesomeness.
Motorized longboard controlled by a combination of Kinect and a Samsung Windows 8 tablet. It uses video, voice, gestures, accelerometers, and localization data to anticipate the rider’s intentions and accelerate or slow down. 32 mph. Ride Out. 



The EXODesk by EXOPC.
40-inch touchscreen display that rests flat on the surface of your desk, and hooks up to your Windows or Mac computer. Interact with your computer or let it standalone. Like a keyboard, or chess board or well… it’s up to you, two. 

 
MakerBot.
MakerBot Replicator 3D Printer. 2 colors. 3D printing. Legit.
