But this concept (and its related patents from three countries) called the Mobile Living Platform takes the modular idea to almost absurd levels. Their base processor integrates with a camera, bike system (with light), exercise tracker, portable television, browsing device, funky electronic belt, pocket piano and game system. We're not sure that pieced-together gadgets are the future, but you have to admit, these guys have a Vision. And if you're going modular, you might as well go all out. [Mobile Living Platform]

In other words, when we reconfigure a device, it reminds us of how much fun we had (and still have) with Legos and other building toys. The folks at OObject have put together a list of 14 modular gadgets and concepts—like Bug Labs, the Modu cellphone and, of course, the International Space Station. Hit the link to check out the rest of the list. [OObject]
