Digital Pill Box Uses the Net to Help the Highly Medicated

The Med-eMonitor System is an internet-enabled digital pill box that costs $60 per month to use. Sound like a waste? It shouldn’t, because older folks with medical conditions can have upwards of 20 different pills to take per day and the slightest mistake could be fatal. The Med-eMonitor is fully programmable and will beep when…

NicStics: Safe, Uncool Cigarettes

Are safe cigarettes an oxymoron? Apparently not, if the people behind the NicStic are to be believed. It’s a battery-powered cigarette that vaporizes tobacco rather than burning it (much like the Volcano), delivering sweet, sweet nicotine without any tar or any of that other bad stuff. https://gizmodo.com/the-ultimate-stoner-gadget-hands-on-the-volcano-herb-v-232962 It seems like a great way to help…

Ultreo Toothbrush Uses Ultrasound Waves to Kill Teeth Goblins

The $150 Ultreo toothbrush is a bit different than that $1.99 jobber you scrub the hooker’s spit off your teeth everyday morning. This toothbrush uses a combination of ultrasound waveguide technology and precisely tuned sonic bristle action to keep those pearly whites white. Usually I don’t say this about crazy products, but I am kind…

HairMax Laser Comb Gets FDA Approval

Wow. And I always thought the FDA were pretty stubborn regarding shooting lasers into your brain-area. If you remember, almost two years ago we first told you about the HairMax laser comb. This $700 comb was able to improve hair quality and thickness by shooting freaking laser beams into your head. Back then it was…

Video Games Improve Your Sight; Chen Has X-ray Vision

Finally, kids have another excuse to stay inside and play video games when it’s a nice day outside besides “hand-eye coordination.” Apparently video games, specifically “action games” like Unreal Tournament, improve vision by up to 20%. Eat that, carrots. Researchers at the University of Rochester tested both Unreal Tournament and Tetris, with Tetris doing basically…

Next-Gen Stethoscopes Include iPod Dock

From a design and functionality standpoint I am going to have to strongly disagree with this idea. Attaching an iPod dock to a stethoscope for heartbeat recording and playback is not the most efficient way of getting the task at hand accomplished. Why not slap on a flash drive that will record the sounds directly…
