What has cult TV cartoon series The Simpsons has to do with cycling? Nothing. What has the iconic pink donut in the The Simpsons got to do with cycling? Nothing either. However, that does not make the The Simpsons x State Bicycle Co. Limited Edition Accessories, a collaboration between State and Twentieth Century Fox Consumer Products (FCP) and The Simpsons, any less desirable. In fact, I thought the collection of hats, backpack, apparels, and bicycle/cycling accessories, are oddly attractive. It could be the pink donut(s) that decorated the various merchandises that makes them so irresistible. In a gender-stereotyping way of looking at it, pink is not quite the color for dudes, but pink donut(s) on the other hand makes all the difference. Continue reading State Bicycle Co. Teamed Up With The Simpsons Some Donut-ish Accessories

Oh Look, Atari Is Going To Make Hats With Integrated Bluetooth Speakers
Atari must have known that there’s no way it is going to kick any of the video game console big three’s butts (but it is going to get into the game anyways). So, the once popular video game console maker has embarked on a new business plan: making wearable tech and the seemingly nondescript hat you see here is the first of such products under its “Atari Connected Life” line. Dubbed Speakerhat, the product is literally what it says it is: a hat with built-in speakers. From the front, or any angle other than under view of the bill, you won’t be able to tell it is in fact a hat with speakers. The speakers are powered by Audiowear and as you can see, it appears to be super thin. Continue reading Oh Look, Atari Is Going To Make Hats With Integrated Bluetooth Speakers
Google Granted Patent For Video Camera-equipped Hat. Wait, What?!
It makes sense to want to integrate Augmented Reality on glasses, but a video camera on the bill of an otherwise ordinary hat? Now, that sounds kind of goofy, but that doesn’t stop Internet search giant, Google, from going ahead and hat it patented. And guess what? They actually got it (the patent) and why the hell not? Because, who in the world would patent a hat with a video camera stuck to the bill? I don’t know. Maybe, Google? According to a report, Google managed to secure the patent on Tuesday (February 28, 2017) for a removable hat-mounted camera (officially “Wearable camera systems”). What the camera can do needs no further elaboration. Continue reading Google Granted Patent For Video Camera-equipped Hat. Wait, What?!
Snappies Ditched Plastic For Leather, Made Snapback Hats Look Uber Classy
Snapback hat. It is either you are for or against it. Personally, I am not for snapbacks. Seriously, that crummy, plastic thingy is super ugly and that’s not to mention, it is totally uncomfy when you wear the hat backwards. Amazingly, despite the obvious shortfall, snapback hat’s design hasn’t changed much at all for like, forever. Even some expensive designer labels used cheap plastic for the snapback, which is kind of a reap off considering how much designer hats cost. But thanks to the righteousness in humanity, someone stood up and decided that enough is enough, and it is time for a change. And that change is known as Snappies Hats (or just Snappies). Continue reading Snappies Ditched Plastic For Leather, Made Snapback Hats Look Uber Classy

Reebok CHECKLIGHT
breaking an arm or a leg in a game of sports is a norm. we are not saying that it should happen, but if it happens, it happens. it is not going to take away your life or anything like that. you recover and you pick up the game again. but we can’t say the same for head injuries, which could often lead to permanent damage, long term inconveniences and even death. scary eh? so when it comes to contact sports, an innovative solution like the Reebok CHECKLIGHT could be a savior. it is a head gear that you can be worn under the football helmet (or without if you are in the game of basketball) and the built in sensors continuously measure the impacts to the wearer’s head, providing coaches, trainers, parents and athletes critical information on the damage. if the integrated light is green means everything is a ok, while yellow indicates moderate impact and when the light lit up red, you know it is time to hit the bench. but do not confused with the dark amber blinking light which happens to be telling you that this little guy is low on juice. Continue reading Reebok CHECKLIGHT
Cynaps – a Cap with Bluetooth Bone Conduction Headset
Cynaps is billed as the world’s first Bluetooth-enabled headset that utilizes bone conduction, discreetly installed into a cap, to transmit audio to your inner ear. in layman terms, it basically uses vibration to make this possible but as to how clear it is or whether it will even achieve the targeted audio transmission is anybody’s guess. anyway, the story goes that with the Cynaps installed in your cap, it serves the same purpose like any regular Bluetooth headsets out there. meaning you can make and take calls, listen to your audio when paired with your Bluetooth-enabled smartphone Continue reading Cynaps – a Cap with Bluetooth Bone Conduction Headset
