FOKI: The Shoes That Clean The Floor
After a long day of hard work, sometimes it seems coming home is yet another time to get busy working. Even though you're off work, the work that awaits you at home can be even more important. Dishes have to be cleaned, beds have to be made and floors have to be vacuumed. It's all a part of our d ...
LED Throwies: Colorful Holiday Lights For Geeks!
I've always liked LED throwies, and with the holiday season upon us, I thought it was appropriate to write about them since they are, of course, the geekiest little lights ever! In case you are unfamiliar with what an LED throwie is, it's basically just an LED attached to a magnet and a battery. A ...
Hour Glass Traffic Lights: New Digitalized Ancient Approach
By the sound of it, there certainly seems to be a wave of new designs for pretty much everything that we encounter in our everyday life. With a mindset that nothing is ever finished being designed, there are people out there that constantly refine, invent and redefine our future in the most awesome ...
Counting Finger Ring Lets You Count Money… Really Fast!
There you are, stuck at home with nothing to do. You have tried to spend some time playing the newest XBox game, but you own its butt so it soon becomes boring and just another round of butt kickin'. You decide that maybe the kitchen needs a bit of cleaning, and you head off in that direction. How ...
A LED Watch or a Watch with Prime Numbers? Take Your Pick!
Fashion is something that both men and women are more conscious of these days. We all know people that are very particular about what they wear. What I like about the present time is that no one needs to follow trends, unlike the 80s and the 90s where everything was dictated. Now we can choose cl ...
Design: Steampunk Lights With An Important Message
These liquid lights are so inspiring on so many different levels. Tanya Clarke created them to remind us about how precious water is, and how we need to protect this natural resource.
Can you tell what they are made from by looking at them? Probably not. They are designed from recycled plumbin ...
The Hanko Watch: Tells Time with LED Technology!
Technology is now being embraced in the fashion world. Back in the old days, watches were simple. You know, they had a square or a round face with the numbers 1 through 12, and 2 hands that told us the hour and the minutes. But now, watches have evolved to fit the lifestyle of the people who wear ...
LED Shoe Laces: Bring The Light To The Club!
If I remember correctly, I am sure I have seen this before, like 15-20 years ago during the '80s. Back then it was more of a color and not LEDs. It was some kind of fluorescent color that if put in bright light, soaked it up and then later shined for a number of minutes. They were more like neon ...
Creative Use of LED on a Cyclist’s Backpack
With the rise in gasoline prices and people wanting to save money, more and more are riding their bikes to work. Also, so many people that want to get fit, but don't want to go hiking or running, resort to bike riding. I know my BFF Diana loves riding her bike for exercise.
However, riding a bicy ...
Equinox Clock: The Brightest Time Teller For Any Geek!
Time is one of the most important resources in anyone's life. Depending on the situation, it can be good or bad, and it can either be too much or too little. Time really has it all when you think about it. It defines everything and nothing. Everything we do depends on it, and we tend to measure ...
Geek Gear: LED Light Switch Times Your Lights And Saves Energy!
We have covered a couple of geeky light switches here on Bit Rebels, but there is always room for one more, especially when it's so cool and geeky that you actually get two or three things in one product. As geeks, we no longer settle for just an ordinary light switch that lets us turn on and off t ...
Conway Mathematical Game of Life: Interactive with LEDs
There is a chance that this may be the geekiest thing you've read all week. The wonderful people at Evil Mad Scientist Laboratories created this humongous interactive Game Of Life.
According to makezine, "Each group of 8 lights has its own circuit board and ATmega164P microcontroller, and infrar ...
The Interactive Social Tea Mug That Gives Back
There is a ton of really cool social networking gear out there for anyone to delve into. Usually they are products that set aside all the profits for the designer and developer of the thing itself. Of course, this is all good since I am sure we wouldn't have any jobs available if everyone started ...
The Coffee Table Any Geek Would Love!
Sometimes it can be hard for an über geek to fashion his or her living quarters in the perfect way to deliver the statement that they are just that, a geek. Going to IKEA won't do it really. Looking for geeky stuff at the local interior design store won't work either. There's way too much "fashio ...
Homemade Space Helmet Breaks All Boundaries!
We're in the middle of the space age, and we break boundaries every day. We travel farther into space and glance ever deeper at the planets and stars out there only to understand where we came from, and where we are headed. Some people stay positive that we'll one day travel to those distant world ...
