Nike Dunk Wi-Fi Sneakers

This may be a fashion and tech marriage overboard but until WiFi detection devices become a thing of the past, I wouldn’t say that this WiFi detection sneakers is not “fashionable”.

The idea was simple. Nike gets a WiFi detector, installs it in the flap of Nike shoes, connects the device to LEDs and then names it WiFi Nike Dunks. You got now one hell of a shoe that truly kicks! This snooping device can detect WiFi signal of up to 50 meters far. The LEDs blinks if the signal is low and it lights up continuously once the signal is at maximum.

Clearly, this ASDR (A Step in the Right Direction) shoe may not be as trendy as it may first appear but, undeniably the concept is head-turning.

Perhaps a net-addicted yuppie will love this, or your gamer buddy who has their brains stuck to his WoW character no matter where he goes. What's good about this is that there is no need to pull out your gadget every time you want to check a spot for connectivity. Just wear it, look down to your feet and there you’ll know if the suppose HotSpot is really hot!

Nooka Watches - Glow in the Dark

Photobucket

This news is truly a time-stealer! Our favourite brand of watch, Nooka overhauled its Zub watch to give it a Glow in the Dark finish. The classy Zub series even got more hyped and funky as the company replaced its strap with a special luminous light emitting material.

Zub’s unique and abstract manner of time-telling using changing LED bars to tell time is of course still there, but the Glow in the Dark finish more than compliments the original design. So if anybody would tell you that these Nooka watches are bold, daring, fashion forward and futuristic – they surely aren’t lying.

Now what’s with the hype and the apparent royalty of this new watch? Well primarily, since this watch was made to honour the successful Glow in the Dark Tour featuring Kanye West, N*E*R*D, Lupe Fiasco and Rihanna, it should really be something special. The watches were given to the artists and few people behind the concert after the show in Las Vegas. There are only 15 pieces of this special edition watch made, so you currently have no choice but to wait your time to have one of these. But if artist Kayne West already has one and since a lot of people are already talking about it, what’s stopping Nooka from releasing it to the public?
