Future Gadgets

Project ARA is an initiative by Google that aims to develop a free, open hardware platform for creating highly modular smartphones.
Google says Project Ara is “designed exclusively for 6 billion people,” but it’s not clear who the real target is for the modular smartphone platform initiative.
Liberation from component vendors
Call it a Lego phone, a modular phone, a DYI phone, or a totally customizable phone. Project Ara is breaking a smartphone into modular pieces, giving people opportunity to build custom phones.
Time magazine, which conducted an extensive interview with members of the Project Ara team, called the platform something that “permits hot-swapping of modules, without requiring you to power down the phone — which means that you could slide out the camera and replace it with a battery whenever you needed a little extra juice.

Google has captured a lot of attention so far with Project Ara. The idea of being able to buy modules to incrementally upgrade your phone could reduce a lot of unnecessary costs and waste associated with having the latest and greatest in smartphone technology.

Pencil Printer
Pencil Printer created by designer Hoyoung Lee is not only for printing text, but also for its erasure. If you have scraps of pencils and eraser and a great desire to save paper and thus save the forest, then this concept is for you. Quite unusual eco concept. The printer has two “exits”. First one is for printed pages, the other one theoretically is for blank pages. The trick in this concept is to use graphite extracted from scraps of ordinary pencils instead of toner.
