E-Paper Music Score: Listening To The Sweet Sounds Of Technology

One crappy thing about being a professional musician in a classical orchestra is all of the masses of sheet music you have to lug around with you from venue to venue, and practice to practice. A new concept called EMS, or E-Paper Music Score, uses E-technology to make the music movable.

Made of a single flexible screen, EMS can be rolled and unrolled for great portability, with Bluetooth streaming your sheet music from a computer directly to the device. An included foot pedal lets your “turn the page” hands-free, with the next page of the score loading automatically. — Andrew Dobrow

Bodybuilding with your mouse

Not sure if you have ever heard of EMS (electrical muscle stimulation), it’s basically using an external electrical source to stimulate your muscles to work, hence mimicking the very act of working out. Not sure if it works, and not sure how well it works. Anyway, some Japanese company is combining this with your mouse, so you would have EMS powered over USB, you may also change the work-out mode with the accessory buttons on your mouse. Who wants to go to the gym anymore? You can pick up one of these in Japan for 52USD today. –Sam Chan
