RoboStool Is The Stalker You’ve Always Wanted

This robot may not be well versed enough in sports to partake in Robot Soccer, but it’s certainly lazy enough to be a sports fan. With three different modes of control: universal remote, beacon navigation, and thermal sensor following, the RoboStool tries its best to find you, so it can take the weight off your feet or die trying.

Labeled as furniture on demand, the RoboStool was created by Norris Labs, which was kind enough to post schematics to build your very own RoboStool.  You could have it eerily stalk your guests, unwilling to let anyone take a seat without having a comfortable footrest, but you’ll probably turn it into something that can make drinks, like a robot bartender.

Personal Drug Den: $100,000 Plastic Egg

Filed under: Home Entertainment

For nearly $100,000, you’d expect one hell of a multimedia experience from a personal multimedia dome. It promises complete isolation, “brown-note bass” to induce shitting and the ability to roll around. You’ll be able to get the interior styled however you like if you’re a leather daddy and can get a video game console installed as well.

With a price tag like this, you’re probably better off dropping $1000 for a weekend at the W or a spa. Need complete isolation all the time? See a fucking doctor, you weirdo.

Briefcase Seat Gives The While Collar Type Yet Another Place To Sit

Filed under: Design, Misc. Gadgets

You’d think that your average white collar cubicle warrior would be hellbent on actually standing up and moving around when he’s not tied down to his office chair, but apparently, office workers just like to sit! The Briefcase Seat design from artists Joan Korbes and Denis Oudendijk provides cubicle workers a place to sit after their long day of, um… sitting?

Made using a standard briefcase, with a set of nylon straps crafted onto its body, the Briefcase Seat can be slung over any sturdy railing to provide a semi-comfortable seating arrangement for the time being. Or, you know, they could always just stand up for once. Kind of a bummer that there’s no toilet integration.

Lay Down Wherever The Hell You Want To Lay Down

Filed under: Design, Wearables

When you cruise around a city, sometimes you don’t feel like you want to go home just yet, but wouldn’t mind taking a little rest. When the city is packed, it’s a constant stream of bumping and jarring. Just let me find a spot to lay down. Wait. Oh, that’s right. Every thing’s made of concrete.

This interesting outfit design provides you with all you need for a comfortable chill spot, integrated right into your clothes. The cushioning might look pretty ridiculous, but comfort takes sacrifice. I’d much rather wear pajamas then a tuxedo to formal parties, but that’s how it is. — Andrew Dobrow
