As it turns out, all that flying you’ve been doing with your dog in tow could kinda be killing the little guy inside. Literally. As it turns out, dogs are susceptible to hypoxia just like us humans. 4 Paws Aviation created the Supplemental Oxygen Supply Hood to supply your pooch with an adequate amount of oxygen to keep your pet breathing regularly. And while I’m about 90% sure that the animal pictured above is a stuffed animal (whether it was... Continue reading

Look, I’m not what you might call a hipster, unless sitting around in your pajamas all day is considered hip these days. But I do like to get a little flashy when I get all dolled up to go out. Slip a digit into one of the four World Landmark Rings, which bear the idol of the Leaning Tower, Big Ben, the Eiffel Tower and the Space Needle. Wear all four at once if you desire. They also looks like... Continue reading

Reading at night. Since children, we’ve enjoyed this ritual of waiting for the lights to go out then grabbing a flashlight and a book to read. But what about us older people who don’t have to worry about getting caught being up late but instead would like to read in the dark. After all, it feels great to pass out after reading a chapter of a new novel. Enter the Super Slim LED Page Light. For $25, you’ll never be... Continue reading

While enjoying my European adventure I saw the renowned Jedi Master Yoda in Madrid’s historic Plaza Mayor. Apparently, Yoda’s fallen on hard times since filming the Star Wars movies and now he’s resorted to begging for money from tourists in Spain. It was cool seeing my favorite sci-fi hero in the flesh, but I’d rather have a chance to get up close and personal with a hottie like Princess Leia or Queen Amidala. I hear Natalie Portman’s single again, so... Continue reading

Unlike so many... Continue reading

What up everybody. This cool Lego creation is a model of Amsterdam’s Schiphol Airport that I spotted when I landed in Europe yesterday morning. Thanks to the folks at Eurail and various tourism ministries, I’m here on a ten day trip through Portugal, Spain, and Amsterdam. While I’m traveling, in addition to all the regular Gearfuse goodness, expect weekend updates on the hottest street art, design, and high tech goodies from across the pond. It’s going to be awesome.

Everyone has dreamed of traveling to space at one time or another. The problem is, no one wants to spend a fortune forcing themselves into a marriage just so they can get into space. So the finest Japanese minds are collectively collaborating the construction of an elevator into space. This vision has spurred the inspiration of many scientists around the world as well as government organizations such as NASA. Now, several separate projects have launched and it has become a...

Microsoft claims that come September 9th, you can kiss laser goodbye. Everyone was quite confused as to what Microsoft meant, that is until this picture of the mystery product that would put laser in its place showed up on Amazon’s Germany site. It’s called the Blue Track and it allegedly uses a blue LED teamed up with a wide-angle lens for better tracking on more surfaces than laser and optical are capable of. Hey, I’m all for improved tracking and... Continue reading

What if the time traveling DeLorean broke down just as Marty McFly was about to reach 88 MPH? According to this $19 t-shirt design, he’d have to take the time traveling bus. Or he could settle for a hike through time on that hoverboard of his, though he wouldn’t get far. Link (via)

In the future, cars will move very, very fast. It’s a damn shame our puny little minds will never develop the reflexes and reaction time to operate them manually. So instead, we’ll just slap high tech computers to the engines that’ll automatically drive the car at intensely high speeds for us. This concept design by Iman Maghsoudi is said to be like any other car. The driver will have total control during low speed travels but once you make the... Continue reading
