Air guitar is a big thing but an even bigger musical hit is on the horizon. Omer Yosha has created an interesting, elegant interface that uses infrared sensors to control music applications he’s calling AirPiano. Similar in concept to the theremin but with many more advancements, the AirPiano allows any untalented schmuck to wiggle his fingers above the board to make sound.

This is done by a virtual matrix of keys and faders above the board, each assigned with MIDI messages and ready to be triggered at the whim of the user.  Once those MIDI messages have been triggered it then relays the positioning of your fingers to a computer via USB, where the preprogrammed AirPiano software converts it into sound, or if you’re talented, music.

The next time your girlfriend refuses to cook you breakfast, grab her by the throat, choke slam her like Hulk Hogan and tell her, “Go ahead, make my coffee.” She’ll roll her eyes and kick you in the nuts as you pretend to act like Clint did in “Dirty Harry”. Though you might not possess the same charisma as Mr. Eastwood, you can still feel like a trigger-happy badass with the Gun Mug.

Though it won’t help you carry out revenge, it’ll hold a hot, delicious cup of coffee. Made from porcelain and available in black or white finishes, the Gun Mug is a steal at $16. Ten bucks says some idiot finds out about this cup and tries to rob a bank with it.
