Wear your emotions on your butt


2:00 PM on 09.28.2012



The makers of the highly successful product, Necomimi have a new product, and it has got me a bit weirded out. Neurowear unveiled the new brainwave controlled Shippo, a catlike tail that is worn on your backside, and like Necomimi, moves according to your brainwaves. They have stepped up the product by adding app support, and allows users to geotag their emotions and locations, allowing people to find spots that make other people happy, sad, or in heat.

I'm not sure how the different emotions are recognized, but the whole thing is just creepy to me. Isn't the small of the back a weird place to wear such a device? I also wonder if you can wear the tail alongside your set of ears. It looks like emotional privacy is a thing of the past. Just make sure to clean well after using the toilet.

Microsoft: Xbox One not always-online...just every day

You'd think they'd get this sort of thing out of the way back when they announced it, but mere days before E3, Microsoft has finally shed some light on the burning policy questions hounding their upcoming Xbox One console. In...

Major Kusanagi fights the future with Microsoft gear

Man, I've been wanting a Microsoft Surface RT Pro for a while now. I'm pretty entertained by my iPad, but the tablet's use of its Wacom pen, looks like manga drawing heaven. Sure, it'd probably end up in my unused pile of ga...

Casio G-Shock watches are tough cookies

Back in college I used to always sport Casio G-Shock watches. Tons of variety, tough as nails, and stylish for their time. Well, their looks haven't updated much and my love affair with brand fell off a bit. When I do see th...

Shocker: Xbox One will be region-locked

If it can be said that last week's Xbox One reveal didn't exactly meet many gaming enthusiasts' expectations, it seems that recent news has taken the opposite tack, in that our newly lowered - and in some cases negative ...

Say Hello to the Xbox One

No, not the first Xbox, or the Xbox 360. The third of Microsoft's consoles has opted to dial down its numbering by three hundred fifty-nine while dialing up its hardware. And it's called the "Xbox One", which means that...

Make sure your Japanese beer doesn't forget its top

Call me old fashioned, but I come the school of thought where a carefully poured beer doesn't have much of a head on it. In fact, when you have a huge head on a beer, it can often mean it's low quality, or been poured by a t...

Who says you have to sit up to watch TV?

Sitting up to watch TV or gaze at the world is just so passe nowadays. Laying completely flat, in a half vegetative state is the new hotness... didn't you hear? Check out these new glasses over at Tha...
