Disappearing car doors can make the difference! 6 Dec 2010 9:28 AM (14 years ago)
People use different methods to get noticed like showing off an expensive cell phone, throwing awesome parties, getting well dressed at all times and the list goes on but checkout this car concept which requires you to do nothing while showing off; an automatic way to get noticed.
Imagine a situation where you don’t have to open up your car doors rather they disappear on pressing of a button just like an automatic car door window coming down. The advantage is two fold; first, you can even park your car very near the other parked cars since you don’t require large door opening space any more, second, you get out with an ease without hassling with the door.

Pirata Boat game has been created by ‘Pirata London’ and features to use iPhone/iPod Touch as a remote to play the game right on your PC screens. It is a virtual boat race game in which 5 persons can board a single boat and race with other contestants. The iPhone/iPod Touch is to be used to row the oars. That certainly reminds us of a Wiimote.The gaming activity produces a strange gesture of the players unless someone knows they are actually playing a game. The game application can be downloaded for free and then can be synced to iPhone or an iPod Touch. Overall, the new concept is quite impressive and I can imagine that’s the beginning only; in future we hope to see games featuring the use of iPhone/iPod Touch as a remote for gaming on PC.
