Oh my heavens, with new iPods due tomorrow, we’re gonna need a second Web site to cover all the related gadgetry LOL. All kidding aside, here’s another concept-design-dealie that gets a thumbs-up from me. (I’ve been all over these concepts lately.) Designed by a certain Victor Soto, iRing is a ring that you wear on your finger (where else would you wear a ring, silly?) that controls your iPod and iPhone. One more render inside.
But yeah, don’t get your hopes up on seeing it. Stinks, I know.
iRing Controls Your iPod [Yanko Design]
“I SIR AM AN AR-TEEST, I cannot be bothered with the technical details
Drawings pretty pictures on your MAC and making mock-ups is one thing. Making the thing work with todays tech is something else.
Might as well have included a personal teleport insde the ring.
This was an entrant into one of Gizmodo’s past contests… I think it was the “Made in Eureka” contest where every entry must be an invention/concept.
Whenever you said LOL in your blog post, it sent a chill up my spine.
wow
this is an awsome idea
the next ipod would obviously have to have bluetooth for this to be a good idea since ppl dont like having the bluetooth adapter on their ipods now
but ya amazing
and ipod with stereo bluetooth would be awsome anyway
another way for apple to sell accesories
GOD – It was way too early for me to find this. I sat and thought it was real for 5 minutes or so before I went &*$&#@($#*
Great idea though!
OK, well I have not time or knowledge to develop a patent so here it goes. Take that ring, and put an accelerometer in it. Use the accelerometer to control the iAnything with gestures. Skip the tiny buttons. Send me a check if you use this idea.
