I know we’ve been bringing a lot of news about bike lights, and I had promised myself I’d stop for a while. That was until I saw the Lazer Urbanize , a helmet with integrated lamps that not only has the word Lazer in its name (made even more awesome by using a “z”), but that looks as if it was styled by Tron, with the influence of the original 1980s Cylons and Buck Rogers thrown in. In short, it is the coolest helmet ever . The Urbanize can be had without lights, too, but where’s the fun in that? Front and back LEDs are integrated, although sadly they don’t scan and pulse, KITT-style, and as you’d guess from the battery requirement of a CR2032 cell…

Flat Pack Armadillo Helmet Is Flat, Possibly Useless
By Evan Ackerman Bicycle helmets are a useless inconvenience every single moment of their existence except for that one super important one when they protect you from death (or such less punishment). Part of the problem is their shape, which (while a predefined inevitability) is not an efficient use of space. The Tatoo helmet (that comes from...

Amazing Spokeless Bike Built as Student Project
A team of students at Yale decided to build a spokeless bike for their mechanical design class. One semester later, they had the machine you see here. The students concentrated on the rear wheel, for reasons of both time and money. The back wheel is where all the work goes on anyway, so if it worked, then the front wheel would be easy. The back...

Honda Bicycle Simulator: easy as riding a bike
Don’t you think that the best way to learn how to ride a bike might be to just go ride a bike? Apparently, Honda Motors thinks that folks in Japan need a simulator — like a flight simulator for bikes. The Honda Bicycle Simulator will be available in Japan in November. The price is unknown at this time, but it won’t be cheap. Not...

Amazing Software Turns Cheap Webcam Into Instant 3D Scanner
It’s called ProFORMA, or Probabilistic Feature-based On-line Rapid Model Acquisition, but it is way cooler than it sounds. The software, written by a team headed by Qui Pan, a student at the Department of Engineering at Cambridge University in England, turns a regular, cheap webcam into a 3D scanner. Normally, scanning in 3D requires purpose-made... 
Video: Butterfly born in space flaps its wings in zero G
That little guy you see up above is a butterfly in a case. Sure, sure, nothing too special about that, right? Well, guess again — that butterfly is on the International Space Station. In space . The experiment is being run by BioServe Space Technologies and the University of Colorado, and students have been following the Painted Lady butterfly’s...

City Lights Globe mysteriously turns, shows night and day
Approaching Earth from an alien spacecraft, it might be hard to tell if this rock is inhabited during the daytime. Not so at night, where the place is lit up like a Christmas tree, and this Discovery City Lights Globe gives you an accurate representation of that. Using an electronic induction system, it seems to float above its base, slowly turning...

Moritz Waldemeyer loves lights. Having worked with the likes of Hussein Chalayan and Ron Arad (such as developing Arad’s famous Lolita chandelier ) and designed LED suits for U2 and OK Go , Waldemeyer is something of the go-to guy when you want digital haute design. He was recently challenged by Wallpaper , one of our favorite design-porn...

Gratuitous Space Battles officially blows up thousands of space ships
If I’d known Gratuitous Space Battles was going live this week, I would have adjusted the wallet threat level upwards. You know how the space combat scenes in Battlestar Galactica were terrible and epic and oddly serene, all at once? This game is like that. It has lovely graphics, a lot of depth, an alarming amount of replayability, and...

Honda Bike Simulator Designed For Safety Training, Not For The Extremely Lazy
By Andrew Liszewski So I guess Japan is really serious about bicycle safety, so much so that Honda developed this bicycle safety simulator that allows riders of all ages to learn proper traffic rules and manners before they get on the road. The simulator includes different courses and scenarios like “going to school” or “going...

Gyrobike’s Gyrowheel stabilizes a kid’s first bike without the training wheels
Being the fine physical specimens that we are, even from an early age, we of course had little trouble learning how to ride a bike without external help, but we’re sure **some hapless child out there will welcome the Gyrowheel as salvation from the embarrassment of training wheels. The 12-inch wheel (a 16-inch version is in the works) replaces...
