The smart phone users simply scan the bar codes of products because the products are not physically on the shelves, as are photographs. The supermarket is called Homeplus (Tesco) and is the second string of the Asian country and offers 500 items, ready to be purchased in its new "store" that is located in the station located in Seoul Seolleung. After scanning products, a home delivery service is giving the compardor in 24 hours.

"You place an order when you go to work in the morning and can see the items delivered at home when you come home at night," said a spokeswoman for Homeplus.

In fact, consumers don’t have to be anywhere near the virtual store.

You simply scan the bottle’s barcode with the Homeplus app. The products are delivered later to home or office.

Currently, only Android smartphone users will be able to use the service that launched last week. Not that Homeplus hasn’t made an app iPhone, it’s just Steve Jobs and Co. hasn’t approved it yet.

This is the work of ecological scooter a French designer named Antoine Fritsch and has used bamboo to be a lightweight, durable and environmentally friendly. The t2o has an electric motor that allows him to reach a speed of 35 km / h and an autonomy of 40 km per charge.


the 't20' bamboo bike is a prototype by french designer antoine fritsch as part of an ongoing
research project to investigate themes exploring changing behaviors related to sustainable development.
although the body is made out of bamboo, other elements include cork, steel, aluminum and rubber.
surprisingly, the small motor, which is hidden under the footrest, can reach a cruising speed of
35 km/hr (21.7 mph) for a range of about 40 km/hr (24.8 mph). the acceleration works similar to
a scooter, employing manual power from the user to push the bike forward until it gets going,

The kitchen of the future will be like a laptop

This cooking time is just a concept by designer Trenchevski Dragan, who has designed what would be a future Electrolux kitchen. Would have an induction cooker with four power levels, cutting board all kinds of food, and a grater and a touch screen to scroll through the recipe while cooking. If we look at the dirt that is able to accumulate the screen of any laptop, I do not even think about the amount of fat and dirt should be removed from the screen after using the kitchen. This kitchen would also be portable, so you go camping and not be the same, we would not be loaded with gas bottles to cook or worry about getting burned with fire. Also have wireless connectivity, both Wi-Fi and Bluetooth and made ​​a touch of modernity, its author has placed a webcam, speakers and microphone, so that the cook can be entertained by video conference with friends while you are cooking. It could connect to the Internet to download recipes and to check the nutritional information and food and stay healthy. do not think this gets to come true some day, but if he ever hits stores cost much money. Although it has many features, is a product I do not think Electrolux is willing to trade in many, many years.
