UK Inventor Creates EL Safety Helmet

Although we do not expect to see it for another year or two, we love EL Safety Technology and want to find out all the new happenings of it. A UK inventor came up with a mass production ready helmet that uses Electro luminescent technology in it. Capable of being seen for up to 300 meters, these helmets would provide bicyclists and police officers a new added safety element. To date, one of the leading causes of police accidents and deaths are caused by traffic accidents, both on bikes and directing traffic.

Vermont Has One More City Leading the LED Charge

Red, yellow and green (unlit) LEDs used in a t...Image via WikipediaWe all know LED Lights are great, and most of us are trying to incorporate LED's into our daily lives. Waterbury, VT is taking that initiative one step further and actually replacing all the Street Lights into LED Street Lights. This major step is not cheap. It is costing the city about $500k to make the change, but they are looking towards the future, in terms of electrical costs, replacement and repairs, and not just the initial investment.

We should soon start to see more and more cities jumping on this eco-friendly train which will not only stimulate our economy, but also provide a new era of eco-friendly operations across the US.

LED Dance Superstars Take Center... Building???

Have you ever heard of the Japanese music sensation group, Norazo? We haven't either. But wait till you get a load of this video. I'm not sure whether its cool, or makes me very, very uncomfortable. I'm just wondering how long until Justin Bieber does something like this? It's basically a cross between Ricky Martin, William Hung and a small, and I do mean very small portion of Daft Punk.



Share your thoughts of this cool, yet awkward video from our friends in the far east.

Pick Up Your Own Electroluminescent Tron Light Cycle

A mere $55k gets you to be as cool as Sam Flynn, and $110k will allow you to get 2 and battle against your friends... Well, this isn't completely true, but a new street legal Tron cycle illuminated completely with Electroluminescent Tape (EL Panel), so if you have an extra $55k laying around you can ride in style to your next Tron or LAN party. This cycle is not going to allow you to leave a trail of light for someone to run into, but it's pretty darn close to the movie bike.
