Super Future Cars

Impress Your Date With A Car Of The Future















Want to impress your friends and possibly score a girlfriend? How about purchasing this sweet-ass “Fastlane” car of the future? You can “Buy It Now” on eBay for a cool $15,000. But before you push the button: It’s not really a car. It’s a shell designed to fit on top of a Pontiac Fiero. Which is not included in the auction. So, yeah. It was designed for Universal Pictures by concept car maker Trans FX for use in a movie or something. I know it can’t actually go anywhere, but I still think I want it. I’ll just use a flatbed trailer to tote it to the bar and then slide it off into a parking spot. Then I’ll proceed to get some lucky lady extremely drunk and ask if she wants to see my fancy sports car from the future. Hopefully she won’t notice there’s not a goddamn thing inside and will still make out with me while we’re sitting on the pavement inside. What, where’s my sense? I’ll throw a tarp down. I may even add a boombox for some makeout tunage.

Aptera Hybrid Now Accepting Pre-Orders












The Aptera hybrid is actually being produced. You can put down your $500 deposit now, and see your car in about a year. It hits 60 mph in ten seconds, and is governed at 95 mph. It comes in two versions. The all electric version ($26,900) has 120 mile range, and is plugged in at night. The Hybird version ($29,900) has an efficient gasoline powered generator that achieves over 300 mpg. Not bad. I want one. Mostly because I’m growing fond of the planet and want something that makes me feel like I’m in the Jetsons. Not because I wanted a flying car or to live in the future — I just wanted to hump the nuts and bolts loose on Rosie the Robot Maid.

THIS PHONE IS AMAZING!!!!





















This Phone is all about the touch screen NO KEYPADS NO BUTTONS JUST ONE BIG ASS TOUCH SCREEN. Depending on the function you want the touch screen control layout changes imediatly FUTURE PHONE RIGHT HERE, Not out yet but testing





Now THAT’s a touch screen …














Sure, the iPhone’s touch screen capability is super cool. And if previous reports proved true, a Newton Touch may be just over the horizon, then touch screen may be the interface of the future. Microsoft surely thinks to, having announced the SURFACE last year as a tabletop interface for hotels and other corporate concerns.

LG/Philips is on the touch bandwagon as they are set to rock CES with Multi-touch Screens that recognize input from either a touch of a finger or more precise writing instruments.

In addition to it’s multi touch capability, the screens also feature built in software for handwriting recognition, split screen displays from up to 3 sources, and transflective backlighting for outdoor use. But here’s the wild part … the technology can split light from the panel into separate paths, which can show three completely different images to people standing at different angles relative to the display. Yikes!

Available in ranges from 32 to 84 inch models, the Philips Multi Touchy displays use infrared image sensors that recognize two separate touch points as well as gestures. The result is a 1080p HDTV display which can be used for shopping malls, airports, public areas and home theater of the rich and famous.

Singularity Toilets





















After the singularity, even your toilet will be transformed. Maybe it will look like this fabulous, googie/populuxe toilet or maybe it will be made of converted T-1000 liquid terminators who can morph to fit any rear end — whether Wookiee or Gray Alien. What else does the far future promise us in the way of toilet technologies? Well, I'm glad you asked that question. The future begins at home, and there's nothing more homey than a toilet so advanced that it wants to vote in the next election.

Perhaps your toilet will look something like this award-winning, sleek Russian toilet, dubbed the Mrs. Hudson and designed to look like a drop of water. Could be a prop from the original Russian version of Solaris. Discerning readers will no doubt recognize it as a larger version of the glass pipe they bought on Haight Street or maybe in Chelsea.

Then there's the combination toilet/washing machine, for a future world where you live in a tiny room and every piece of furniture has at least 4 uses. Fahad, Inc. describes it thusly:



















"Washup" is a conceptual design by Sevin Coskun from Turkey integrating washing machine with toilet flush. It suggests a sustainable water consumption by storing the wasted water in toilette-flush tank and reuse it with flushing. Moreover, "Washup" brings a solution for the problem of location of washing machines in small bathrooms, overlapping washing machine usage space with toilette usage space.














In your post-singularity existence, after living 500 years, you'll need an executive class toilet to distinguish yourself from the mutant underclasses who actually clean your toilet for you. That's why we've got this model, which looks like an executive's leather chair, complete with ergonomic computer and phone setup, and a nice poop hole in the center. And of course, every post-singularity toilet needs to be self-cleaning. This particular model, demonstrated by a wildly-happy user (don't worry — he doesn't overshare), cleans itself in a way that looks at first as if the toilet bowl is breathing. But that's just a trick of the eye. It's merely rotating.
