VW has revealed its newest transportation design: the bicycle. This foldable, compact electric bike has a range of a little over 12 miles, and cruises at a little over 12 mph. It derives its energy from the vehicle, not needing to plug into a socket or be removed from the vehicle to charge.

Yes, this glorified calculator really is a cell phone. This is the equivalent of your grandparents’ Readers Digest printed in 32 font or the oversized remote control for seniors. As funny as that may be, this unlocked cell phone is awesome!

A 36O-degree view while riding a motorcycle is priceless. But now that the world’s first patented rear view mirror helmet is available, you will have to shell out $38O. This purely mechanical, camera-free design reveals a clear view at the brow of the rider to see what is directly behind them. Clever design I must say.

Universal Packaging System, developed by Patrick Sung, claims to fit over just about any object. Utilizing pre-folded triangular segments, this corrugated cardboard chameleon’s construction will wrap its way organically or geometrically to custom fit odd-shaped items.
