Leaf Wireless Mouse scores big time on looks and has a decent enough direction as far as tech aspects go. The one thing that we do with our mouse the most is to move it around. Based on this, the designers have created a concept that uses its motion to self-power the mouse. It sounds like a whiff of air for now, but imagine if we could have a wireless mouse that did not tank up on so many batteries every month? Because I use it so much, I tend to replace my Magic Mouse battery every 7-8 days. I say go for Leaf right now!
Designers: Lu Hairong and Zhang Xuehui

The Polaroid Classic Line by ImpossiblePosted on January 10, 2012 in Origins by EDW Lynch
Analog instant photography company Impossible is collaborating with Polaroid to produce the Polaroid Classic Line. The line of products includes twin packs of the last run of Polaroid instant film and papercraft Polaroid cameras. Additional products will be released throughout the year.
After Polaroid ceased production of instant film in 2008, former employees took over the last film factory in Enschede, Netherlands and formed Impossible. Impossible reformulated the Polaroid film dyes (as the dyes were no longer available) and now sells black and white and color instant film for Polaroid cameras.

CES 2012 kicks off with a flood of this year’s coming gadgets (video)Posted on January 9, 2012 in Origins by Dylan Tweney

You’re going to see a whole lot of stories from us in the next four days, so fasten your seatbelts: This week is going to be one big flume ride through the consumer electronics industry.
The 2012 Consumer Electronics Show is where the U.S. tech industry gathers its forces to push into a new year. It’s a flood of new products, and it all started tonight with the first pre-show event, CES Unveiled, where the VentureBeat crew has just landed.
Although the tradeshow itself won’t start until Tuesday, members of the media were stuffing themselves into this ballroom to get a peek at some of the show’s highlights: Multi-touch screens, flying iPhone-controlled toy helicopters, Wi-Fi-enabled baby scales, updated Android tablets and lots of skinny, svelte Ultrabooks. (And once inside, many of them were stuffing themselves with shrimp and weird blue cocktails.)
It’s not just about goofy gadgets. Read up on the CES trends that will shape tech in 2012, and then read our interview with Consumer Electronics Association president Gary Shapiro, who says CES “is doing phenomenally well.”
VentureBeat is sending its biggest ever team of reporters to the show this year. Dean Takahashi, Devindra Hardawar, Sean Ludwig, Christopher Peri and myself are on the scene, shooting video, taking pictures and filing stories.

Lenovo’s IdeaPad S2 tablet is thin, light and can dock for 20 hour battery lifePosted on January 9, 2012 in Origins by Devindra Hardawar

Lenovo has come out swinging at this year’s Consumer Electronics Show.
Along with its first TV, the Taiwanese company today has also announced a revamped tablet, the IdeaPad S2, which weighs only 1.1 pounds and is one-third of an inch thick. Even better, it has a keyboard dock accessory that has a battery of its own — when connected to the dock the tablet can achieve up to 20 hours of battery life, Lenovo says.
The IdeaPad S2 comes on the heels of Asus’ popular Transformer tablets, which also sports a keyboard dock. In a sense, the IdeaPad is the Decepticon to Asus’ Transformer Prime, though it can’t compete when it comes to horsepower since it doesn’t feature a quad-core CPU.
The 10-inch tablet instead runs a dual-core SnapDragon CPU, and it will also come equipped with Android 4.0 “Ice Cream Sandwich.” The IdeaPad S2 is slightly lighter than both the iPad 2 and Asus Transformer Prime, so it may appeal for those looking for a 10-inch tablet that’s particularly portable.
