Eco-Friendly No Driver Taxis for Heathrow Airport

Finally the era of no driver vehicles has arrived, as we only need to tell the vehicle where to go. The out of the space looking buble taxis have been designed for passengers, to go places where they want with the help of a touchscreen interface. Heathrow Airport has bought 18 of such taxis to take their passengers from the car parking to the Terminal 5.

The idea of it comes from Professor Martin Lowson who has a good experience in space travel. The taxi was showed to the world at the Science Museum in London latetly. It has the capacity of taking 4 passengers at a time, with a top speed of 25miles/hour.

The taxi has a overall nice design which gives a very futuristic look. Moreover, the taxi is an eco-friendly vehicle as it runs on batteries so no fumes would be seen keeping the environment clean and clear. Heathrow Airport would be using these taxis by next year.

Keep Waking with USB Wink Glasses

Its hard not to get sleepy after you work constantly, specially when you are on the laptop making some projects etc. The USB Wink Glasses are simply great, if you want to work late and not to get drowsy.


All you need to do is wear the wink glasses with your existing spectacles. It would count the number of times you wink and if it finds that you are not blinking, it would fog the screen causing you to blink. A simple yet very effective idea to help people who find it hard to stick their eyes right place while working.

But, damn i couldn't understand one thing which is that "what would people do who don't wear specs? ". This makes this gadget specific to those people who wear specs.
