Rocketskates智能风火轮

我国经典神话形象哪吒，凭借脚下的风火轮、手上的混天绫、乾坤圈上天入地、无所不能。如今，你也能化身哪吒了：踩上这款智能"风火轮"Acton R Rocketskates，分分钟变成追风少年。

这款"风火轮"是一双电动鞋，创始人 Peter Treadway 在四年前就开始研发这款产品。两年后，电动鞋以 spnKiX 的名字登陆 Kickstarter。如今的 Rocketskates 是它的进化版，已经完全摒弃了最初的工程机造型，变得十分酷炫，重返 Kickstarter。

这双酷炫的风火轮通过绷带固定在你原有的鞋子上。启动、加速、刹车可以通过脚部动作完成。Rocketskates 上有三个轮子，两侧有两个较大的，鞋跟处有一个较小的。总体来看像是一双旱冰鞋，不过它可以自主运动，鞋子依靠内置的两个马达来驱动。当然，如果你在上楼梯或是其它使用场景中不需要轮子，它可以收起轮子，用橡胶鞋底来接触地面。

Rocketskates 的"智能"同其它类似产品一样，有一个匹配的 app，名为 ACTON。鞋子的蓝牙模块能够连接 ACTON，用户能通过手机够对鞋子进行控制，追踪线路、查看电池状态、错误诊断以及分享与社交。

目前 Rocketskates 有三个版本：R6、R8 和 R10。三款鞋子均安装锂电池，大约 1.5 小时能够完成一次充电。Rocketskates 最高速度能够达到 12mph(19 km/h)，R6 在充电后可以运行 45 分钟，大约能够行进 6 英里，R8 能够运行 8 英里，R10 则能够达到 10 英里。

Rocketskates 在 Kickstarter 的众筹目标是 5 万美金，三款鞋子 R6、R8 和 R10 的零售价格分别是 399、499、599 美元。

目前来看，"硬件+app"型的"智能产品"大多大同小异，如何做到差异化、准确抓住用户痛点，是硬件开发者需要深思熟虑的问题。Rocketskates 达到了"好玩、酷炫"这个标准，今后是否会成功，还要看成熟的产品设计如何了。

Over A Year After Android Launch, ShopSavvy Finally Comes To The iPhone

ShopSavvy was one of the best early Android applications. It launched in October of last year after winning one of the initial Android Developer Challenge top prizes (when it was still known as GoCart). But despite the success it has seen on Android, one question remained: When would it be available for the iPhone. Today, it finally is. Developed by the guys at Big In Japan , ShopSavvy is an app that allows you to use your device as a portable barcode scanner. You point your phone's camera at any barcode and it will read it, do a product look up, and give you information about the product, as well as where you can find it online or at nearby stores and for how much. Obviously, something like this is a window shopper's dream. ShopSavvy was one of the best early Android applications.

Lindsay Lohan confirmed her split with Samantha Ronson and insisted the decision was part of a very healthy and mature effort to " focus on myself ." Upon hearing this, Ronson changed her locks and discussed a restraining order with police, so confident was she in Lohan's ability to turn productively inward. Lohan promptly had a run-in with the police . Who would have imagined such a messy breakup for this model relationship? Courtney Love's lawyer, on her client's drug-fueled plunge into broke-ness: ""Courtney noticed the money was gone when there wasn't any left." Deadpan gallows humor: the only possible response to having Courtney Love as a client. (Besides asking for a hefty retainer.) [ P6 ] Before Lauren Conrad's contract expired in March, MTV
