Diving Prescription Mask

2009-03-19T06:30:00.000-07:00

A few days ago I was surfing the web and I saw that there was no site displaying information about diving prescription masks, so I decided to write an article, helping those who might need it.

A diving prescriprion mask is almost a normal diving mask, only that it is for those who have eye problems. If you usually wear glasses and you want to practice diving, you surely need one of these. There are many types of lenses that can be ordered for anyone's prescription, so that you have no problem under water.

A few sites selling diving prescription masks: Prescription Dive Masks, Rx Dive Masks, Sea Vision USA.

iPod Video Goggles

2009-02-16T10:46:00.000-08:00

Today I will present you the newest tool for those of you who have an iPod: The iPod Video Goggles. Anyone who has an iPod knows that it can play different types of video files, but this ability isn't used so much because of the small size of the screen (you must hold the iPod very close to your eyes to distinguish what the video is about).

The new goggles make this ability useful now. They project a virtual 24 inch TV right in front of your eyes just by connecting them to your iPod. They draw power directly from the iPod, being able to run between two (30 Gigabyte iPod Video) and more than four hours (80 Gigabyte iPod Video).

The product is available on amazon.com, HERE, at the amazing price of $110.

Antique Floating Globe

2009-01-14T06:06:00.000-08:00

This tool will look great on the top of your desk. A floating globe. It sounds interesting. You may think that it's suspended by an invisible wire, but it's not. It is actually suspended by an impressive electronically controlled magnetic system.

With an 8" diameter, the globe displays a highly detailed map of the entire world.

It has a magnetic field sensor which records the magnetic field generated by the permanent magnets situated in the globe sphere and transmits this to the computer. The computer analyses the received data, controlling the electronic magnets so that the sphere moves accurately upwards or downwards.

When the suspension mechanism is turned off, there is a permanent magnet in the base which holds the sphere safely on the frame.

You can buy the globe from HERE for the price of $90.
