Now here is another piece of wearable technology, but it has nothing to do with the likes of Google Glass. Rather, the Fos is a new kind of wearable LED display that was designed by Anders Nelson, and it will target athletes in particular. Just what does the Fos offer? Well, it will come with a panel that will hold a bright LED grid which can be programmed wirelessly, using your smartphone.
Do not worry about the Fos cramping your style, since it weighs less than a golf ball, and the panel will keep you visible as you sweat it out, while showing off relevant information such as your heart rate and the number of calories burned for others to check out. This custom embedded system will hold a powerful 32-bit microprocessor, flash memory, LED matrix driver and an efficient power supply. Right now, the Fos wearable LED display is a Kickstarter project, where it will come in varying sizes, depending on the amount of money that you decide to drop. Which particular sport or physical activity do you think that the Fos wearable LED display will be able to benefit the athlete the most? Coaches would definitely be able to help out their proteges all the more with relevant information shown off. [Kickstarter Page]

It seems as though the Telecommunication Equipment Certification Center located in China has given the Sony Xperia Z1 a network license, which would mean it is now free to operate on the country’s mobile networks. Of course, this particular network license approval is not the only thing that the Certification Center released, it also allegedly leaked out a quartet of snapshots of what is most probably the Xperia Z1, where it is shown from the front, back and the customary side shots – both of them. In terms of its design, the Xperia Z1 happens to be nearly identical to the Xperia Z, where you will find a spanking new notification LED located right above the Sony logo to make it different.
It seems that chargers are growing to be more and more of a fire hazard these days, as the latest incident involves an iPad charger which was said to have exploded the hand of a man, throwing him across the room as he unplugged the device. The man was thankful that it was him who received the electric shock instead of his 8-year old daughter, where he believed that the same shock would have killed her instead. Tim Gillooley, 34, is the victim in this case, and this was his recollection on what happened, “There was a huge bang and it blew me across the room. I was in shock. I was hysterically laughing for about two minutes. It was a bad shock that went down my arm. My mum was panicking and Chloe burst into tears. Nine times out of 10, Chloe would have gone to get it herself. I think it would have killed her.”
Nintendo’s current position in the home console market is not exactly an encouraging one, as they have certainly fallen behind Sony and Microsoft in the graphical stakes, where their Wii U has not managed to light up the imagination of the masses in the manner that Nintendo would have wanted. From September 20th onwards, it seems that Nintendo will be rolling out a Deluxe version of the Wii U system that will be accompanied by a price cut by $50, which means that the Wii U Deluxe Set will now cost $299.99 a pop instead of $349.99 previously.
