Blynk time-lapse wearable camera
Posted in: Today's Chili
One of the best ways to keep track of your life would be to make sure that you pen down your life experiences in a diary. Over the years, there has been an evolution in making sure that your memories are preserved, including the introduction of photographs to accompany the written experience with some visual representation. Of course, there is also the next level which was all the craze a few years back – blogging, which provided a platform for one to share one’s daily life with the rest of the world according to your level of comfort. Following that, the likes of Twitter and Facebook made it all the more interesting. How about making your own life journal all the more interesting with the Blynk time-lapse wearable camera?
The Blynk time-lapse wearable camera is the latest addition to the market by Lyfeshot, where it will measure a diminutive 2” x 1”, coming in the form of a one-step, hands-free form factor that will be able to assist you in capturing life’s greatest experiences. Just how easy is it to use? As easy as A-B-C, since it sports a simple, one-button operation alongside an extremely easy set-up that makes it applicable to be used in just about any situation.
If you are trying to create a video, all you need to do is to set up the Blynk according to the desired photo capture interval thanks to the free Blynk software. The snapshot intervals can be specially adjusted to take anywhere from one frame (photo) per second, to a single frame per day. You will be able to then figure out how best you would like to make use of the 4GB of internal memory, and it also comes with an internal, rechargeable, lithium ion battery that offers over 24 hours of battery life on a single full charge, never mind when you have set it to take 30 photos every minute. Expect to pick up the Blynk in three colors for $129.99 a pop.

Band of Outsiders released a line of Atari-themed apparel this Holiday season. The clothes might as well be adorned with pixel art or random colored blocks to younger gamers, but their dads and moms see cowboys, aliens and car chases there. Unless you look at the Super Breakout sweater, in which case what you see is what you get: a paddle, a ball and a wall.
I chose to feature this sweater not just because I think it looks great but also because it’s not just for Atari or Super Breakout fans. It’s for both Apple fans and haters too. The game you see here wouldn’t exist without Steve Wozniak and Steve Jobs, the same people that led to the iPhone and iPads, which are now home to bite-sized arcade style games in the vein of Super Breakout. If you already know that trivia then this sweater also serves as a reminder of Steve Wozniak’s talent and Steve Jobs’ business acumen, i.e. ruthlessness.
The sweater even has an Apple-like price tag: Band of Outsiders is selling it for $395 (USD). You could do worse: the Super Breakout beanie costs an insane $175.

Much has changed in our world in the past decade. Remember 2003? 50 Cent was still on top, as was Dubya, and you were hot shit if your cellphone had a color screen. Imagine knowing that in ten years, we’d interact with tech using our voices, our gestures, and even our brainwaves. 2013, in particular, has been a year of change.
