Locked safe.
This elegant bike locking concept by Lee Sang Hwa, Kim Jin Ho and Yeo Min Gu is one of those rare product design moments when you wonder how a solution so obvious – now you see it – hasn’t been arrived at before. The saddle simply folds back over the rear wheel and a cutout section locks it. Quick. Simple. Done. Problem-solving design thinking of the highest order. MDKtm

iPhone 5 schematics.

Apple have just released the official schematics of the new iPhone 5 on their developer portal. Whether you are an accessories manufacturer or not, it’s fascinating to see a design that was recently so confidential being revealed in such exacting detail. MDKtm

Virtual. Reality.
The Sony Personal 3D Viewer – or HMZ-T1 – is a newly-launched headset that allows the wearer to view a virtual 3D cinema screen over 63 feet wide. With built-in surround sound – and connections for 3D gaming – it promises an immersive experience. In a post-Apple design world, Sony have taken care to create a headset that looks like a tech must-have, hinting heavily at Hollywood depictions of virtual reality tech. Despite the Sci-Fi stylings, it still feels like an odd thing to be wearing. Still, all innovations seem odd initially and it’s the experience it promises to deliver that will really count. MDKtm

Elevated design.
There is nothing MDKtm likes more than an elegant piece of product design. Especially if it’s one of those why-has-no-one-done-this-before / why-didn’t-I-think-of-that? moments. And even more so if it makes life neater and tidier. The new MiniDock by BlueLounge is one of those. Quite simply, it’s a plug-in dock that elevates your charging iProduct off the floor in an easily readable and grabbable position. No more tripping over wires. No more accidentally standing on your vulnerable tech. It’s as beautifully simple and as must-have as that. Why do people make wires anymore anyway? MDKtm
