Absrtact: Innovation is not big, you don't have to learn rebels, with people rob the living room play, also really need not imitate Iron Man, tinker what electric car. Innovation can be ' real ', even a bit silly, and after being seen by others, you may also incur a sentence.

Innovation has nothing to do with ' grand ', you don't have to learn rebels, and people rob the living room play, also really need not imitate ' Iron Man ', tinker what electric car. Innovation can be ' real ', even a bit ' silly ', and after being seen by others, you may also incur a phrase, "What's This?" "The kind of hindsight regrets, hehe. In the first two days of the TC disrupt hardware show (which is known as Silicon Valley's hottest technology feast and entrepreneurial Party), this is the most outstanding feeling of small knitting. Today, we will take stock of the exhibition on the 5 Silicon Valley's coolest hardware gadgets: When toys, wearable, taking to travel, to the smart machine when accessories ... They may not be enough to change the world, but they really stretch the imagination of the world, hoping to bring you a little inspiration.

Things are purple drops, TC disrupt on those who have been a long awaited Montana interview (Yahoo Mui, face book small ... And no imagination of the wonderful, the big guys are accustomed to cautious, occasionally airing half of the phrase ' language is not surprised four ' remark is also in the U.S. government supervision of the transparency ... After two days and a half, the small series of doping finally appeared in the final hardware show (Hardware Alley): A lot of the media has been fried cooked meat of the hardware of a single product, this time finally came true, a lot of micro-innovation of small objects (the future is bound to be our compatriots in the kind of cottage), but also let people hold in their hands fondle admiringly, There are also a number of indiegogo/kickstarter on the hardware star, to take this opportunity to contact potential users.

It is worth mentioning that, hardware Alley is full of many green faces and poor English, some entrepreneurs can not even use language to express their products accurately the core advantages of the use of features .... But still ' brave ' to stand out and talk with the product. Several European entrepreneurs have told me that they particularly fancy the ' optimism ' of Silicon Valley, where the atmosphere is with their home country (UK, Bulgaria, Poland etc.) It's totally different. Neither the investor nor the potential user will be able to pick up on the run (the idea is too thunder, the audience is too small, the cost is too high blah blah); if they don't give you money, at least don't mind giving you some ' mental aid ', won't let you have ' a slap was shot dead ' feeling, hehe.

1 remote control four-wing small ash machine Micro Drone 2.0. It is the small toy of the big Child, also on the size of one hand, 20 card weight. You can sit comfortably on your home couch and remotely control this ' four-claw ' gadget, feiyanzoubi it in your home, from the living room, to the bedroom, to the kitchen (note that you don't let it hit a living person or a pet). Thanks to its ' four-wing design ', Micro done 2.0 can turn a 180-degree corner like a fighter, or flip a 360-degree somersault in the air; it doesn't even have to take off from the ground like a helicopter, you throw it in the air with your hands, it can still fly, magically! The new 2.0 version also features a small camera that can be recorded in the sky and stored directly in the SD card. Need to be careful, the small things fly fast, the response is also a thief sensitive, but the requirements of the driver slightly higher, this is not, small knitting in the scene by a rookie driving micro drone hit two times.

The designer of Micro drone, 2.0, is a British boy who loves the technology mania and popularity of the Silicon Valley. He could not have expected, only half a day of Kung Fu, he will be able to sell 100 sets of micro Drone 2.0 in the venue (small part of the time to buy is out of stock). Indeed, the 50-dollar promotional price (the original price of 100) can block everyone's enthusiasm for this magical little grey machine.

2 Magic Bicycle Glove zackees. Founder Zack Vorhies believes this glove can give the power and fashion to bike enthusiasts as well. The glove design is actually quite pediatrics, only in the glove thumb and forefinger between the arc mouth seam on two conductive metal wafer, as long as the two pieces of the contact (such as fists), embedded in the back of the hand led to light will light. The gloves are fitted with ordinary button batteries, which can be used every day for about two months. With the zackees, the cyclist does not need to hand in the air gestures to signal the rear of the vehicle, a lot of security, but also a lot of trouble. You know, in the United States, where bicycles and motor vehicles often share the same lane, how many cyclists are unlucky to be "ignored" by the car every year, and there is a colleague who died last year ...

The founder, Zack, who worked for Google Earth for up to 5.5 before his own business, admits he is a fanatical cyclist who is not only obsessed with the technology of life, but also obsessed with fashion design. Zack thinks wearable devices must be both practical and stylish, and that's what he's been trying to do. The Zackees gloves will appear in various sizes and colours and will be on Kickstarter next week. Let's wait and see.

3 Portable Alcohol tester breathometer. This little Dongdong is billed as the world's first alcohol tester connected to smartphones (iOS and Android). Its operation is very simple, you first download its application, and then put the Breathometer plug into the phone's headphone hole, to it blow; Finally, the alcohol content test results will be in 5 seconds on your mobile phone screen. The founder originally only intended to melt 25000 dollars through Indiegogo, eventually melt to nearly 140,000 dollars! Breathometer is priced at 50 dollars and is expected to ship in November.

Small make up feel a small thing to get Chinese gift really is very good son: both practical, also appear to be intimate, hehe. How to say that, according to domestic standards, the standard of wine driving is easy to achieve, often half a can of beer (wine precision 3.6,330ml installed) can be exceeded. So the use of this dongdong is not to say, I drank this evening, blowing to see if I can drive (please, just fill a bottle of beer, do not have to blow all know the super). Small set think more practical application scenario is: I drank wine last night, blow this morning to see if I can open, or drink this morning to blow the night to see if you can open. After all, this kind of thing is punished is also a few, and usually not good judgment, this is breathometer can come in handy. In addition, the determination of alcohol content, matching the app can also recommend to you around the driving, taxi service God Horse, a little ' one-stop service ' means. The founder told me that testing alcohol is only the first step, in the future he will use similar principles to add to the acid, acetone and other substances test, so that Breathometer can not only test the alcohol content, but also to test ' tone '.

4 Smart Scooter Zboard. This is a very high rate of "cooked pork" products, before the media has been rendered many times. However, the small series in the scene to see its actual, still be ' stunning ' to. It's not so much a ' smart skateboard ' as a ' fool's skateboard ', Zboard is more manageable than a regular skateboard; besides a Board + 4 wheels, it adds a weight sensor and a motor, which means a little electric bike. The advantage of Zboard is that it is lightweight and environmentally friendly and easy to play. Standing on the Zboard, you step on the front of the circular foot pad can move forward (without a single foot periodically pedal to give the scooter power), stepping on the back of the foot pads can brake; In addition, the Zboard is also equipped with a spring buffer device, which direction your body tilt, zboard can be perceived through the tilt of the skateboard, so that according to your desire to adjust the direction of Zboard driving. Zboard's top speed is up to 17 miles per hour, and full power can run 20 kilometers (5 hours per charge).

That is to say, never played skateboard small knitting stand up to try, still trembling, legs straight trembling. Well, Zboard obviously has a fairly demanding sense of balance. In addition, 650 dollars-1200 dollars of the price (batteries, motors and other configuration) will make a lot of popularity and daunting it.

The founder told me that their products, including versions compatible with the iphone 5 Flash interface, will begin mass production in Shenzhen next week, when he learns that I am from China and immediately faces a contradictory look, especially telling me not to divulge this product to copycats (the Shanzhai), saying that he has eaten the cottage's losses. Well, how can you prevent, small series is helpless Ah, perhaps this is ' foreign micro-innovation ' China's fate bar ...
