Google ConferenceBike - The Future of Group Cycling !

It's no joke: the ConferenceBike is a revolutionary way to bring people together. The ConferenceBike is pedaled by 7 riders sitting in a circle. One person steers while the other 6 pedal (or not) as the bike moves effortlessly along. More than 300 ConferenceBikes are now being enjoyed by a wide variety of groups in 18   countries. It is a tour bike in Berlin, Baltimore and Minneapolis; a tool for corporate team-building in Amsterdam and San Diego, a way for blind people to bike in Dublin and Florida. They have been used for fund-raising events and biking advocacy groups worldwide. ConferenceBikes are being used to transport employees on the Google campus in California; and as ice-breakers on university campuses in New York. Every group you can think of can use a ‘CoBi’ as a TOOL and a SYMBOL for bringing people together.

Originally conceived as an artwork by internationally recognized artist/inventor Eric Staller, the CoBi makes every owner/operator FEEL like an artist; behind the wheel of this bike you SEE the joy that YOU are bringing to people. 

The world's first "braille smartphone".

The phone, which has yet to be officially named, has a screen comprised of a grid of pins, which move up and down to form into Braille shapes and characters whenever an SMS message or email is received. It uses what's called Shape Memory Alloy technology, so as each pin expands, it remembers and contracts back to its original flat shape.
ps: braille - A form of written language for the blind, in which characters are represented by patterns of raised dots that are felt with the fingertips.
