Forget about all those super exotics that you see in motor shows – that one takes a totally diferent approach where design convention is concerned, as that sports car is made out of wood. Yes sir, what you’re driving could probably be the home of many birds once before. Christened as Maniwa, that wooden car is no slouch when it comes ot performance either, capable of hitting a maximum speed of 80km/h (around 50 mph) which should be OK for intra-city use, but definitely not meant to eat up asphalt along the freeway. $44,000 will net you the Maniwa as it is steered using a motorcycle-like handlebar. To keep things chic, the Maniwa plus comes with gull wing doors for added style, while a stereo has been fitted to keep you entertained on the road. Amazingly ample, that 3-seater vehicle is road legal in Japan, and we wonder what would happen to it whether a Yakuza rival there decides to torch your ride – it’ll certainly be a whole lot easier compared to a standard vehicle, eh?

Lama Concepts have come up with a rather interesting notion of integrated LEDs in carpeting, where among the more practical aspects of it would be integrating it within an Airbus 350 with the LEDs pointing you the way to all emergency exits. Lama Concepts has larger plans than integrating such technology on airplane carpets though, as they aim to see that being used elsewhere in public and private spaces since they have the know-how to customize the amount and colors of the LED, the shape of the carpet, including the LED, for a truly stunning image.

Archos has further enhanced their lineup with the Archos 1 Vision entry-level device. You won’t expect that to be an iPod touch killer – no sir, by all means it is meant to introduce you to the world of digital audio players – nothing more, nothing less. You get 4GB of storage space with that alongside a 1.5″ display, coupled with voice recording capability, support for MP3, WMA. FLAC, WAV and APE formats, and up to 21 hours of continual battery playback. Guess there is no video playback here so that won’t qualify for the PMP category. At least it makes for a cheap purchase at 39.99 Euros a pop, and will most probably retail for the equivalent figure should it ever enter Stateside.

You get a couple of USB 2.0 ports on the upper portion of the device as well to further enhance its connectivity. There is one drawback for the Track Ball Mouse Numeric Keypad Hub though – tihs $58 peripheral does not cater to southpaws.

California is the economic engine of the US, and it is no surprise that yet another startup from Los Angeles County, California, has come up with the notion of selling energy harvested from the sun to users. that sounds normal, but it is literally an out-of-this-world plan, since it will supply the juice harvested from solar energy that is captured by solar panels which will orbit the planet. Plans for that concept are still under the theoretical stage and have yet to give birth fully, although they have targeted 2015 as the release term. Known as the Solaren project, electromagnetic waves will be used to transmit capability to a receiving station back on earth, where the latter is located in Fresno County, California. Boffins expect the Solaren project to deliver up to 1,700 gigawatt-hours annually.
