GET YOUR HEART RACING
If you’re seriously into motorsport and want to practice
your driving skills on some of the top tracks around the
world, your name will probably need to end in “Alonso”.
But, thanks to the guys at Base Performance, you can
now own a state of the art driving simulator in your own
home! With real racing data, replica cockpit and wrap
around screen, it’s a true immersive experience.
Kotekuh has tried out the simulator and believe us, it’s
realistic! We should add that this isn’t a “pedal to the
metal” racing game, it’s a professional simulator.
Although that’s not to say you can’t still have fun and
impress your friends...
ROCK AROUND THE
CLOCK
Pebble is the first fully customisable smart
watch, for use with iPhone and Android
smart phones. The watch features
e-paper display technology, similar to the
Amazon Kindle, meaning it can be read
easily in all conditions. The app allows
you to customise the watch face and even
integrates with your smart phone for caller
ID, e-mail and SMS alerts. This truly is a
pioneering product, which is why it has
secured over $10million of funding via its
website. Pebble is definitely one to watch.
SILKY SOUNDS
Our hard drives and smart phones are
bursting at the seams with music these days,
but a lot of our favourite songs remain
confined to the daily commute or an
occasional blasting on the “big speakers” at
the weekend. So if you’re looking to unleash
your music collection, look no further than the
Cocoon from Denon. In a nutshell (or
Cocoon) it’s a iPhone/iPod/iPad dock with
integral speakers and can connect to your
home network to stream music from other
smart phones and laptops. You can even
have multiple Cocoons around your home
and stream music to them too! Check out our
“music in every room” feature on page 7 for a
closer look at multi-room audio.
