Ergonomic Gadgets

Today, after much anticipated buildup, Taser Corp has released their newest taser stun gun, the TASER X3.  The X3 is different from the other line up stun guns in that this one is able to deliver a multi shot electronic control device enabling it to engage multiple targets.

The X3 also displays a quite obvious warning arc to gain compliance of would be bad boys before having to deploy any charges.  This taser gun has the ability to simultaneously stop up to three people with a single unit.

This taser gadget really looks outstanding.  But more than that, it just looks like it has an ergonomic design.  It looks impressive. I  would really hate to stare down the barrel of one of these things.  Tip… if a cop ever tells you to get down on the ground, just do it… Otherwise they might pull one of these puppies out.

Taser claims that this device is and I quote, “the most intelligent hand-held force option ever developed”.  That is quite a profound statement.  I have a feeling we are going to be seeing a lot more of these in the not too distant future.

This retro radio gadget has been issued a “Royal Warrant of Appointment”. That basically means that it is provided to the Royal Family in England.

This radio has the look and style that is exact opposite to most radios I have seen on the market today.  Most radios today are either black or silver and have a million tiny buttons on them.

This retro radio really looks kind of cute and would probably brighten up any living room or even kitchen for that matter.  This looks like the kind of radio you get your Mom or Dad as a gift.  It seems like it is one of those gifts you get that makes you never really forget that it was a gift and how special a gift it was.

This is a handheld computer from socket mobile specifically designed for healthcare facilities and other facilities where excess bacteria is a concern.

The case is made of antimicrobial materials which is designed to protect against the spread of methicillin resistant staphylococcus aureus (try saying that fast 5 times in a row ).  So basically it helps resist bacteria strains from spreading as a result of using this gadget.

The company claims that lab tests show the device brings about a more than 99 percent reduction in staph bacteria in a 24 hour period.

This handheld computer uses the windows mobile 6.1 operating system, is durable, lightweight and has an ergonomic handheld design.  It is specifically designed for healthcare applications at the point of care.  Maybe this is the gadget we need to reform and improve the cost structure of healthcare ?

I just have to give you my take on the Jitterbug cell phone. It has to be one of the most ergonomic cell phones I have ever seen.  I do not own a Jitterbug cell phone, but still it is clear to me that this phone was designed with Senior citizens in mind.  Simply put, it is ergonomic.

But why does this cell phone have to be limited to senior citizens?  Why not kids or teens or middle age folks too?  There is nothing to be embarrassed about if you own a phone like this. It is easy to read, easy to enter phone numbers, and easy to make and receive calls with… isn’t that what phones were supposed to be designed for ???
