Apple was disappointed with its brightly colored, inexpensive iPhone 5c, but creator T3 created a concept video to combat the decreased popularity of the 5c and the iWatch and made the iBand.

With the same color schemes as the 5c and the technology of the Nike FuelBand, rumors are spiraling on what it exactly will be in store, and if Apple will even consider it.

Reported by Kotaku, Microsoft's imaging software called the Kinect is being used for other things other than the popular gaming console--including the Korean border!

The software has the ability to detect the difference between humans and animals and detect the nearest officer to assess the situation.

Nobody could have guessed that the same technology used to watch 13-40 year old gamers play Battlefield in their living room would also be involved with national military security purposes.

As the popularity of traveling North increases, the technology to better suit up those tourists is increasing. Michael Tipton, a physiologist from the University of Portsmouth researches ways that could help the people handle the frigid winds, waters and drastic temperatures of the Arctic Ocean and the surrounding areas that are visited by fishermen, cargo ships and awe-struck fans.

Fabric and clothing industries have been finding ways to push the envelope on ways to help better those travelers during the harsh environment, and though these clothes may end up on Fashion Police, they are more likely to save your life if you end up in the freezing waters.

Some of the ideas that are being tested include bright orange jumpsuits (called the Sea Air Barents), which test subjects are placed in a cold chamber approximately -63 degrees and ordered to perform several tasks to test the body's ability to operate accurately with the suit on.

Portlanders and mountain-bikers alike will rejoice to know that there is even MORE to do with your bike then to replace the brakes and switch out the tape--German tire-makers Shwalbe have created a new tubless dual chamber tire/wheel system that is guaranteed to increase your biking performance.

If you are like me, you don't really know anything about bikes other than squeezing the handlebars make it stop and you definitely shouldn't mess with the chain or you'll get oil all over your hands. But tubeless bikes make the tires more lightweight and have more traction.

But to take it the extra step Shwalbe decided to add dual chamber tires to the market, creating a higher-pressur inner air chamber with a lower-pressure outer chamber to provide a firm cushion to lessen the amount of flats, as well as securing the tire bead to the rim.

Overall, the new development for bikers will offer saver rides and more conventional bikes. It is set to be released in August.

Remember Farmville?

Yeah, me too.

Well, Farmville creators Zynga is finally growing up from their pixelated cows and sharming color schemes as they have been granted new technology to give their games more natural looks, starting with their mobile games.

Partnering up with U.K. based NaturalMotion is what gave Zynga the new start to revamp their dwindling gaming market. CEO's of both companies hope to amp up their games to give more "rich, believable experience" for gamers.

Get tired of doing your own household chores? Always wanted to live in those universes where you have robots to do all that cleaning for you? Well, you're lucky, because that universe is THIS ONE!

Still in its trial periods, Scooba 450 is the new robot that is called the Cadillac of the cleaning industries. It cleans, it talks and and it shows you just how dirty your pad is.

Talk? Are you serious?

Of course I'm serious! When the 450 runs into obstacles, it'll let you know so that you can fix it and let it go on its merry way.

Google might have just answered every broke college student's prayers--a $35 HDMI drive that allows you to stream movies, TV shows and music to your TV from any other electronic platform (tablets, smartphones, etc..) by "mirroring".

It's called Google's Chromecast--a device that streams from a cloud to your selected device. Your laptop or tablet then turned into a Wifi-controlled remote for your Chromecast. No more 6-foot HDMI cables and having to sit your laptop on the ground so you can watch a movie with your buddies. With Chromecast you are free to watch whatever you want on the television AND multitask away with the selected device while it's still playing! CRAZY!

The new and improved, sleek and stylish Smartband is giving Google Glass a run for its money--it has the capability to answer phone calls and notify you of new information on any of your social media platforms. It keeps you connected to everyone, online and offline.

Designer Lyon Smith might have created the newest form of transportation!

The "canoe car" is exactly what it sounds like--a canoe-inspired hybrid electric tricycle that relies mostly on batteries and solar power, as well as human strength. It can travel up to 75-100 miles per charge.

Though it may sound grueling--biking your way to work everyday--the driver doesn't have to do all the work. The car propels itself directly, wheras the pedaling is for charging up a a small battery that produces 20% of the entire charge.

But hold on to your hats, folks. This car is still in its prototype phase. But hey, we might be seeing the canoe car before hovercrafts on the streets anyways.
