If you’re a participant in off road sports, then just imagine the adrenaline rush you’d get reliving the action. Liquid Image’s Off-road video goggles, TORQUE HD model 369, contains a 136 degree wide angle lens with line of sight video capture to record off-road action — whether on a motorcycle, mountain bike, ATV or jet ski. The goggles’ adjustable camera lens can pivot upward to 30 degrees to adjust for different rider styles. The video goggles are GPS and Wi-Fi enabled for real-time viewing and playback to smartphones or computers. The Wi-Fi video goggles can be controlled or viewed on a smartphone with the use of an app and videos and images can be GPS tagged to work with mapping websites and geo-location apps. Liquid Image’s goggles have four modes — 1080P video at 30 frames per second, 720P video at 60 frames per second, a 12.0MP Camera Mode and a Continuous Photo Mode. Control of the goggles can be either through the wireless remote control feature or through the buttons on the side of the strap. The TORQUE HD 369 holds a Micro SDHC Card up to 32 GB, which records thousands of photos or hours of HD video. Files may be downloaded to a computer through the High Speed USB cable provided or through a Micro SDHC card. The goggles come in black or white with grey hydro graphics and a choice of two head straps. Liquid Image anticipates that the goggles will ship in June priced at $400.
 

The Logitech Cube re-imagines what a mouse can be, offering every functionality of a mouse and then turning into a presenter when needed. When used as a mouse, the Logitech Cube scrolls when a finger is swiped along the main panel, similar to the experience of scrolling with a touchscreen smartphone. To use the Logitech Cube as a presenter, just lift it in the air and moments later it’s in presenter mode. Clicking the top of the mouse advances to the next slide, and to go back simply turn the mouse over and click again. The Logitech Cube comes with the Logitech Unifying receiver, featuring Logitech Advanced 2.4 GHz connectivity and a small-enough form factor to stay plugged into a laptop when it’s moved. With the unifying receiver, a keyboard, number pad, or even another mouse can be used with the same computer without the hassle of multiple USB receivers. The mouse retails at www.logitech.com for $70.
 

Most often Twitter is thought of as a way to put out short messages, but the Estate of Michael Jackson will be using the social networking service for a different purpose. They announced that a ceremony during which Jackson’s children will use his sequined glove and shoes to make impressions in the cement in the forecourt of Grauman’s Chinese Theatre, will be streamed live via Twitter @michaeljackson with additional photos and live coverage tweeted from Twitter’s music channel @twittermusic. The hoopla begins Jan. 26, 2012, starting at 11:00 PST.
 

The Tobii Gaze interface for Windows 8 from Tobii Technology uses a combination of eye gaze and touch pad to enable the seven primary touch commands of Windows 8 — activate, select, zoom, scroll, etc., in a way that is more natural, efficient and precise than any other laptop or desktop control. The Tobii Gaze interface depends on eye tracking technology for pointing and the touch pad for giving commands and fine-tuning when necessary.
