Can you imagine a window..? A window that you could carry with you in your pocket and could give you the power to search for anything and everything you see, when you see it?
Well so did Mac Funamizu Born and bred Tokyo Japan, in-house web/graphic and industrial designer.
“This is what I wish the internet search will be able to do with a mobile device in the NEAR future. Touch screen, built in camera, scanner, WiFi, google map (hopefully google earth), google search, image search… all in one device. Like this way, when you can see a building through it, it gives you the image search result right on the spot.”
“You can even see flowers that are not actually blooming.”
I was so excited when I saw this, it’s an amazing concept and I cant believe that It hadn’t been though of earlier..!
…and Mac has presented it amazingly well. Though if you read his blog, Mac is quite modest when it comes to his own designs, considering himself to be mediocre compared to the other designers out there.
It’s just not true!
Although just a prototype, Mac hopes for the mobile search device to one day become a reality, but accepts that “it’ will take some years… I just draw the things I’d like to one day see in the future”
The possibilities for this device are endless, and Mac has only began to uncover its potential.
“Getting data of a weather forecast.”
Mac’s inspiration comes from all around him, and freely admits that he’s “easily inspired,” it is when he feels an inconvenience in his everyday life that he works to find a solution. Not to mention the likes of other designers such as Naoto Fukasawa, Jonathan I’ve and Josef-Muller Brockmann
“When you wonder what the scene you’re looking at was like in the past, you can see it.”
(an interesting read is this! Mac’s approach to problem solving and design!)
“Choose a building and touch a floor and it tells you more details of the building.
Well, it doesn’t have to be a building, but it can be any object you see. You can use it when you want to know a car model, an insect name, what kind of food is served at a restaurant and how much, who built a bridge, etc. etc. But as a designer myself, I hope it’s able to tell me a name of a font of the type I see, the size, color (in RGB), and so on.”
“It’s got a scanner built in, so you can use it this way when you want to check the meaning of a word in the newspaper, book, magazine, etc. It would be much easier to read a real book. You can use the dictionary, wikipedia, thesaurus and anything else available on the web.”
Mainly because I don’t usually care about nutrition when I eat, this kind of function would be helpful for people like me.
What Mac loves most about his job is when his clients are “blown away” by his ideas.. and his ideas are big! At the moment he is “designing something fun again.” One is a desktop gadget and the other is a browser extension.
If his previous designs are anything to go off we won’t be disappointed! and stay tuned for “the most popular items, re-rendered” in a “best of 2008”
Indoor guide: Works in a building, airport, station, hospital, etch.
Mac also has his own full throttle approach, to up and coming designers he offers this –
If you have an ace up your sleeve, just don’t keep it long. If you keep it for too long, it’ll go rotten. Just show everything you have to people, listen to what they say. You’ll be able to create something much better, to learn how to show your ideas to people, and to make your community.
“This might be off-topic, but it would be nice if it could work in sync with Google Maps like this.”

i have wondershare video converter ultimate for mac , the registration number on the the application doesn’t match the registration number that i bought for my retirement community. It looks like a pirated copy the support email is a false email address. the registration number is grayed out we bought this software for 2-5 people paid 118 dollars can’t even get support. every DVD we burn has looped. Can’t believe they sent me a pirated one. i tried to uninstall the bad copy so i can download a new copy.
用CO2激光完美的波長與熱作用比例，強大的熱作用可以使陰道粘膜中的膠原纖維、彈性纖維、網狀纖維及有機基質大量增生重塑；CO2的微脈管作用原理使陰道血管重建，血流量增加，細胞功能活躍，進而使陰道緊緻，分泌作用增強、敏感度提高，使陰道恢復年輕、健康狀態。
Derma Veil ® 被喻為新世代逆齡完美輪廓塑造，最新一代的PLLA膠原。 2003年獲得Mexican Ministry of Health (SSA)認證及美國FDA出口認證，並於2006年在拉丁美洲及遠東至東南亞地區廣泛使用，多個臨床實例見證能改善老化、遺傳、疾病(如脂肪萎縮)等引起的凹陷問題，其效果備受認同。蘊含兩大活性成分均具有生物兼容性及分解性，可逐步被人體自然分解吸收，有效塑造童顏肌 : 1. 聚左乳酸 (Poly-L-lactic acid / PLLA) : 促進骨膠原生長 2. 甘醇酸(Glycolic Acid ) 使皮膚表皮層黏膠性脂質鬆軟，改善皮膚厚度，加速細胞再生，減少皺紋及疤痕，加強保濕功能，增加光澤，美白效果。 由於甘醇酸分子較小，容易滲透皮膚 治療前: 皮膚的凹陷/皺紋 治療後: 成分被人體吸收、並刺激膠原增生，撫平皺紋及凹陷部位。 注入BOTOX(保妥適)會抑制突觸前膜釋放神經遞質，阻斷乙酰膽鹼(Acetylcholine)的釋放，從而使肌肉張力下降或癱瘓麻痺，皺紋也隨之而逐漸消失。
它讓神經原在常規的緊張鍛煉中進行共振燃燒，由此帶來健身運動所無法達到的效果。Ion Magnum複雜的振動波是基于於二十多年對神經原燃燒信號的研究手工製作的。 設備製造者的臨床研究結果顯示，30分鐘的治療相當於在健身房10個小時的運動，可以燃燒高達5000卡路里的熱量。其他臨床研究顯示肌肉生成的速度以及脂肪（表面脂肪以及深部脂肪）减少的速度相應都比運動的效果更好。對於Ion Magnum沒有進行理療的部位，甚至會有抗衰老防氧化的效果。 有受試者治療一次之後同一個部位减掉了3-4英寸（不像其他减肥治療中宣稱的那樣，一次治療减掉了5英寸，但那是全身20多個部位加起來减掉的尺寸）。同時，它還可以减掉脖子和下巴的脂肪，讓你的雙下巴消失 . 每次治療需要25分鐘。治療前後的效果非常明顯，而且會持續1-2天。要想達到更好的效果，最好接受1-2個小時的治療。
