These guys were the first people online to feature our new T-Sketch T-Shirt.

The new T-sketch t-shirt from the Elektro range features an amazing new technological development – whatever you write or draw on it will be converted into an illuminated message or design!

Anything that’s drawn on the wipe-clean panel activates a glowing light beneath so that it lights up. You can also change the flashing sequence to suit your preference – from a gentle glow right through to a pulsing strobe.

This hugely innovative garment lets you send out your own message or display any logo or picture that you feel like drawing.

Causing a flap – the i-Bird

Here’s another fascinating flying toy from Silverlit that Thumbs Up are distributing -the i-Bird.

With realistic flapping wing flight, the new Silverlit i-Bird looks and flies like a real bird!

 

Many scientists and engineers have attempted to create machines that mimic the way a bird flies, from Leonardo Da Vinci all the way through to the ‘birdmen’ who strap wings to their arms and jump off piers into the sea. Most of the attempts don’t even get off the ground, but now Silverlit has perfected mini-ornithopter technology and the result is the i-Bird – possibly the smallest RC flapping-wing model in existence.

 

Packed with state of the art technology, it’s one of the latest generation of RC flyers that provides an unparalleled level of control and stability both indoors and out. Simple and fun to fly, the i-Bird is ready to soar straight out of the box and ultra-tough to survive the roughest landings.

Here’s a video of the i-Bird in action:

Gadget blogs have also been picking up on the i-Bird already. Here are some links to coverage:
