Simply set Sphero in his cradle to recharge. There are more than 20 apps now available for Sphero such as The Rolling Dead, Sphero Exile, Sphero Pet and AstroBall.

TICK TOCK BLUETOOTH

Stream your favourite tunes from your Bluetooth-enabled device using the Edifier Tick Tock Bluetooth for wireless audio at home or in the office. The retro style clock comes with a built-in international FM radio tuner with 24 preset channels, Bluetooth receiver, an auxiliary input, five preset alarm functions and a sleep function. The LCD display shows the audio input selected, date and time as well as any active alarms and the strength of the signal for both the Bluetooth connection and FM radio. The two 360-degree omni-directional speakers are neatly disguised as two classic alarm bells, producing 8 Watts of audio output that can be easily controlled via the buttons located on the top of the speaker.

MINDWAVE MOBILE

The MindWave Mobile safely measures and outputs your electroencephalography (EEG) power spectrums (alpha waves, beta waves, etc), NeuroSky eSense meters (attention and meditation) and eye blinks. The device consists of a headset, an ear clip and a sensor arm. The headset's reference and ground electrodes are on the ear clip and the EEG electrode is on the sensor arm, resting on the forehead above the eye. Designed for interface with mobile devices and desktop, it can be used with a wide variety of games, brain training and education applications. Its clear brainwave signal is based on the TGAM, the bio-sensor chipset that revolutionised the industry. It is an excellent introduction into the world of brain-computer interface (BCI).
