Adventurers or those of you that just like to explore the world with a vehicle might be interested in a new roof top tent that is launched via Kickstarter. Cinch has created a new design aptly named the Air Cruiser that allows you to quickly can wherever your vehicle can explore.

The super lightweight roof top tent offers “record-breaking” interior space and is compatible with any car say its creators. Early bird specials are now available for the unique project from roughly $2199 or £1727 (depending on current exchange rates).

“TO be compatible with Air Cruiser, your vehicle must have a maximum roof load Of 42.5kg and be compatible with crossbars. Most vehicles fulfil these requirements but for help finding our more, read on below. Air Cruiser doesn’t come with crossbars or a rack for your vehicle. This is because different vehicles have different requirements. Getting crossbars for your vehicle is a simple process • head to our handy graphic above for an easy.to.follow guide,”

“Thule and Yakima are excellent brands to consider when looking for crossbars. However, so long as your crossbars have a weight capacity Of 70kg-or-more and they can be spaced between 31-41 inches apart they meet the minimum requirements and are safe to use with your Air Cruiser. The pump requires a power supply Of 12V, so a regular USB (5V) is not sufficient. The majority of vehicles have a traditional 12V adaptor but you can also use a 12V powerbank, readily available from online retailers.”

Assuming that the Cinch Air Cruiser funding campaign successfully raises its required pledge goal and the project completion progresses smoothly, worldwide shipping is expected to take place sometime around September 2023. To learn more about the Cinch Air Cruiser roof top tent project sift the promotional video below.

“We’re thrilled to be running a carbon positive crowdfunding campaign that allows every backer to make a real impact on the planet. When you purchase an Air Cruiser from us, you can rest easy knowing that your purchase hasn’t left a carbon footprint. Not only will we offset the emissions from each product we send out, but we’ll also make sure the impact is positive by supporting amazing projects all around the world.”

An interesting artificial intelligent powered ChatGPT boombox has been created for the Interaction Intelligence on Large Language Objects (LLO) class lead by Marcelo Coelho, part of MIT’s Art & Design Major. VBox takes the form of an AI-powered radio specifically created for musical exploration and group vibrations.

In this innovative musical journey, the user selects a cartridge representing their desired genre, which is inserted into the radio. The Vbox then selects a song and displays rolling texts on the screen that relate to the song’s emotions, meanings, or cultural backgrounds.

The user chooses a word that resonates with them, and the Vbox processes it to determine the next direction. OpenAI’s language models analyze the playing track and find similar tracks, which are streamed through Spotify and played through the Vbox’s speakers.

The interface includes a dot matrix display, crank, and buttons for queueing and playing. The Vbox’s hardware combines perforated sheet metal with 3D printed components, powered by an Arduino microcontroller. This integration of AI with analog devices sparks reflections on the role of language models in our daily interactions with objects and culture. VBox has been built by Danning Liang and Artem Laptiev at the MIT School of Architecture and Planning.

“The hardware of VBox is made from perforated sheet metal assembled through mechanical fasteners as well 3D printed pieces for electronic mounting. VBox’s internal electronics are run by an Arduino microcontroller which communicates bidirectionally with ChatGPT and Spotify. “

“The interface of VBox consists of a dot matrix display, a crank, and two buttons dedicated to Queue and play. The crank allows the users to scroll backwards or forward through the texts generated and choose the desired property to queue or play.”

“The user starts their musical journey by choosing a cartridge containing the desired musical genre. As they insert it into the radio, Vbox picks a song based on the cartridge. While the first song is playing, Vbox begins by displaying a series of rolling texts across the screen, “Serenity”, “Freedom”, “Whisper”, “Enigma”, These words all relate to the song being played in some ways, whether it is the emotions, or meanings, or cultural backgrounds.

As the user watches these texts scroll by and finally notices the word that echoes strongly with their vibe, through a simple press of a button, VBox processes the word and picks the next exciting direction for the musical journey.”

“VBox derives its intelligence from OpenAI’s language models, which are prompted to analyze the playing track and extract its various abstract musical, cultural, and contextual properties. The same models are also used to find the tracks that share similar properties. The identified new tracks are streamed through Spotify and played through the VBox’s speakers.”

“At it’s core, BAJAO Cabin is a tent. But on closer look, BAJAO Cabin is more than that. It’s a tent, that uses your SUP Board as an air matress. So you can camp even on rocky ground, on your car roof or on the water. But even that is not all there is. The two sidepipes make board and tent very stable on the water. This allows you to easily anchor and spend the night on the water in areas where camping is not allowed. Whenever you go on a multi-day SUP tour, you need the right equipment by your side. That starts with the right tent.”

“Our air frame (patent pending) compensates for the difference in height between the floor or water and the deck of the board. It consists of two inflatable arches to which the inner tent is attached. The two spawning bodies, we call them sidepipes, not only equalize the height difference, the stabilize the board on the water. This allows you to camp on calm, shallow water.”

If the BAJAO campaign successfully raises its required pledge goal and production progresses smoothly, worldwide shipping is expected to take place sometime around October 2023. To learn more about the BAJAO paddle board tent project analyze the promotional video below.

“You can remove the sidepipes and set up your BAJAO Cabin directly on the ground. Without SUP board underneath and use it like a normal trekking tent. This way you have besides a SUP tent and a roof tent also a normal, very spacious one-person expedition tent. BAJAO Cabin is a roof tent for any car. Attach the SUP and tent to your roof rack and you’re ready for the night!”

Air Shoe is a unique combination of sandal, casual sneaker and water explorer footwear. Providing a unique solution that allows you to not only wade in water but also explore city streets in comfort. Why carry three different pairs of shoes when one stylish shoe allows you to explore the beach, city and travel in style. Early access pledges are now available for the avant-garde project from roughly $46 or £39 (depending on current exchange rates).

“We have developed a beautiful product that provides a “running naked” feeling of pleasure! With “cyclone” shock absorption and automatic exhaust black technology, wearing these super cool air shoes feels like not wearing anything at all. Countless small and large exhaust holes, combined with the use of ice silk quick-drying technology for the fabric, and the new “cyclone” shock absorption technology.”

“This is a pair of running shoes that allow you to feel your feet “breathing”. All this is inseparable from the invention of the multi-stage “cyclone” shock absorption system. When people are walking or running, the airflow quickly gathers through the hollow ring holes to form a powerful updraft swirl.”

Assuming that the Air Shoe funding campaign successfully raises its required pledge goal and the project progresses smoothly, worldwide shipping is expected to take place sometime around September 2023. To learn more about the Air Shoe quick drying sneaker project play the promotional video below.

“At this time, the sole is like installing “energy rings” that assist in rebounding, like springs, realizing high-elastic cushioning and effectively relieving the pressure generated during walking. The large area groove design on the sole of the shoe allows the air flow in the air cushion to slowly release the pressure by flowing outwards, providing a comfortable and cushioning effect, and effectively dispersing the pressure on the body.”
