SmartSwim UV Intensity Bikini

Now, for the woman who has everything. A smart bikini! Not just smart looking, but intelligent. It has a built-in alarm that tells the wearer to get out of the sun when UV rays are too powerful for sunbathing.
This is one cool gadget for girls. The two-piece is held together by decorative beads that change colour depending on the intensity of the rays. It works even on cloudy days when people might not be so aware of the sun’s danger.

A tag attached to the bikini has a colour-coded chart explaining the various UV levels and their safety range as well as advice on what factor sun cream to use. The “SmartSwim UV Intensity Bikini” costs around £56 ($100) and is made by a Canadian company called Solestrom.

It would be a good idea to incorporate this into Cool T Shirts too and also swimwear.

One problem: I can see people staying the sun longer to see them change colour, which I think goes against the whole idea!

NEC P221W LCD Monitor

If you are a photographer or a graphics designer, the new P221W LCD Monitor is the perfect cool gadget for you.

Designed and manufactured by NEC, this LCD monitor flashes out an outstanding AdobeRGB color range of up to 96 percent clarity, which is perfect for people that usually edit videos or images.

This mid-size LCD monitor features 22 inches of high-resolution display. Meanwhile, the 1680 x 1050 pixel distribution of the LCD is perfect for photo editors or videographers who often need precise color clarity for their work.

With its S-PVA panel, this cool gadget can offer its viewers an outstanding 178 degrees of viewing angle which further maximizes the viewing experience of people. Other notable features are 1000 to 1 contrast ratio and brightness of 300CD/sq. meter.

But for those hard-core gamers, this LCD monitor is not for you. This device is a turtle with its 16 millisecond response time, making it unsuitable for gaming use. The manufacturer has sacrificed some of the response time with the RGD color gamut.

The new P221W comes in a $640 price tag and an extra $375 for the SpectraView color calibration kit, which is optional.
