DIY: Make a Water Resistant LED Picnic Blanket

You child may not be a budding Picasso but whatever he/she draws is a keepsake isn’t it? That’s why we really liked what art2believe is doing. Basically one just has to send their children’s drawings to the company and they replicate the drawing on pillows, blankets, shirts or anything under the sun.

Remy Biometric Blanket

This is a good device to use especially if you are the type who wants to monitor your sleep movements in bed.

Designer Dasha Anokhina has created a concept that takes Glo pillow’s design to a new level: REMY is a whole dawn-simulating alarm blanket. The system monitors your sleeping movements with a bedside camera. Then, near your chosen alarm time, the blanket begins to light up with an image representing your sleep pattern, waking you as if the sun was rising. And if you’re really into self-analysis, it even saves your sleep data to a USB stick so you can review it later.
