Hydro Power Cell Phone Charger 

Freedom is offering a hydro power cell phone charger. Developed in Germany, the Blue Freedom charging kit consists of a 4.7-in diameter micro turbine, a 5W generator and a 5,000 mAh lithium-polymer internal battery. The turbine takes a plunge into a running water body and the unit's base stays ashore, letting you charge devices directly by way of the USB 2A and 1A ports. You can also store energy in the integrated battery for later use. A built-in LED light helps you see at night. The kit is designed to operate in temperatures between 41 and 104 ºF (5 and 40 ºC) and altitudes up to 16,400 feet (5,000 m). This charger is at a kick starter for $219.

Flatpack Go-Kart

The PlyFly Go-Kart is a gasoline-powered flat-pack kart that can be assembled in just a few hours, while promising speeds of up to 25 mph (40 km/h).The PlyFly is the work of The FlatWorks, a wooden kit company, and comes in two types: a 2.5-horsepower and a 4-horsepower model. The more powerful of the two is significantly faster at 25 mph (40 km/h) compared to 17 mph (27 km/h), and can run for 2.5 hours from a single tank of gas, compared to an hour for the smaller eThe ngine. Currently PlyFly is on Kickstarter to raise funds in order to bring its prototype Go-Kart into full-scale production. If you want to back the project and hopefully receive a model in mid-2015, the cheapest pledge point remaining is &745 for the 2.5 horsepower engine model, while the 4 horsepower engine will set you back $845.

NASA Test-Fires Massive Solid Fuel Booster

NASA has successfully completed the first of two tests designed to certify the massive solid fuel boosters which will form a part of NASA's next generation Space Launch System (SLS). Once completed, SLS will represent the most powerful launch vehicle ever constructed and will be responsible for, among other tasks, launching NASA's Orion spacecraft on humanity's first manned mission to Mars.

The booster measures an impressive 177 ft (54 m) in length and carries 25 percent more fuel than those used to service the now defunct US Space Shuttle program.A temperature of 90 ºF was selected for the test based on the temperatures endured by the similar but smaller boosters used to launch space shuttles, which were found to endure between 40 ºF (4 ºC) to 90 ºF of heat over the course of their service.
The rocket successfully ignited and burned for a full two minutes, during which time it produced around 3.6 million pounds of thrust.  Upon completion, SLS will be power two monster as well as four R-25 engines, with the maiden flight scheduled to take place sometime in 2018

Samsung Dream Doghouse 

The Dream Doghouse was created to promote Samsung's sponsorship of this year's Crufts dog show in the UK, so it isn't going to be hitting the market any time soon. It took a team of 12 designer to come up with the concept. It cost a total of $30,500 to develop .It's split into three areas: a rest and entertainment space, a dining area, and an unsheltered recreation area with turf grass. Much of the technology on display doesn't actually work, but Samsung imagines to put many things such as: treadmill, a hydrotherapy pool, an automatic feeder, etc. The video below shows a little more information on the design.
