Husqvarna's Automower Solar Hybrid
Husqvarna’s Automower Solar Powered Automower is the world's first fully automatic lawn mower that is partly powered by the sun light. The Automower uses considerably less energy than any conventional mower. That's because in addition to a charging station, it comes with a large integrated solar panel. When there is daylight available, the solar cells enable the mower to extend its cutting periods before it needs recharging. That means a cut lawn in a shorter time, even lower power consumption and an extended battery life. So now it takes even less energy to mow the lawn. Suitable for lawns up to 2,100 square metres, depending on light conditions.

Furniture in a Box: home and office collection
I-TRUNK. The pocket office
Trunk in wood and leather, jewelry in nickeled massive brass. 
SOPRANO. Music maestro
The Soprano Music Trunk. Genuinely not sure how to describe this one. It’s a leather covered trunk in which you can store your music CDs or whatever else you fancy, and which contains a full blown B&O stereo system. 
MOVIE TRUNK
The Pinel Pinel's Movie trunk is a fold out home theatre system. It includes highly acclaimed Bang & Olufsen Beolab 6000 subwoofer, two Beolab 3 speakers, BeoVision 6-26 television, and the DVD1 DVD/CD player. This fold out home theatre system is covered in an assortment of 51 vibrant leathers with nickel plated brass hardware and 3 drawers to store 48 DVD’s. 
Pic Nic Trunk
The Pic Nic Trunk. Rather mythically subtitled "Trunk Of Happiness," this should please anybody out there on a quest for the ultimate picnic hamper. Whilst it may not be the solution to all your problems, it certainly won't hamper a good picnic. Once again, this product is available in a choice of 51 colours and is of wood and leather structure with brass detail. This particular trunk includes "11 drawers in which all the must-have accessories for a champagne picnic has been placed." A compartmentalists dream and surely a must for those in the upper echelons of society who like to shoot, eat and leave. 
Kibako - "The Green Trunk."
The company which provides the option of bespoke crocodile as standard show their nature-loving side once more with the Kibako. Structurally as above, this particular product lets the green fingered folk out there get their trunk on. With two drawers which function as collecting trays, Osram 80w horticultural light and a selection of bonzai maintenance tools, you'll be good to grow in no time. 
BABY TRUNK
I-CASE
Steampunk phone by Arthur Schmitt
This steampunk phone is a conceptual prototype by designer Arthur Schmitt, and it tickles all the right spots from a design standpoint. It's got a heavy wire cover over the earpiece, gauges, visible screws, a rugged brown scheme, a spinning number-counter — oh, how we could go on. Best of all, it uses punch cards and binary phone numbers to control your phone's features and make calls, so getting someone on the line is charmingly unwieldy. Schmitt designed the Steampunk Phone for European cell provider o2, as part of a study on whether or not non-traditional cell phones could be marketed to more unusual focus groups: in this case, role-playing gamers.

Large Hadron Collider (LHC) wallpapers and photos
The Globe of Science and Innovation at night. The wooden globe is a structure originally built for Switzerland's national exhibition, Expo'02, and is 40 meters wide, 27 meters tall. This wooden building was given to CERN in 2004 as a gift from the Swiss Confederation to mark 50 years since the Organization's foundation.

The Compact Muon Solenoid is one of two general-purpose Large Hadron Collider experiments designed to explore the physics of the Terascale, the energy region where physicists believe they will find answers to the central questions at the heart of 21st-century particle physics.
