The Air Umbrella will definitely protect your vintage top

Industrial designer Chuan Wang from Nanjing, China, created the air umbrella project which repels rain or snow by blowing air powerfully, forming an invisible shield. At first, the high-tech umbrella release date was scheduled for as late as 2050, but the research team in China claims they can produce it by the end of 2015. The reaction of the public, especially through social medial was extraordinary; therefore putting this product on the market sooner would be a good idea. People are ready for new technology and are craving creative ideas, such as the air umbrella.
The air umbrella will come in three different versions: depending on size (30 cm, 50 cm, 80 cm), weight (500g, 800g, 850g), and battery life (15 minutes, 30 minutes for the bigger models). All models can cover two people and if the rain is light, the battery can last longer. The design is simple and comfortable, which is only natural, since we’re talking about air and not much else.
A big concern was the sound it creates, which prompted the company to use a unique material that absorbs noise. It is explained by the researchers that it is quieter than the sound of moderate rain. In case the battery runs out while the person is outside, there is a quick recharge mode. In order to have the device fully recharged it needs one to two hours for the bigger models. The 15 to 30 minutes in the rain might not be enough for some people before they get to recharge their air umbrella, to be fair. This aspect might be a little inconvenient and it is still being improved upon. Chuan Wang mentions that the device is targeted at people who have a car, which immediately makes its construction and battery life more understandable and appropriate. Another important worry customers have is if it blows water onto bystanders. The inventor explains that if the people are two shoulders away, they will not affect each other. That’s good for those who like their “private space”.
The price of this great product is estimated to be around $200 for the larger models, once the Air Umbrella hits the market. While the project is in its development stage, the researchers are improving the characteristics explained above, in order to make it more attractive to the market. It would be great to see the actual reaction when people own a product like this. All the fans are curious and anxious to try out a new way to protect themselves from the rain in a more ecological way. Estimated delivery time is set for December 2015 as the Kickstarter project has reached its goal.

Baldur’s Gate 3’s Xbox Version Will Help PS5

Belgian developer Larian Studios’ work on Baldur’s Gate 3’s Xbox Series S version will improve performance on all platforms, including PS5. The game’s fifth major patch, expected to launch this week, will include upgrades and new features. More details will be revealed later today.
Director of Publishing Michael Douse says PS5 performance improvements may be the “least exciting thing” in the title’s next update, so it sounds like a big one. Larian Studios employees are proud of “finally” implementing tweaks, fixes, and changes, Douse says. Later today, we’ll bring you all the Baldur’s Gate 3 update details.
Those who reached the RPG’s third act have reported technical issues during the narrative’s conclusion, especially in co-op, so today’s update should fix them. New features like a permadeath mode are expected, along with Xbox Series S optimization fixes. What else should be added to the game?

PC Mounts Show PlayStation Trophy Support

We love the PlayStation ecosystem, especially its top first-party studios, but Sony Interactive Entertainment could do more to build goodwill. The long-awaited Trophy support for PS5 games on PC appears to be closer to reality, though nothing official has been announced.
TrueTrophie’s scanners found a new PS5 Trophy list with “PSPC” as a platform. The list, titled “Trophy Set” and unattached to a game, appears to be a test. TrueTrophies notes that developers rarely submit their own platforms to PSN, suggesting Sony is behind it.
TrueTrophies says this platform is separate from PS5 but can connect to it, suggesting compatibility. As PlayStation fans know, PS4, PS Vita, and PS3 games could share a list. In October 2022, Sony added PSN support to Marvel’s Spider-Man Remastered’s PC release, allowing players to link Steam accounts to unlock an exclusive skin. Potentially minor, but something we’ll watch.
TrueTrophies lists PlayStation Trophies for serious hunters. They scrape the PlayStation Network’s ominous underbelly with scanners to provide the most up-to-date trophy lists, sometimes dangerously. TrueTrophies posted Marvel’s Spider-Man 2’s trophy list weeks ago, with spoiler titles.

No worries, PS5 Slim SSD upgrades are possible

Next month, the PS5 Slim will replace the original PS5. Its main selling point is its detachable disc drive. Sony’s design change will streamline manufacturing, but consumers will have more flexibility. The refreshed machine will be 30% smaller than its predecessor, reducing its footprint.
But since the manufacturer hadn’t mentioned it, some worried you couldn’t install another SSD. A spokesperson told IGN that “there are no changes with the new model”—you can still install a compatible hard drive to expand the console’s storage.
Note that the new model increases on-board storage from 825GB to 1TB, so you get more space out of the box. However, some games are now so large that you may need a new PS5 SSD.
