This, this, this is the MUST-GET item for the Christmas sales season, when it gets released, if it gets released. Originally designed to be the remote for a GenosTV set-top box, the company is busting the Cyclops out into its own product that should hit the market in time for the end-of-year buying season.
At 1st glance, this weird yet hi-tech looking orb controller seemed to be coming from a Star Wars era. Pushing the middle round button will show a 3D projectile of the people that you wanted to talk to. And those entire QWERTY keyboards will bust out and hover to form an illuminated virtual keyboard like in Star Trek. Virtual 3D conference using a mobile orb player. Nah, all those are just my day-dreaming skills.
This is a wireless universal controller by Genos called Cyclops, which claimed to be ergonomically superior for two-handed use. Besides connecting to electronic devices using wireless, it also has integrated Bluetooth to get along with your handheld devices. You can even text your friends using this round orb disc, and throw it to your pet dog and let it fetch after that. There’s another version coming soon which will make friends with your gaming consoles.
“This is the coolest controller you have ever seen,” enthused Genos founder Rob Shambro, in a statement. “It is just the beginning of many bleeding edge products and services coming from our company. We are typing more and more with one or two fingers. The Cyclops could be the wireless keyboard of the future.”
Reportedly designed by Shambro initially by means of Play-Doh to shape the concept, the Cyclops is essentially a disk with a smooth QWERTY keypad, large thumb-driven media controls at the bottom, and a modified D-pad with a large button right in the middle. Genos asserts the Cyclops will be the “most ergonomically correct” controller on the planet, “engineered perfectly” for two-handed use.
