The Triops 360 Digital Camera

Chosen as a finalist for the BraunPrize 2007, the Triops is quite the user-friendly robust digital camera. Created by German designer Franziska Faoro, the Triops includes three fisheye lenses to capture a variety of images from various angles. Wondering what you can do with a triple-threat lens cam? Throw it in the air for sequentially taken 360 degree panorama snapshots. It can also respond to sound or movement and pictures can be wirelessly transmitted to a separate display unit. I wouldn't be surprised if smaller versions of this design are on the market within a year. via Yanko Design

Concept Cameras I Wish I Could Get My Hands On

I never shy away from concept products, because if there's one thing that is constantly changing and evolving, it's gadgets. For instance, don't be surprised if you see these prototype cameras - which both serve a handy purpose - on the market one day soon. The first is the Triops Digital Camera by Franziska Faoro which features three fish-eye lens cameras that will conveniently capture every memorable moment - panoramic style, of course. The second is the Canon Snap by David Münscher that is so teeny and tiny, Twitter and Facebook junkies will be able to keep their profiles constantly updated with one single click! What are your thoughts on them?
