This sleek iPad USB-C hub features six different media ports + a shortcut key for uninterrupted workflow!

HyperDrive is the world’s first-ever form-fitting USB-C hub with six different media ports and a media shortcut key.

USB-C media ports are designed to get the sh*t done that our computers can’t. Whether you use them for media storage, to transfer files, adapt to external hardware, or all of the above–media ports can do it all. They can do so much, we sometimes forget their limitations. While most USB-C drives on the market host around four media ports, a new USB-C drive from Hyper called HyperDrive features six media ports in addition to a media shortcut key. In a few words, for HyperDrive, the limit does not exist.

Compact enough to fit in your palm, HyperDrive is small but mighty. Equipped with a 4K60Hz HDMI port, USB-C 5Gbps 60W Power Delivery port, MicroSD UHS-I port, SD UHS-I port, USB-A 5Gbps port, and a 3.5mm Audio Jack, HyperDrive can handle any of your cables at any time. While you’re all plugged in and working, the built-in shortcut key allows you to “play, pause, fast-forward or rewind your favorite songs, videos, or podcasts without interrupting your workflow.”

Included in all of this are crystal clear video and content displays thanks to HyperDrive’s 4K60Hz HDMI port that allows for double the normal refresh rate. Then, when you’d like to transfer files from one device to HyperDrive, or vice versa, its UHS-I to MicroSD/SD slots makes the process lightning fast, moving as quickly as 104MB/s. HyperDrive also grips tightly to your external device with a Magnetic Grip that links HyperDrive with the side of your USB-C iPad Pro, Air, or mini.

Magnetic grips allow HyperDrive to securely attach to any external device. 

With its media shortcut key, HyperDrive allows you to work and listen to music without interruption.

With its 4K 60Hz HDMI connection port, HyperDrive transfers images and video files with the same quality they came with.

This Apple device merges AirDrop with an external flash drive for seamless file transferring!

Drop is like your typical flash drive device, except it integrates AirDrop into its operation to be more Apple-friendly.

AirDrop is possibly the most overlooked feature on Apple devices. Everything from entire media libraries to scanned PDFs can be sent from one Apple device to another with the click of a button, cutting out the tedious middle part of file transferring that typically requires multiple emails or extra hardware. Zarruck Taiseer, 3D visualizer and product designer, takes the innovation of AirDrop one step further to create an Apple-inspired file transfer and storage flash drive that can receive file transfers via AirDrop and also hold onto them until they’re ready to be transferred to another device.

Apple devices have their own technical language, so working between two Apple devices is always a walk in the park compared to working between one Apple and another non-Apple device. Incorporating Apple’s design and technical language into his product, Taiseer created Drop to make file transferring and storage between Apple devices even easier. Drop operates as a wireless USB Type C and offline external flash drive and an AirDrop file transfer and Thunderbolt 3 data transfer device. Drop is a standalone Apple-inspired device that operates as a flash drive, storage device, and file transfer cable.

Users can AirDrop files from their iPhones or MacBooks to Drop where the files can be stored or transferred to another, Apple or non-Apple, device. When users have a file they’d like to transfer to and store with Drop, they can AirDrop the file the same way they’d AirDrop media from one iPhone to another. With the file stored on Drop, the user can either keep it for safe storage or plug it into their MacBook’s USB Type C port to open the file on their laptops. Alternatively, users can store files offline using DropDrive, a feature that creates a folder on the user’s iPhone to store media files, where the files remain until Drop is brought back online.

Designer: Zarruck Taiseer

Once the files are received from an Apple device by Drop, users can transfer the files to another device.

Since Drop is an Apple concept, Apple features like FindMy can be used to locate Drop.

The offline external drive feature allows users to send files to a folder on their Apple devices and then send the complete folder to Drop.

USB 2 USB, And More….

OMG, where have you been USB2USB? All the times that I had to go through the pain of transferring photographs and files from one card to another via the computer! What a hassle! Imagine the freedom to transfer directly from one USB or SD card to another without the via media. If only this wasn’t a concept and a reality, boy would our geeky lives become easier to share.

Being only 3 millimeters thick, USB2USB fits easily into your wallet. It is equipped with an OLED touchscreen, an SD card slot, and two USB connectors. This device can read almost all popular types of external memory cards and flashdrives in the market. Users only need to plug in the external cards or flashdrives to view the files and folders. Then they can browse the contents of the USB flashdrive and a preview of the selected file will be displayed on the background of the touchscreen display. The files can be transferred or copied by using its drag-and-drop function. The USB connectors, which come with flexible rubberized wires that integrate with the shape of the device, are detachable when in use. This device can be charged directly using the USB connector.

The USB2USB is a 2012 red dot award: design concept winner.

BitTorrent Torque alpha puts file seeds on the web, makes desktop apps look stale

BitTorrent Torque alpha puts file seeds on the web, makes desktop apps look stale

Almost without fail, BitTorrent downloads have had to spread through a dedicated client, whether it's on the desktop or a router. Thankfully, BitTorrent Torque has just come in alpha form to liberate the peer download service from its software chains. All that's needed now is a web browser that can parse a JavaScript app. Going the new route gives some freedom to enable sharing that hasn't always been practical: among the tricks in the company's Torque Labs are drag-and-drop sharing, conversion of torrents into traditional downloads and easing the burden on a server for video streaming. The alpha stage leaves Torque with awhile to go before it's ready for the limelight, but experimenters can hit the source link to start tinkering with distributed file sharing today.

New Eye-Fi Mobile X2 card does old tricks, but with less hassle for Android and iOS users

New Eye-Fi Mobile X2 card does old tricks, but with less hassle for Android and iOS users
Direct Mode on an Eye-Fi card makes a lot of sense when you want to beam photos from your camera straight to your smartphone. The latest edition of the Mobile X2 promises to simplify this process by coming pre-configured for Direct Mode from the factory, and being accompanied by a 10-digit pairing code that'll let you register the camera securely with the Eye-Fi app on your Android phone without recourse to a PC. We'd feel more excited about this if Toshiba's FlashAir card hadn't done something similar already using a clever browser-based connection we saw at CES. Still, if Eye-Fi is the brand and workflow you want to stick with, then be advised that this particular Mobile X2 is Japan-only for now. However, a worldwide release is planned at some point, along with an update to the iOS app that'll make the key-code pairing thing work for that other section of humanity too.
