SendStation Announces smartCharge

The new smartCharge charger looks as good as your iPod shuffle and plugs directly into your car’s cigarette adapter or power outlet without the use of cables. The iPod shuffle plugs directly into the smartCharge and allows the user to move it into a desired position using the built in pivot.

A built-in 3.5 mm (1/8″) industry-standard audio jack allows you to hook up any cassette adapter or use line-in sockets found on many car stereos without constantly re- and disconnecting the iPod — just grab your iPod shuffle and go.

“The smartCharge’s design clearly makes it the most suitable match for the iPod shuffle,” says André Klein, SendStation Systems’

founder. “If you are looking for the perfect companion when taking your shuffle on the road, smartCharge should be your first and only choice. No other charger better reflects the sleek lines of the iPod shuffle.”

In Plato’s Allegory of the Cave, the influential Greek philosopher asks us to imagine a group of prisoners living their entire lives inside a cave. All that they can see of the real world comes from shadows which appear on the cave walls. Eventually, a prisoner escapes and realizes that his or her previous view of existence was based on a low resolution, flat understanding of how the world actually operated.

A slightly pretentious way of starting an article on augmented reality? Perhaps. But the broad idea is the same: Right now, in the pre-AR world, we have a visual perspective that contains only the details of things around us that we can see on the surface. AR, a technology which has been talked about increasingly in recent years, promises to let us go deeper.
