Designed by Karim Zaouai, the Tokyoflash Ferrowatch contains a magnetically sensitive liquid (Ferrofluid) sandwiched beneath the glass face. The magnetic charge attracts the fluid to different positions inside the watch to display hours and minutes. Unfortunately, the Ferrowatch is only a concept at this moment. Watch the video after the jump.

Rachel Ilan Simpson has designed the Transparent Universal Translator concept that allows users to have a better understanding of the world around them. The gadget provides three modes including the Window mode, Text mode and Speech mode. In the Window mode, you can point a transparent piece of plastic display to an object, and a database of information will identify it. Meanwhile, the Text mode translates signs, papers, or any other lettered material. And finally, the Speech mode translates the spoken word in real time.

Tokyoflash comes back with a unique timepiece in the form of the High Definition. The watch features an always on multi-colored LCD interface that displays the current time. Hours are shown in square blocks and five minute groups are shown as lines outside the square blocks, in the same position as hours and minutes as a clock face. Meanwhile, single minutes 1-4 and seconds are shown in the central zone.
