Going through Gizmodo I ran upon this nifty little invention. A chair that can be stretch to just about any length. After, reading some of the comments most assume is was made out of paper. Connecting this with another class (Industrial Design) paper could be use to make a lot of interesting things, and this…

Uh, these are all very very real and very vary serious…..

So, last week in class discussion we were talking about copyright (the big C) and how artists could share their work allowing other people to use it, but still keeping their authorship and some saying in the way it is used. Well, it looks like Creative Commons (cc) have come up with a pretty good…

Not much to say about this except be careful…

Mmmm… UMPCs are nice… But a gamer’s UMPC? Hell, that’s my kind of computer! As of now, this is only an idea from Dell, and I doubt it would have as much power as the screenshot above suggests (that game is pretty hardware intensive). However, if UMPCs today were able to attain this kind of…

The device detects the strength of the UV being taken in by the body while tanning. It’s a pretty sweet way to keep those religious tanners out there from…

Here is a great design created to allow a full 6 axis representation for gaming. The idea is very well done. This guy created a controller from what looks like a basic 25 pin serial pci card. He intergrated a CUBLOC 405 module for the resource processing and a Dimension Engineering Accelerometer to sense the…

In this Jon Udell maps his walk through Keene, NH. He does through google maps and you can watch a video of his adventure. Not only does it track where he goes but through bookmarking he adds pictures and video of the different things he sees on his trip. Examples are his pictures of a…

Nintendo’s new game system with it’s motion controllers leave plenty of room for hacking. Here’s two guys with a lot of time on their hands. Either that or they’re grad students. While this may not be practical, think of the possibilities of controlling things with these controllers….

Here’s the pictures from first project. You can also see them at this link: http://desertphotosgt.com/AD406-2
