Animatronic doors could scare the Tootsie Rolls out of trick-or-treaters this Halloween
I remember visiting Disney’s Haunted House ride, and being more than slightly creeped out by the doors that were banging loudly, as if some monster behind them was trying to break out. This Animatronic door is incredible advancement that gives a visual appeal. You seriously need to watch the vide...

RePro3D system lets users play with and touch digital 3D characters
This is the RePro3D system, and it is under development by Keio University in Japan. My Source calls it a miniature holodeck, but I don’t believe that this is an accurate description. You can see in the video after the jump what it actually is, and it combines several technologies. The user looks...

The Augmented Reality Fitting Room, the VIPodium
There is nothing that I like more than the application of augmented reality technology. What better way to use it than a virtual fitting room? This is the VIPodium, and it uses Kinnect technology to show what clothes look like when on your person, without you ever having to put them on. You can s...

Osaka Station has projected images on a waterfall
What you are seeing here is a water display at Osaka station in Japan. You can see it in the photo that images are displayed on it. I suggest you go to the video to see how it really works. I was hoping that the images and words that you see in the photo to [...]

Levitatr Portable Bluetooth Keyboard
I must admit that I could not do this post without a physical keyboard with keys. I tried to do a post from my Droid X before, and it just didn’t work. Apparently, James Stumpf has had the same problem when he was typing on his iPad, and he was on a an airplane when [...]

Freddie Wong video shows the possible future of video games
Perhaps you have never heard of Freddie Wong before, but he is the winner of the World Series of Video Games in 2007. He is also a filmmaker with two very popular YouTube channels, and he makes some pretty awesome videos. One of his latest is called Future Motion Control Gaming, and it uses some ...

Paraswift, the first base-jumping robot
You should probably just go straight to the video after the jump so you can see the Paraswift, the world’s first base-jumping robot. What you will see is pretty cool. The Paraswift is able to climb up a wall that looks like a long banner via suction. What really makes it cool is that when [...]

Back to the Future II shoes real, and making a killing!
I’m surprised that we haven’t covered this already, or if we even need to cover this. Nike has finally released the NIKE MAG, which are the shoes that Michael J. Fox wore in Back to the Future II. Nike plans to release only 1,500 of these iconic pairs of shows, and they will go up [...]

Defusable Alarm Clock
I think we all know from movies that bombs are always in the form of rolls of dynamite, a few colored wires, and red numbers that let everyone know when they are going to go off. I figure that something with that awkward of a design just has to be made into a clock timer. [...]

Sonim XP3300 Force is a world record holder
Forget about Gorilla Glass – that seems to be hyped up technology that still fails to prevent cracks on your smartphone’s display when you experience a sudden case of butterfingers (because you were too cheap to pay for a protective case made out of rubber, hence your sweaty palms causing you to ...

SmartKeyboard concept gives your iPhone a touchable keyboard
It seems that touchscreens are here to stay, and I’m certain that touchscreen keyboards will be our future. I’m guessing that the next generation or two will be fully used to touchscreen keyboards with no haptic feedback. Until then, you can use this SmartKeyboard for your iPhone. This is a conce...

Pico Dolly good for small spinning shots
Remember early last decade when every movie was doing shots that imitated the bullet time effect of The Matrix? It seemed like every time I watched a movie there would be this pointless stillshot followed by a circular pan around it. Yes, it was done to death, but this Pico Dolly could reproduce ...

OggBoard could spell the end for “bored” games
This is the Oggboard, and the “Ogg” is short for augmented reality. The Oggboard combines traditional turn-based strategy games with augmented reality, a nifty piece of technology that I have reported on more than once, for sure. The board has a simplistic yet unusual design where each user place...

Nevis Swing is the world’s highest swing at a 300 meter arc
As a child, one of the first “extreme” things that we try is the swing. Not only do we get the rush of a controlled fall, but the backwards rush as well. We really should never grow out of the swing, but they don’t make swingsets for adults. If you are looking for the thrill [...]

Nsquared Seamless Computing lives up to its name
What you are about to see in the video after the jump is known as Seamless Computing, and it really is where we are headed, as far as technology is concerned. The demonstration is courtesy of a company known as Nsquared, and it shows how a Windows 7 Mobile Phone, Kinect, and Surface can work [...]

MIT Media Lab City Car could be our automobile future
MIT Media Lab showed off this particular CityCar at a conference lately, and it is very good. Just to let you know, it is still a concept, but it should be full-sized and in production in about 2013. You can watch a video of it after the jump, and you can see that it has [...]

MIT Student creates his own grappling-hook gun
Grappling hook guns. From Batman to Rorschach from Watchmen, everybody wants them, but nobody really makes them. Unless there is some sort of spy company that actually makes them. Sort of like Q did for James Bond. An MIT mechanical engineering student has essentially given the world what it want...

Scene from 2001: A Space Odyssey used in court case with the iPad and Galaxy Tab
I suppose that I shouldn’t be surprised that there is an ongoing lawsuit between Apple and Samsung over the similarity between the Apple iPad and the Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1. Apple has stated that “iPad design” which is a rectangular flat computer, is quite like the Samsung Tab, but it is also si...
