While downloading some music from a hypem music blog I found this picture. I totally want to make something like this now, or anything rather. Been feeling lately like my creative outlets have been blocked. Need to get back in the habit of playing music more regularly or making stupid stuff haha.

From slashdot:

Here’s how it will work: A research ship deploys the robot to the seabed, where it identifies the exact location of the explosive. After sounding a warning to surrounding ship traffic, scaring fish away using a small explosive, and then emitting a ‘seal screamer’ of high intensity noises designed to make the area around the blast quite uncomfortable for marine mammals, Bactec’s engineers erupt a 5 kg blast, forcing the mine to detonate. This process ensures the safety of humans plus any animals living in the surrounding environment. The operation concludes with the robot being redeployed to clear up the scrap of the now-destroyed bomb.

Powered by a computer under her soft silicone “skin,” she employs voice-recognition and speech-synthesis software to answer questions and carry on conversations. She even comes loaded with five distinct “personalities,” from Frigid Farrah to Wild Wendy, that can be programmed to suit customers’ preferences.

Yeah…no matter how ugly these things are you know they’re going to sell.

Panasonic’s 152-inch TV just hit and it’s got 4k by 2k resolution, 3D support and several technologies that speed up display and optimize it for displaying 3D by reducing cross talk.

I always have a hard time explaining the type of technology I work with and what it’s capable of. This article does a great job: http://tiny.cc/hQJiB

The ability to move fluids around a chip on a microscopic scale is one of the most impressive achievements of biochemistry over the last 10 years. Microfluidic chips, which are now produced by a handful of startup companies and a similar number of university-­based foundries, allow biologists and chemists to manipulate tiny amounts of fluid in a precise and highly automated way. The potential applications are numerous, including handheld devices to detect various diseases and machines that can rapidly analyze the content of a large number of individual cells (each holding about one picoliter of liquid) to identify, for example, rare and deadly cancerous mutations.
