Another mini remote controlled project done for DARPA by Aerovironment. This NAV - Nano Aerial Vehicle - is to mimick a hummingbird. Cool
Ultimately, Darpa program manager Todd Hylton says in a statement, he’d like see “an approximately 10-gram aircraft that can hover for extended periods, can fly at forward speeds up to 10 meters per second, can withstand 2.5-meter-per-second wind gusts.” This project also is expected to “The Hummingbird” to operate inside buildings, and be controllable from up to a kilometer away.
Bored with your flash drive? You might want to get this if you have the budget. Ha2. Made by Toshi Satoji with a design based on Milan, Italy, this aluminum (100%) puzzle cube hides a 16GB USB key in its core.
Another interesting and daring ads concept by Air New Zealand. Do you always ignore the safety video when you are flying? Take a second look of this video, the Air New Zealand staff actually take pre-flight passengers through the flying do’s, don’ts and emergency procedures - wearing nothing but body paint.
As sensational as it may all sound, there’s nothing risqué inside this ‘bare all’ video. Sensitive body parts are cleverly covered up, either by ‘props’ like a lifejacket or careful placement outside of the camera’s view.
But this is not the 1st video that Air New Zealand, “Nothing to Hide” as The Air New Zealand’s advertisement says: ‘At Air New Zealand our fares have nothing to hide, which is why the price you pay includes everything upfront.’
Now this is quite cool. A Silverlit Heli Mission SWAT Truck. Two in one remote controlled vehicle. Using the same controller you will be able to control the truck. Park it and flip a switch and open the back compartment carrying the heli and take off.
Another toy from Bandai for the Godzilla fans. Can rotate head, make some move, move its arms, activate some lights. Unfortunately remote control is in Japanese. Cool or not, what do you think? I am not Godzilla fans myself. ha2.
It might be sound scary but yet interesting. This the army project in building a cyborg beetle by planting electronics to the actual beetle. The beetle can actually be remote controlled to fly, turn left and right. This invention can be used in live saving mission where beetle can carry micro camera and heat sensor. Interesting.
Just right after the launch, reported by one of the white iPhone 3GS owner. It’s unclear exactly what caused this, but what is apparent is an unattractive, brownish / pinkish discoloration on the above handset. The user claims it was caused by overheating during a period of using the GPS and 3G of the phone. Oh man, that is not cool at all.
