In the world of robotics, a faction of the field focuses on what is termed soft robotics. In the case of some MIT researchers, their soft robotics work have resulted … Continue reading
Layering dozens of asynchronous Gifs onto his digital canvas, Johnathan Gillie creates a hyper-kinetic allegory for our overly-stimulated, technology-saturated modern lifestyles.
What are some of the hardest puzzles that you have played with in the past, especially during your younger days? I am quite sure that for many of us, it is the Rubik’s Cube that has confounded us for a fair number of years, until frustration reaches a level where we rearrange the colored stickers manually and consider it “solved”. Well, robots are pretty good at tasks such as the Rubik’s Cube, which is why ARM has stepped forward to announce that it has managed to come up with one of the components in the CUBESTORMER 3 robot, which will include LEGO bricks as well as a Samsung Galaxy S4 smartphone with the goal of breaking the Rubik’s Cube speed record.

If you crossed Hunger Games with Oblivion, mixed in some feelings of Moon, sprinkled a little of action from that Bourne movie without Matt Damon and shook it all up with astronaut suits, futuristic guns, another planet and an eerie death match you would get Project Skyborn, a heart pumping short by Marko Slavnic. It’s amazing.
The enemy of my enemy is my friend, or so the saying goes. While Samsung and Apple have been duking it out at courts over the past few years concerning the various patent infringements that one has accused the other of, along comes ZiiLabs. ZiiLabs has filed a patent infringement lawsuit in the United States against both Samsung and Apple, where the lawsuit claims that selected devices from Samsung (which will include the many Galaxy branded handsets, tablets as well as laptops) and Apple (which will comprise of various iPhone and iPad models, the iMac and MacBook Pro) have actually infringed upon a number of ZiiLabs patents.

Samsung did announce the Galaxy Grand 2 smartphone near the end of last year, and just last month, we have also heard rumblings of a Samsung Galaxy Grand 2 LTE edition that is in the pipeline. Well, it seems that the Galaxy Grand 2 has finally hit the market over in South Korea, where it will be made available across all three carriers that will deliver a large screen experience without breaking the bank.

Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, or so the saying goes, and when it comes to the realm of science, why reinvent the wheel when nature already provides us with the relevant examples of how to run things efficiently? Want to fly? Look to the birds. Intend to explore the depths of the oceans without getting crushed by the immense pressure? Check out the ocean life there, and you’ll figure it out. Want to help a boat remain anchored in an assured manner? Ask a clam. At least, this is what MIT researchers have done, resulting in a robotic version of the clam.

A new App Store section. Not the app store section we needed, but the app store section we deserved….
Don’t you just love concepts? They are able to let your imagination fly free, since there is no need to worry about stuff like the limitations of the laws of physics and what not. The USB flash drive has become such a staple device for all of us, that I would say most of us own at fair number of these even right now. Just when you thought that using a USB flash drive is all too easy; after all, it cannot get easier than plug and play, here is the conceptual dataSTICKIES USB flash drive which might be the template for data storage sometime down the road.
