The Music Machine 2 Reuge by MB&F will set you back a little. Okay; it’ll set you back $21,500 but you’ll have one of a very few made. There are only 66 of these in black and 33 in white. This isn’t the USS Enterprise. This music box is imply inspired by the sci-fi. In […]
Laser science and the Tron Dartboard design
This is a concept design for a laser dartboard. The unit can go up pretty much anywhere and is built from a central hub which projects the laser design of the dartboard out in a radius and darts with gel heads. I’m not sure how sticky the gel darts would be after hitting the floor […]
Tomorrow’s technology is here today with this incredible face projection
Imagine being able to change your face at will. This technology is real. I suppose you could call it projected makeup or something similar and the video does begin with comparatively straight forward examples. Just you wait and watch to see where the technology could take your face. This is the work of Nobumihi Asai […]
Adam Savage shows off his mecha-glove from Hellboy
This is an open-ended but very complex project. It’s also clearly a labour of love for Adam Savage. It’s based on a glove that’s seen briefly in the movie. He wants two gloves and explains this means he’ll try and build four. Why? In the process of building the gloves he fully expects to ruin […]
The world’s first family robot
This video for Jibo is impressive. Will it actually be this good? This could well be the first ever “family robot”. You have the chance to support it. You could say you have the chance to sow the seeds of the robot revolution. No downside to that, right? [Back this Campaign] There are 30 days […]
Superhero Week: Avengers 3D wall lights
These Avenger wall lights are proving to be quite popular. They’re battery operated so you don’t need to drill holes in the wall and I’m told are good for persuading kids to sleep and don’t get too warm either. There’s a few variants but here’s a small collection from Amazon. Thor’s Hammer at Amazon $39.06. […]
Stompy Star Wars AT-AT casemod
Would you build a computer inside an Imperial Walker? This AT-AT casemod rather proves someone would. This casemod began life as a Hasbro AT-AT and gained a Zotax Z86 Mini ITX mobo with an INtel Core i7-2600K CPU, a Sapphire 6870 GPU and 8GB of RAM. Not bad for an AT-AT. Not bad for a […]
USBs for the traveling geek: The Nomad family
I travel a lot. In fact, many (perhaps most) of my blog posts here are written in hotel rooms, in airports or other glamorous places business travel takes people – like railway stations, conference rooms and the Starbucks around the corner when you’re 15 minutes too early for the meeting. My main problem when it […]
PocketScan – help gamers or hurt publishers?
Geek Native features Kickstarters for new RPGs often. Sometimes the blog talks about computer games. Rarely there’s a hardware story. PocketScan was not created for gamers but, wow, check out the uses. Some concerns here. Just because scanning could be easy does not mean gamers should scan copyright books. Authors in this industry don’t get […]
Custom made Tron Legacy Nintendo 64
Deviant artist zoki64 created this Tron Legacy design suitable for a Nintendo 64. It’s all sort of retro-futuristic cool. These picture’s don’t do the design justice. There’s a three+ minute YouTube tour of the design.
