Have you ever wanted your very own treasure chest? One that was filled with shiny shiny loot! Sorry. Can’t help. What I can do is direct your attention to this Zelda treasure chest that comes complete with its very own Zelda sounds.

Projection mapping gets even better!

April 6, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Yeah; this is an advert. Yeah; this is an other example of 3D projection mapping. Trust me – it’s worth it. This is projection mapping with a twist and the next two minutes will fly by. I strongly suspect you’ll be impressed. Somewhere in Hyundai’s marketing team there someone is smiling smuggly. They have every […]

Bullet time with 24 digital cameras

April 6, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

I still think the Matrix’s bullet time sequences are pretty cool. I know it’s old hat these days but that doesn’t stop me enoying it. If you have 24 digital cameras and a clever timing system then you can produce your own funky bullet time video. That’s exactly what Claudio Giambusso, Alice Stefani and Ivan […]

Dr. James Porter works for the Swedish Seattle hospital where he specialises in robotic surgery. The robot is called da Vinci. In order to demonstrate their combined skill set Porter and da Vinci work on a tiny sheet of paper to fold – and throw – a tiny paper airplane. It’s about the size of […]

Samsung’s Galaxy Ace goes Super Slow-Motion Motion

March 29, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

The creative talents at work helping Samsung promote their Android range have come up with another video. It’s a fun video because you get to see the general look of puzzlement from the curious onlooks. That’s always a bonus. This video is to promote the Galaxy Ace. The phone runs Android 2.2, 150MB + 2GB […]

Brain-powered steampunk mouse

March 29, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

I wonder how many people will see a tweet that says “Brain-powered steampunk mouse”, decide to click and find themselves blinking at this odd and slightly disturbing contraption. It’s a brain-powered steampunk mouse, they’ll think, as if the clue wasn’t in the title of the post. British designer Peter Balch is to “thank” for this […]

An impressive collection of marble machines

March 17, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood 1 Comment

This video is a rolling demo and timeline of a whole series of marble machines. These are simple in theory – a single engine, wood and wire used to channel ball bearings around. I think these machines are strangely hypnotic. They’re also far more sophisticated than they first appear – for example, just getting the […]

Steampunk Motorcycle

March 17, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood 2 Comments

This is a rather awesome motorcycle – a steampunk motorcycle. This cycle was designed and made by Solif Design. I don’t understand a word of written Russian but it’s so very tempting to subscribe to their blog just to keep track of their latest projects.

Mobile Review: HTC Desire HD

March 15, 2011 by Graham Gibson Leave a Comment

Over the past few years HTC have enjoyed a meteoric rise from being a fairly low-key OEM handset manufacturer to becoming one of the leading names in the mobile phone market. Their winning combination of attractive hardware and intuitive software has won them accolades both at industry and grass roots levels. With the Desire HD […]

Kinect-Controlled Evil Genius Similator

March 14, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Brightarcs is a UK based company that builds Tesla coils – no ordinary Telsa coils but musical ones. If you fancy you can hire them to create products that use high voltages and plasma. Sounds like good old fashioned dangerous fun. Geek comedian Tom Scott (who Geek Native has interviewed) took his camera crew to […]
