Big gun

March 8, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood 1 Comment

There’s not much to say about this picture. Should we do a caption competition? Leave your quotes in the comment section below. “You’re going to need more than a d20 for damage!” “No, you can’t roll to conceal” “Oh? You’ve got the weapon speciality. Do you?”

Robot or advertising wanker?

March 5, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Here’s a little test you can do. Watch this video and try to decide whether you’re watching either a robot or a wannabe hipster and advertising wanker? The disclaimer here is that I work in digital marketing so I’m allowed to tease advertising folk. I’m allowed to tease robots as well. so there. What did […]

SpongeBob Terminator in… er, LEGO!

February 20, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Did you know SpongeBob was a killer robot sent back from the future, by Skynet, to stop the saviour of mankind? You did? Well, I admit it, it makes sense. Suddenly everything becomes clear. It’s also true to say that the Terminator SpongeBob is entirely made out of LEGO. Surely it comes as no surprise […]

Samsung’s Omnia 7 is their very first foray into the world of Windows Phone 7, Microsoft’s secret weapon in their war to reclaim market share in the mobile space having haemorrhaged most of it away to their competitors since the emergence of the original iPhone and the subsequent rise of the smartphone platform in general.

Furniture that eats meat will be part of the robot revolution

February 11, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

You have every right to be weirded out by this video. It’s going to show you furniture that eats meat. The furnture traps and consumes insects. Hey, I wonder if you can design furnture that’s particularly keen on eating spiders. That’s just part one. Part two – when things get really scary – is how […]

Phantom of the Floppera

February 10, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Do you still have any old floppy discs hanging around? Let’s just say you have 3 1/2″ drives and two 5 1/4″ drives to go with those discs. Okay, let’ say you could connect those to a microntroller so you could interface with some MIDI sources via MIDI over USB (because it’s easier that way). […]

Extended PlayStation phone advert

February 7, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood 1 Comment

There have been rumours of a PlayStation phone for a while now. Not just rumours but very real demand. Heck. I seriously wonder whether my next phone will be the joyous union of a) internet access and b) gaming. All the speculation was that it would be an Android phone. All the smart money was […]

Kinect controlled robot – the first Kinect controlled model?

January 16, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

This video is frightfully impressive. This is all the work of a hobbyist and V-Sido software, which, if you want, you can get here. As you watch this video think about the robot’s balance. It simply isn’t falling over despite leaning quite some distances in some of the Kinect-powered poses. It’s impressive stuff. This particular […]

January 15, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

There comes a time when you need to draw attention to yourself and your geek cred at the start of any business meeting. The laptop has fired up. The projector is on and you’ve engaged in the F8 battle to ensure the contents of the laptop screen is successfully being shown on the projector’s screen […]
