Tom Tlalim, a Super Smash Bros: Brawl addict, has thought up a new way to combine eight nintendo Wii controllers. Using this idea, he combines the controllers and uses them to create sound through a program called SuperCollider. The controllers are then attached around your body, such as your arms and legs. To create sound, you must flail about and look totally stupid in an attempt to make awesome sounds with your remotes. This is definitely something you might want to look into as an alternative to the Wii Fit if you aren’t a big fan of it. This will keep you in top condition while you run around the room and swing your arms like a mad man trying to fly.

Recently released for public use, the UV-C Light Wand kills 99% of all germs on many surfaces. It was originally used in hospitals to kill germs on surfaces and in the air. This wand uses ‘naturally occurring UV-C light’ to kill the little germs all over your bed. The wand is small enough to be stuffed into a carry-on and easy to use. You just wave it over the bed and you’ve given yourself a nice neat, safe, and comfortable bed to sleep in. With this device only going for $100, it makes one wonder if it is 100% guaranteed to work. Well weighing in at only 13 ounces, this gadget can be used from your bathroom to your personal items such as a hairbrush or toothbrushes. It only uses 4 AA batteries and makes absolutely no noise when operated. This is something to look into. Although, it is harmful if it comes into contact with your skin or eyes, it does seem like a handy tool to keep around the house to use instead of those annoying sprays that leave a nasty smell in the house.

Interactive technology seems to be the keyword today in gaming, communication, cellphone industry etc. Now, it also seems to be making it’s mark on the advertising technology. Samsung and the interactive advertising agency Reactrix systems have join hands to promote what they see as the interactive revolution, using gesture based interface etc. People are already used to gesture based interfaces thanks to iPhone, Wii, Microsoft’s Surface etc. The two companies have partnered to introduce 57 inch interactive displays at Hilton hotel lobbies by the end of the year which can ‘see’ and monitor people’s behavior and attract their attention to the products displayed at the same time.

We can expect Sony’s new Handycam HDR-CX11E camcorder anytime soon in the stores and comes with it’s Smile Shutter stills camera technology. With this, you can monitor a person’s subtle expressions and get the pic with the best smile and can be set to recognize child or adult faces with the help of a Carl Zeiss Vario-Sonnar T* lens. The handycam has a the 1920×1080 Full HD footage and is endowed with 7.6 megapixels. It runs on a high speed BIONZ processor with D-range technology and makes sure you do not have to struggle through the contrast settings as the camera does this job on it’s own. It might shock you to hear that when being used as a stills camera, Sony’s handycam is capable of 10.2 effective megapixels. The camera is equipped with 5.1 channel surround sound, zoom microphone which minimizes background noise, 2.7 inches LCD plus widescreen touch panel, and many other cool features. The pricing is not yet known and Sony has preferred to keep mum about this though it can be pre ordered from it’s site.

Asus’ Eee Box desktop shall be launched in the U.K this August, which initially will run only on Windows XP Home Edition. The notebook runs on a low power consuming N270 processor and the desktop on Atom 230 processor. The CPUs are clocked at 1.6 GHz and contain 512 KB of L2 Cache, 1 GB DDR 2 Memory, 80 GB Hard Drive, 802.11n Wi-Fi, Gigabit Ethernet and a 5 in 1 memory card reader. 3 USB slots and a VGA are provided. The downside is that it comes with Windows XP pre installed and those who particularly use Linux may have to wait for a longer time. At this stage it is not known if the Linux run systems which are expected at a later stage are going to be any cheaper than the Windows XP run systems. The desktops are expected to be priced lesser than the 319 pounds tag attached to the 901.

MRI, Magnetic Resonance Imaging, which has long been used for the purposes of studying the brain, bones, and other internal organs, can now be used for more advanced images of elusive anatomical structures. The 3-D pictures can now be brightened with different colours thanks to miniature magnetic particles. This might help doctors to learn about the disease states and behavior of tissues. This type of molecular imaging might eventually become a part of personalized medicine, which seems to be the keyword in the health industry these days. The technology has been designed by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and the particles act like miniature magnets, causing a predictable shift in the frequency of the radio waves and producing colourful images of tissues and organs which are too tiny to be identified. The technology is apparently non invasive but not yet applicable and would take a while before it can be safely used on humans.

If one has to study the DIY factor amongst us, we would all rate very high. Who doesn’t like to buy one of those Do-It-Yourself kits and feel like a great mechanic. We have had DIY cycles, toys, and even tree houses. The Chinese decided to get a little more creative and decided they wanted to build DIY helicopters. And they really did! Flying has been our ultimate dream because of the anatomical limitations and the Wright Brothers reached that when they built the first aircraft ever. With the Chinese manufacturing and selling the first DIY helicopter, we can all fly to our glory. The helicopters look as good as a home made helicopter could and they fly at a satisfying speed. Surprisingly, the DIY helicopter costs only $3000, less than any car. Be warned, for the kit does not come with a free life insurance and you might end up knocking on heaven’s (or hell’s) door if you don’t read your ‘How To Fly’ manual which is not sold with the DIY helicopter.

Hyundai Japan has just released some information on their new 3-D TV. The TV provides life-like objects and actual 3-D settings. Although they aren’t available overseas, it is still a device that is neat and out to be looked into. The TV is a 46 inch liquid-crystal display that requires 3-D glasses to watch. The TV is about 25% higher priced than the average LCD TV, but the main problem is there aren’t really enough TV programs to watch with it. Currently, there are only a few videos including zoo shots, motorcycle races and some other short scenes.

The TV uses stereoscopic technology called TriDef from DDD Group Plc in Santa Monica, California, which works by sending the same image separately for the left eye and the right eye. This seems like a cool invention that isn’t quite finished. They need to get support for the TV really before it will start selling. I mean who is going to want to buy a TV with almost nothing to watch? I know I wouldn’t. The price tag is currently set at $3,960, which is a pretty hefty price for a special TV with nothing special to put out. I say wait a few years and maybe we shall see an influx on these programs and TVs. That is when I’ll give it a shot, and probably everyone else around the world.

Not too long ago, a man had built a rocket chair out of a recliner. The recliner was built by Bill Delcambre. The price of gas must be killing him for the looks of his “rocket chair” seems it’s just tossing $100 bills out the window. Bill first took his sweet new ride for a spin in 2002 at Reno Air Races. They were very anxious and willing to showoff their awesome Lazy Boy recliner with the massive engine on the back. The recliner looks to be very dangerous and one wrong move could cost him his life. This is something I would look at for my father as a hilarious gift, but then immediately turn away once I saw the price tag. I hope Bill and his friends are happy, they made one of the coolest devices I’ve seen and I can’t have it.

iRobot joins forces with Metal Storm to create the Terminator. Their goal is to create something that is efficient and will save lives on the battlefield without putting them in danger. A Metal Storm spokesman had this to say,

We want our soldiers to have the option of controlling a robot that could go ahead and investigate, engage or deter an enemy and not put human soldiers at risk.

The new robot will mostly be in Iraq and Afghanistan very soon. Although there have been many military robots used, this one seems to have a silver lining. This one not only looks cool, but can shoot over 1 million rounds a minute. The gun is fired through electric charges rather than firepin explosions.
