Do you remember the Hexacopter? – first manned flight with electric multicopter

boeck — Sat, 26 Nov 2011 12:37:21 +0000

Heiß!

Quote Youtube:

On October 21st, 2011, Thomas Senkel of e-volo made the first manned flight with an electric multicopter at an airstrip in the southwest of Germany. The flight lasted one minute and 30 seconds, after which the constructor and test pilot stated: "The flight characteristics are good natured. Without any steering input it would just hover there on the spot". This could be the future of flight, piloting a device as easy as a car.

Stylus Mask for Touchscreen Devices

boeck — Wed, 02 Nov 2011 19:26:58 +0000

Quote Vimeo

I sometimes use my touchphone in the bath. I know it’s stupid. One problem I encounter is that when put my left hand in the water without thinking, it gets wet and unusable for touchscreen navigation. It is too risky to try to hold and navigate with one hand. I found that I could use my nose to scroll but I couldn’t see where my nose was touching precisely. It was at that point that I came up with this idea of a nose extension ‘finger’ that would allow navigation while my phone is firmly held by one hand.

Floating Orchestra

boeck — Fri, 21 Oct 2011 18:32:45 +0000

Zappelballs!

Quote: Vimeo The Idea: 19 spheres come to life, as you become a supernatural conductor. Each ball becomes an orchestral instrument that increases in volume as it physically rises. You can create your own soundscape whilst the balls levitate and dance to the music. This is currently controlled via the touch screen of an iPhone, however, it may soon be naturally controlled with your movement.

World’s Largest Artificial Tornado

boeck — Mon, 18 Apr 2011 22:00:33 +0000

The Mercedes-Benz Museum in Stuttgart, Germany, designed by UNStudio, can repurpose its internal ventilation system to form an artificial tornado

“The twister takes around seven minutes to materialize,” Autoblog explains, “and is generated by 144 jets and 28 tons of air. The low pressure area at the center of the tornado works to create a jet stream that draws smoke out of the building’s corridors and funnels it upwards and out an exhaust vent on the roof.” It is also more than 100 feet tall—making it the official world-record holder for the World’s Largest Artificial Tornado.

Homemade Pulse Laser Gun

boeck — Thu, 10 Mar 2011 19:15:10 +0000

German hacker [Patrick Priebe] recently constructed a laser pulse gun that looks so good, it could have easily come off a Hollywood movie set. Its sleek white and black exterior adds intrigue, but offers little warning as to how powerful the gun actually is.

Fitted with a Q-switched Nd:YAG laser, it fires off a 1 MW blast of infrared light once the capacitors have fully charged. The duration of the laser pulse is somewhere near 100ns, so he was unable to catch it on camera, but its effects are easily visible in whatever medium he has fired upon. The laser can burst balloons, shoot through plastic, and even blow a hole right through a razor blade.

10 Jahre: All Your Base Are Belong to Us

boeck — Sun, 20 Feb 2011 00:37:26 +0000

Das gute alte “All Your Base are belong to us” Meme feiert zehnjähriges Netz-Jubiläum. Fühlt sich gar nicht so alt an.

All your base are belong to us (kurz AYBABTU), wortwörtlich auf deutsch übersetzt All eure/deine Stützpunkt sind gehören zu uns oder auch Euer/dein ganzer Stützpunkt sind gehört zu uns, ist ein Zitat aus der Eröffnungssequenz des ComputerspielsZero Wing und steht für ein Internet-Phänomen der Jahre 2001 und 2002. In der Netzkultur wird mit dieser Phrase in der Regel auf die Verwahrlosung von Sprache und Form im Internet angespielt. ~ Wikipedia
